Bob McKenzie was on Vancouver’s TSN 1040 on Tuesday morning.

On Ryan O’Reilly:

“I think the Avs are starting to take some talk on him, but again, I think it’s more to gauge the marketplace than a firm commitment that they’re absolutely trading him. I think it’s more likely O’Reilly will be traded at some point here than – yeah, more likely than not likely he’ll be traded. But at the same time, it will depend on what the deal is and the financial negotiations that go on with any contract.

“So like I said – if I were a betting man, I’d say Ryan O’Reilly is more likely to be traded, but it’s not a 100 percent slam dunk that it will happen before the draft or at all.

“So we’ll see where it goes from here.”
