A insider for the Daily Faceoff, Matt Larkin has labeled the Ottawa Senators, Los Angeles Kings, Colorado Avalanche and the New Jersey Devils as teams that could land Boston Bruins goaltender Linus Ullmark.
The Kings and Avalanche have both been victims of poor goaltending when it mattered the most in the playoffs, acquiring someone like Ullmark could be game changing for them.
Where as for the Devils and Senators both had similar problems, but ultimately it came down to their overall play, not just goaltending, but they could both also benefit from acquiring Ullmark in the off-season as well.
Linus Ullmark has most say in where he goes with his 15-team no-trade clause, which will cause some complications for the Bruins, especially if these teams are on his no-trade clause and he isn't willing to waive it.
Ullmark has 1 year left on his deal at $5 million and then after that he will have more of a say on where he will go.
