Anyway, what teams are *actually* the frontrunners for Simmonds? Nashville, Boston, Winnipeg, maybe Vegas?

I'd be surprised if Winnipeg or Vegas wants Wayne that much.

Nashville, Boston seem like good spots. Maybe Colorado, Dallas, Toronto.
Winnipeg actually has the right kind of players to get it done if they want — young, NHL-ready (or close to it) prospects who aren’t essential parts to a team that is gunning for the Cup. If they want him, I’m not sure another team will be able to put together a better offer.

Edit: I’m talking guys like Roslovic, Vesalainen, Lemieux.

Do all teams have knowledge of a player's limited NTC team list? Can Fletcher use Chiarelli as the "mystery bidder" to see if he can squeeze more out of other teams?

That information is accessible to all teams. It has been reported that Simmonds has as many as 12 teams in his contract to which he cannot be dealt without his approval. Agents and the NHLPA are also aware of the info and can be used as sources, too.
