Report: Teams expressing interest in Flames' Jiri Hudler

Arguably the league's best point-per-game value is getting a price check.

Calgary Flames forward Jiri Hudler - who finished eighth in league scoring at a $4-million rate - is generating interest in the trade market from rival general managers, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

An unrestricted free agent at the end of next season, Hudler will command a raise next summer but would also fetch a considerable return on the open market.

Friedman does note that a deal is unlikely, considering his value to the organization playing alongside Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan.
