3 Potential Trade Destinations for Frank Vatrano

Anaheim Ducks forward Frank Vatrano has been the subject of trade rumors since the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline. While the Ducks did not move him during this past season, the possibility of him being dealt during this summer is there. Let's discuss three teams who could look to acquire him now. 

New York Rangers: The New York Rangers have been looking to add to their top six, and they could consider a reunion with Vatrano because of it. They were one of the teams linked to Vatrano at the deadline. Given how strong of a season he just had and his past success as a Ranger, there could be a good fit here. 

Carolina Hurricanes: It has been a tough offseason for the Carolina Hurricanes, as they lost several key players. There is no question that they could use another solid forward in their top nine, so it would not be shocking in the slightest if they tried to land Vatrano this offseason. 

Buffalo Sabres: The Buffalo Sabres have yet to add a much-needed top-six forward this offseason. Because of this, they could end up entering the mix for Vatrano. He would give their forward group a big boost as they look to end their 13-year playoff drought.
