The Pittsburgh Penguins have inquired about New York Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh, according to Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos.
However, The Athletic's Josh Yohe says the team isn't believed to be in on McDonagh.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have also inquired about the Rangers captain in recent days, but the asking price might be too high for the club, according to The Athletic's James Mirtle.
This development comes after it was reported the Maple Leafs weren't on McDonagh's no-trade list.
McDonagh has spent his entire eight-year career with the Rangers. The 28-year-old, who has put up 26 points in 49 games this season, still has one year remaining on his contract with a cap hit of $4.7 million.
