Nick Alberga: (off of Tom Gulitti’s tweet that Anaheim Ducks forward Adam Henrique is week-to-week after getting injured on Tuesday) The Carolina Hurricanes were one of the teams that had some interest in the Ducks forward.

NHL Rumors: Pittsburgh Penguins – Jeff Petry, and the need to get creative

Now what for Blue Jackets defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov

Aaron Portzline: Multiple team and league sources confirmed that the Columbus Blue Jackets thought they had a Vladislav Gavrikov trade in place with the Boston Bruins for more than a week. A source said that Bruins kept asking for more time.

Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen wouldn’t comment.

Gavrikov has been scratched for the past week for ‘trade-related reasons.’ Could he return to the lineup tonight?

The Edmonton Oilers, Los Angeles Kings and Toronto Maple Leafs have been looking for help on the blue lines.

  • Pierre LeBrun: Wonder if the Oilers, Kings or Maple Leafs could get Gavrikov at a smaller discount now?

The Blue Jackets had wanted to deal Gavrikov before Jakob Chychrun gets dealt. Two sources said that they were interested in flipping the first-round pick they would have gotten from the Bruins in an offer to the Coyotes for Chychrun. The Blue Jackets won’t trade their own first-round pick, so they’d need to acquire another one.

NHL Rumors: Jakob Chychrun – Senators, Kings, Blue Jackets and Blues

There was the report that the Blue Jackets and Coyotes had a deal worked out at the draft last year but Chychrun wanted to go to playoff contender. The Blue Jackets later signed Johnny Gaudreau and Chychrun changed his mind but a deal couldn’t be worked out.
