Top candidates and honourable mentions for Pavel Zacha if he becomes available

Lyle Richardson of Bleacher Report: If the Boston Bruins fall out of the playoff race and decide to make some changes, they could consider trading 28-year-old forward Pavel Zacha. He carries a $4.75 million cap hit, one year left on his deal, and an eight-team no-trade clause. The Bruins may not be sellers, but if they are, teams will be calling. The Bruins could get a first-round pick or a quality prospect for him.

Top candidates if he becomes available include the Carolina Hurricanes, Minnesota Wild, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers, and the Vancouver Canucks.

Honourable mentions go to the Buffalo Sabres, Calgary Flames, Edmonton Oilers, New Jersey Devils, Philadelphia Flyers and the Toronto Maple Leafs
