With the Seattle Kraken likely to miss the playoffs in their inaugural season, they will look to move some assets at the NHL trade deadline for draft picks and prospects.
One asset that Kraken GM Ron Francis might get a call on is Mark Giordano. He is an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season and the Kraken will likely get calls on his availability.
Giordano was quoted recently, saying, “Until they kick me out. I’m going to try to stick around as long as I can.”
If the Kraken do not offer him a contract before the March 22 NHL trade deadline, you would have to think the Calgary Flames might contact the Kraken about Giordano’s availability.
Giordano does have a modified no-trade clause where he can list 19 teams he can be traded to and you would have to think the Flames are on that list.
