3 Potential Trade Destinations for Flames' Andrei Kuzmenko

The Calgary Flames are in a major rebuild, and they have moved several players since last season because of it. This is expected to continue this upcoming season, and Andrei Kuzmenko is one of their biggest trade candidates because of it. Due to this, let's discuss three teams who could look to acquire the pending unrestricted free agent now.

Carolina Hurricanes: The Carolina Hurricanes could be a team to watch when it comes to Kuzmenko. It is no secret that they could use another scoring winger, and Kuzmenko can be just that when he is playing at his best. Kuzmenko could be a nice addition to their middle six if acquired and also give them another weapon to work with on their power play. 

Los Angeles Kings: The Los Angeles Kings are another club who could make sense for Kuzmenko. When looking at their current roster, it is fair to argue that they could use a bit of help in their middle six. Thus, if they are in the playoff race this season and Kuzmenko is officially made available, they will be a team to pay attention to. 

Nashville Predators: The Nashville Predators had a very big offseason, and the expectation is that they will be among the NHL's top Western Conference teams this season. Due to this, it would not be shocking if they looked to continue to add talent to their roster this season, and Kuzmenko would be a solid option for them.
