Top NHL Insider Believes Star Second Overall Pick Quinton Byfield May Be Available for Trade

The trade deadline speculation is heating up in a big way, and now, it appears as though the LA Kings could be tempted to move rising star Quinton Byfield.

With just over a week to go until the 2025 NHL trade deadline, speculation is heating up in a big way, and after some of the moves we've already seen this season, it's safe to say that absolutely anything could happen.

There's already names like Brad Marchand, Alex Tuch and even the already traded Mikko Rantanen floating out there in trade rumours, and now, top Insider Nick Kypreos has shocked with another name on his recent trade board.

At 22-years of age, Byfield has one of the highest ceilings in the NHL, but with the Kings looking up at two loaded teams in the Pacific Division, Kypreos believes they could consider dealing Byfield for a major upgrade.

Teams like the Buffalo Sabres and Chicago Blackhawks among others could be interested in the former first-round pick, so while it's not guaranteed that he'll be on the move, it could be one of the biggest deals in recent memory if he is indeed traded ahead of the deadline.
