Kraken Rumors: 2 Potential Landing Spots for Jordan Eberle


The Seattle Kraken are having a disappointing season, which means we are likely to see them be sellers at the deadline. Jordan Eberle, a pending UFA, has been picking up some steam as a trade candidate because of it. Let's discuss two teams who should look to add the veteran winger now. 

New York Islanders: The Islanders have missed Eberle since they lost him through the expansion draft to the Kraken. Their middle six could use a boost offensively, so it would make a lot of sense for them to bring back Eberle. He would provide a jolt to their power play as well. 

Washington Capitals: The Capitals will be on the hunt for forward depth this season. Their top six needs improvement, and Eberle has the potential to give them just that. At a minimum, he would be a good addition to their third line and give them more secondary scoring in the process.

We will now need to wait and see if Eberle ends up being traded to one of these two clubs from here.
