Philadelphia Flyers forward Morgan Frost has been making waves in the rumor mill lately. It’s been a tough season for the 25-year-old, as he has one goal, six points and a minus-10 rating in 17 games. He also has just one point in his last seven games.

If Frost’s struggles continue, we could see the impending restricted free agent move this offseason. But which teams could consider targeting him? Now let’s discuss three of them.
Chicago Blackhawks
NHL insider Elliotte Friedman recently discussed the possibility of the Chicago Blackhawks being a potential suitor for Frost. That makes sense, since they’ve been looking for a center on the trade market. Additionally, since Frost is only 25 years old, he could fit into their rebuilding plans if acquired.
If the Blackhawks were to acquire Frost, he would fit right into their top six and power play. Additionally, bringing in a pass-first forward like Frost could help warm up the Blackhawks’ scorers.
Nashville Predators
Things are going terribly for the Nashville Predators this season. They have a record of 7-11-3 and have won just three of their last ten games. Due to their poor start, they have been actively scouring the trading market. They’re looking for help in the middle, and Frost could offer it to them.
Frost would give the Predators another option to consider for their second-line role if acquired. This is an area where the Predators could use an upgrade right now.
Toronto maple leaves
The Toronto Maple Leafs would benefit from increasing their center depth so a player like Frost could catch their attention. If acquired, Frost could fit nicely into their top nine and give them another player to work with for their second power play unit.
