NHL Trade Rumor: Red Wings Could Target Travis Moen

The Detroit Red Wings could have their collective eye on winger Travis Moen ahead of the trade deadline. Ansar Khan suggests the Red Wings may offer the Montreal Canadiens a decent (not elite) prospect or second-round draft pick in exchange for the UFA to be. As a big, tough, hard-working winger, Moen could suit the Wings’ need for an effective presence on the penalty kill.

“Coach Mike Babcock might have had Moen in mind when spoke recently about his desire to add a ‘heavy winger’. Moen would make the Red Wings harder to play against and help a mediocre penalty kill. He played a key role on Anaheim’s 2007 Stanley Cup-winning club.”
