Teams are circling around defenseman Kris Russell, while multiple teams are believed to be interested in forward Kris Versteeg, according to Darren Dreger of TSN.
The Toronto Maple Leafs were reportedly interested in Russell, while his agent has denied the defenseman turned down a significant offer from the club.
The shot-blocking specialist was dealt by Calgary to Dallas prior to the 2016 trade deadline, while Versteeg scored 15 goals in 77 games split between Carolina and Los Angeles last season.
