He’d also need to lack a no-trade or no-movement clause, despite the frequency with which NHL teams hand those out.Kev...

This is mostly a time for men’s college basketball fans to fret — about players lost to the transfer portal, about desirable targets in the portal that their team didn’t get, about players their team did get, because how much money did that cost and is it going to tick off the previously highest-paid star player?Advertisement
