Today a new report from NHL insider Pierre LeBrun has confirmed that trade talks have re-started involving Flames goaltender Jacob Markstrom with the New Jersey Devils. The Calgary Flames have been on the verge of a full rebuild for several seasons. This offseason it seems like they might lean into that rebuild by trading goaltender Jacob Markstrom. According to Pierre LeBrun talks have begun with the New Jersey Devils and there is confidence that Jacob Markstrom would waive his no-trade clause to end up with the Devils. <q>Those conversations with the Flames have taken up again. We know that those two teams almost had a deal done before the trade deadline earlier this season before March 8. It fell apart, but the Devils remain interested in Jacob Markstrom and as importantly, Jacob Markstrom has a full no-move, but my understanding is he's willing to go to New Jersey - Pierre LeBrun</q> This comes just a few months after another insider Elliotte Friedman confirmed the New Jersey Devils were interested in Jacob Markstrom. A trade fell through at the trade deadline but the Devils focus has remained on Jacob Markstrom. <q>I believe the Devils have decided that Jacob Markstrom is going to be their goalie, they hope. If they don't get Markstrom done this week, they are going to wait to try to do it in the summer - Elliotte Friedman</q> However, Pierre LeBrun confirms there will be more competition on the trade market this time around. Several other teams are potentially interested in the 34-year-old goaltender. <q>There are other teams now that weren't there on Markstrom before the trade deadline that have now entered the picture. The Flames are getting calls from multiple teams on Markstrom, not just from the Devils... At this point in time, there's still a difference of opinion on the return, on what it should cost the Devils to get Jacob Markstrom out of Calgary and the Flames are willing to be patient in terms of having a team meet their price</q> With this in mind Jacob Markstrom could hold a lot of power within this process. His no-movement clause means he can deny trades as much as he wants. If he truly wants to land in New Jersey with the Devils he can ensure that happens. As the summer continues talks with several teams will likely intesify. If more reports come in regarding this situation we will continue to follow up on the developing situation.
