Kucherov Trade Request Report Unconfirmed

Pierre LeBrun reports Kucherov’s agent indicated he had informed all parties of a desire to leave Tampa Bay; the report cites a six-year, $20 million-per-year ask and surprise among GMs. GM Julien BriseBois says he will not trade Kucherov. No transaction or confirmed negotiations are reported, and Montreal, Dallas, and Utah remain speculative destinations.
