NHL Rumors: 3 Trade Destinations For Kings' Phillip Danault

Los Angeles Kings forward Phillip Danault is the latest big name in the rumor mill, as NHL insider Frank Seravalli reported that the veteran center has been drawing interest.

Due to this, let's look at three teams that could make sense as landing spots for Danault.

Detroit Red Wings

The Red Wings could use some help at the center position, and a player like Danault could grab their attention because of it. If acquired, he could work well in their middle six and on their penalty kill. Furthermore, he would give them another solid veteran to help mentor their young players.

Montreal Canadiens

Could the Canadiens and Danault reunite? It is not a secret that the Canadiens have been looking to improve at the center position, and Danault had success during his stint in Montreal. With this, he could be a player that the Canadiens consider bringing back.

New Jersey Devils

The Devils could also be a team to keep an eye on when it comes to Danault. They could use an upgrade at their third-line center spot, and Danault would have the potential to provide them with just that if acquired.
