Breaking: Another talented RFA has demanded a trade after contract dispute.

It appears that another unrestricted free agent unhappy with his current situation is looking to be traded.

While there has been no official trade demand there's no doubt that the comments made by National Hockey League player agent Darren Ferris indicate that he is looking to force a move for his client, 23 year old forward Tobias Rieder.

“I think it would be best for both parties if they just traded him,” Ferris wrote as per Arizona Sports' Craig Morgan. “He is really disappointed with them.”

It's the latest in a summer that has been filled with restricted free agent contract disputes and one that is starting to fill up with trade demands from those players as well. 

Reider put up 14 goals and 23 assists last season and would likely be looking for a relatively reasonable deal in the neighborhood of $2.5 million per season, so it's not hard to imagine this trade getting traction around the NHL very quickly.

More to come.
