NHL Trade Rumors: 3 More Teams Linked To Cam Fowler

Monday, September 16, 2024 , ,

According to Joe Yerdon of Bleacher Report, Anaheim Ducks defenseman Cam Fowler has been linked to three additional teams—St. Louis Blues, Ottawa Senators, and Nashville Predators—as trade rumors surrounding the veteran puck-mover intensify. 

As the Ducks continue their rebuild, Fowler, who has spent 14 seasons in Anaheim and is just 26 games shy of reaching 1,000 played, remains a valuable asset for teams seeking an experienced blue-liner with offensive skills. 

With two years remaining on his contract, Fowler’s name has emerged as a trade candidate, though his four-team no-trade clause limits the potential destinations.

Yerdon thinks the St. Louis Blues are particularly interested in Fowler after losing Torey Krug to a long-term injury. Fowler's $6.5 million cap hit mirrors Krug’s, making him a natural fit to replace the offensive production lost on the blue line and support the Blues' playoff aspirations. 

Meanwhile, the Ottawa Senators, aiming to return to postseason contention, are eyeing Fowler as a replacement for Jakob Chychrun, who was traded earlier.

In Nashville, Yerdon thinks the Predators see Fowler as a luxury addition to an already bolstered roster. 

Following their offseason acquisitions of Steven Stamkos, Jonathan Marchessault, and Brady Skjei, adding Fowler would further fortify their defense as they prepare for a tough battle in the Central Division. 

With strong competition from teams like the Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche, Fowler would complement Nashville’s push to solidify their playoff chances and deepen their defensive lineup.
