Jacob Markstrom Waives His No-Trade Clause
There have been rumors of the Devils potentially acquiring Calgary Flames goaltender Jacob Markstrom via trade, but talks have stalled recently. However, insider James Nichols reports that Markstrom had previously waived his no-trade clause for a potential move to New Jersey before discussions fell through.
According to Frank Seravalli, the trade was close to being finalized, with Markstrom poised to join the Devils. It's possible that both teams could revisit this trade as the NHL's March 8th trade deadline approaches.
Earlier reports suggested that Jacob Markstrom might be the next player to leave the Calgary Flames in GM Craig Conroy's rebuilding efforts. Markstrom himself acknowledged that his future with the team is uncertain, stating that it's ultimately up to Calgary management.
While Markstrom isn't actively seeking a trade, he's open to the possibility if it's in the team's best interest. Despite the trade rumors, Markstrom remains focused on playing and being a good teammate.
Markstrom's positive attitude amid uncertainty is commendable, showing his resilience and dedication to the game.
