Given that the Flames have some big time UFA's that they are ready to trade, it comes as no surprise now that Jacob Markstrom is reportedly on the trade block too.
In 26 games this year, Markstrom has put together a 2.59 GAA and a .912 save percentage, and now teams around the league are looking to land the star net minder.
While we can make easy links to the likes of Toronto and Edmonton, Eklund of Hockey Buzz has now revealed that both New Jersey and Buffalo are interested in the veteran goaltender.
Recent reports have revealed that Calgary GM Craig Conroy would need to be blown away to ask Markstrom to waive his NMC, and given the prospects for both of these teams, that might just happen, but for now it appears a move could happen at any time.
