While Alex Pietrangelo's preference is to remain with the StLouisBlues, two things happened this week that make him signing with the MapleLeafs a little more likely in these parts. lukefoxjukebox explores that and more in the latest Quick Shifts.

“He was right at the near the top of our board when we picked in the second round and we selected Sean Durzi [at 52nd overall] and then Pittsburgh selected him [at 58],” Dubas says. “He was right there for us. We were kind of hoping he would fall to the next pick that we had gotten in a previous trade [76th overall, where the Leafs chose Semyon Der-Arguchintsev]. So, we’d done a lot of work on him leading up to the draft.

The Penguins had previously signed off on loan agreement with Lulea, which Dubas was happy to honour. Dubas says he’s open to accruing space early in the season “so that we could add once we got into the year via trade — something that we really haven’t been able to do for a while, really, aside from the [Jake] Muzzin deal,” he noted.Of all the players I’ve had the privilege of watching live this month inside the Eastern Conference rink, two forwards I knew were good have stood out as great upon repeat viewings.

Carolina GM Don Waddell must also take into account the future of No. 1 defenceman Dougie Hamilton, who will also enter a contract year in 2020-21. The 34-year-old Dallas Stars netminder has always carried the load when Ben Bishop goes down with injury, but until this summer the career backup had appeared in just two career playoff games.
