On the NHL’s trade deadline day, the New York Islanders are in playoff position but far from contender position. They have a Vezina candidate (favorite?) goalie and a Calder favorite who have driven an exciting season above expectations. Their power play is abysmal, and their overall team defense often leaves us scratching our head. They […]

Happy deadline day, everybody! As I do every year for the NHL’s annual swap ‘n shop, I’m back with the 2026 edition of the Trade Deadline Live Blog to keep you current on all things Edmonton Oilers and the NHL at large. Instead of doing anything remotely productive today, I’m planting myself in front of…
Last season too many of the Panthers opposing quarterbacks left the field at the end of the game with mostly clean jerseys. Sure, their jerseys may have been marred by sweat, spit, and maybe a Gatorade spill, but too few of them had grass stains. Lacking a signature edge rusher, the Panthers defense struggled to […]
As you certainly know, the Cubs are televising very few games this spring. The good news, such as it is, is that going forward there are just two spring games remaining that will have no TV or radio coverage — Tuesday, March 10 at the Rangers, and Wednesday, March 11 vs. the Royals at Sloan […]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers are adding on former MVP and longtime Pittsburgh Pirate, Andrew McCutchen. Jeff Wilson says McCutchen will get a shot at securing a part-time role on the opening day roster. Evan Grant has observations from the Rangers’ first spring training night game where Jake Burger homered off Cole Ragans. The DMN’s […]
Colton Parayko made big headlines around the NHL on Thursday by announcing that he was invoking his no-trade clause and was turning down a trade to the Buffalo Sabres. The St. Louis Blues had reached that tentative agreement on Wednesday night. We then heard that he was still open to approving a trade to one of two prefered destinations on the West Coast. But a big development this morning has been revealed. TSN Insider Pierre LeBrun tells us that Parayko won't be going anywhere to...
"My head's scratching, I can't believe they haven't got a deal done for him to stay in Florida at this point." That's what insider Kevin Weekes had to say about Panthers' icon Sergei Bobrovsky on TSN's Trade Centre Friday morning. The 37-year-old netminding legend has two Vezina Trophies and has backboned the Panthers' two Stanley Cup runs, but he's a pending unrestricted free agent, and there appears to be no deal on an extension in sight. That means a stunning trade could be coming tod...
Adam Fox simply said he’ll evaluate the Rangers’ future before committing to his own. That reasonable answer somehow ignited a full-blown panic across the fanbase. Maybe it’s time to take a breath.
As I write this, Edmonton Oilers general manager Stan Bowman has said the team is unlikely to make any more moves. But the team could still change by the time you read this. So chuck it out, take this with a grain of salt. As the Oilers have added Connor Murphy, Jason Dickinson, and Colton…
The New York Islanders could have a new trade piece emerging ahead of Friday's 3pm trade deadline. According to Stefen Rosner of The Elmonters , forward Max Shabanov is open to a trade as he looks for a bigger opportunity elsewhere after struggling to secure a consistent role on Long Island this season. #Isles F Maxim Shabanov is a name to watch ahead of the Trade Deadline. Told he's open to a change of scenery to gain more #NHL experience. That + more on this trade deadline day [Free Fr...

With five straight 20-goal seasons, Utah Mammoth top line center Nick Schmaltz is expected to be one of the top available unrestricted free agents this summer—IF he makes it there. According to insider Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet , not only do the Mammoth not intend to trade their star pivot today, it doesn't sound like he'll make it to July 1 either: I am not expecting the Mammoth to trade Nick Schmaltz . I’ve heard there’s been positive movement in contract negotiations, and c...
The Minnesota Wild were projected to be one of the biggest players at the trade deadline, filling up the holes on their roster as they set to truly contend for a Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history. And they have been involved.
Earlier in the week, they nabbed up center Michael...
Looks like we (almost) made it ♪ It’s Friday, March 6, and the NHL’s trade deadline is upon us. After 3:00 p.m. ET today, no more deals can be made.
Yesterday, the Florida Panthers traded veteran defenseman Jeff Petry to the Minnesota Wild for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft. The pick becomes a fifth-round selection if Minnesota wins two playoff rounds and Petry plays in 50% or more of the Wild’s postseason games during those first two rounds.
The 38-year-old P...
The Carolina Hurricanes have been very active in trade discussions this week, and while they've been tied to landing a couple of big fish, one on defence, and one up front, it turns out they've been making trade offers which include disgruntled forward Jesperi Kotkaniemi. Elliotte Friedman: Not a coincidence Jesperi Kotkaniemi was back in the Carolina lineup on Wednesday night, but not convinced the Canucks will do it. (This would not be a Pettersson deal.) - Sportsnet (3/5) Kotkaniemi, 25, is...
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
Welcome to Trade Deadline Day. After 1:00 PM MT on Friday, teams loading up for a playoff run will no longer be able to trade for players from other clubs. In other words, whatever your roster looks like by the end of today is the one you’re taking into the stretch drive. The Edmonton Oilers…
Well, the Tampa Bay Lightning made their first move of the trade deadline. They placed Curtis Douglas on waivers with the intent to assign him to the Syracuse Crunch. It’s a move that some have been expecting for quite awhile, and perhaps the team felt that, with as many transactions flying around, it’s as good as time as any to try and slip the big man through. The move also opens up a roster spot and allows Douglas to participate in the AHL playoffs should he clear today at 2:00 PM.

The Nashville Predators have indicated their willingness to join the selling brigade with a couple of deals already, but there still could be a bigger one afoot. According to insiders everywhere, Jonathan Marchessault will almost certainly be on the move. Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet : I do believe there are serious efforts to find Jonathan Marchessault a new home. Darren Dreger on Barn Burner podcast: I think the Preds would trade Jonathan Marchessault as soon ...
The Vancouver Canucks are open for business and after Tyler Myers and Conor Garland were recently traded, expect much more of the same from Jim Rutherford and Patrik Allvin on Friday. The Canucks are in the midst of a fire sale and have held trade discussions around Elias Pettersson with the Carolina Hurricanes and Detroit Red Wings. They've also been in talks on Evander Kane, Brock Boeser, Drew O'Connor, Teddy Blueger, and even David Kampf. There's been no shortage of interest in Boeser...
You know you're a respected hockey player, when you don't even have formal no-trade protection on your contract, and are able to nix trades just based on a handshake agreement. That's certainly been the case for Nashville Predators center Ryan O'Reilly, as teams continue to call the Predators management brass about the former Conn Smythe winner, and O'Reilly continues to stand his ground and ask to stick around Nashville. Elliotte Friedman: Ryan O’Reilly continues to express his desire to stay...
