Rumour Round-Up: Hiller, Hudler, Frolik, Okposo, Talbot

With the National Hockey League awards out of the way, the 30 general managers are all down in Sunrise, Florida getting prepared for the 2015 NHL Draft. With the salary cap set for 2015-16, teams are now beginning to talk turkey in terms of trades.
And considering the cap space and flexibility the club has, the Calgary Flames are factoring into trade rumours in a pretty significant way.
As you can see, there are a LOT of moving pieces and they fall into two main categories: the crease and the forward ranks.
DUBNYK, HILLER & TALBOT
FORWARD FRENZY
OK, we’ll say it. Hudler was great all season long, but was invisible for the entire playoff run. He had a four-point night in the clincher versus Vancouver, yes, but had points in just three of 11 games.
He’s a year away from unrestricted free agency, and in his quest to get bigger up front we think Treliving would move Hudler for something younger and bigger in a heartbeat.
