It’s rare that one trade catches an entire sport by surprise, but when the Montreal Canadiens dealt defenseman Chris Chelios and a second-round draft choice to the Chicago Blackhawks for center Denis Savard in the summer of 1990, it sent shockwaves all throughout the NHL. Each city was caught off-guard by the sudden loss of
Over eight years ago, in late March of 2013, Calgary Flames fans were heartbroken to see not only their best leader, but one of the best leaders in NHL history in Jarome Iginla get traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins. The move didn’t come as much of a shock, as his contract was set to expire
At the beginning of the 2017-18 season, expectations were high for the Nashville Predators and the Ottawa Senators. The Predators were just coming off of their first trip to the Stanley Cup Final and the Senators were one goal away from meeting them there, taking the Pittsburgh Penguins to game seven in the Eastern Conference
After the Tampa Bay Lightning acquired Brandon Hagel from the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday, it felt like that would be general manager (GM) Julien BriseBois’ definitive move of the deadline. With essentially $0 in cap space available, it seemed unlikely that he would try to make another trade since it would require him to send
Joseph would have become a UFA despite being a current pending RFA Erik Erlandsson: Tampa Bay Lightning GM Julien BriseBois said that they likely wouldn’t have qualified Mathieu Joseph this offseason. He would have been arbitration eligible. Brisebois didn’t say that Nick Paul would be a straight rental and that they would revisit his pending
Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet: The Calgary Flames outbid the Los Angeles Kings and Washington Capitals for Calle Jarnkrok. The Florida Panthers giving up assets for Ben Chiarot may not take them out of the running for Claude Giroux, who may prefer the Panthers over the Colorado Avalanche. The Boston Bruins, Carolina Hurricanes, Los Angeles Kings,
The Ottawa Senators have made their fair share of trades throughout their history. Some of those moves have seen them come out on top, but others have fans wondering what just happened. As with any NHL team, the return a team can get for a particular player or pick can vary a great deal. Are
Long before he became one of the biggest and most disappointing contracts in New York Islanders franchise history, Alexei Yashin was traded to the Islanders from the Ottawa Senators back on June 23, 2001. At the time, Yashin was a talented forward with a high-skill level and offensive upside that was clearly appealing to the
It has been almost five years since a blockbuster trade went down during the offseason between the St. Louis Blues and the Washington Capitals. The Blues sent forward TJ Oshie to the Caps in exchange for forward Troy Brouwer, goaltender Pheonix Copley and a third-round pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. As with most
In the years when the New York Islanders consistently finished at the bottom of the standings, then-general manager Garth Snow made one of the most talked-about trades among Islanders fans. It was a simple swap of Nino Niederreiter for Cal Clutterbuck, but the deal will always be debated. Let’s take a look back at the trade
Matt Martin has always represented what it means to be a New York Islander. The work he does off the ice matches his on-ice production as one of the best fourth-line wingers in the league. Martin generated chemistry with Casey Cizikas when the two came into the league nearly a decade ago and became the
In an exciting couple of hours prior to the expansion draft trade freeze, several trades were made that could have major effects on the landscape of the NHL. Perhaps the biggest move of the day saw longtime Nashville Predators defenseman Ryan Ellis sent to the Philadelphia Flyers in a three-team trade. With Viktor Arvidsson already
The Tampa Bay Lightning are in the midst of their first-ever Stanley Cup playoff series against their in-state rival Florida Panthers. The two teams have a long history of playing against each other in the Sunshine State Showdown but have never made any blockbuster transactions on the business side of the game. The Lightning, however,
On July 2, 2001, the Philadelphia Flyers made a trade that would shift the trajectory of the franchise for decades to come. This trade sent Daymond Langkow to the Phoenix Coyotes in exchange for a first-round pick in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft, and a second-round pick in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft. At the
For an entire decade, Brian Bellows was a staple of the Minnesota North Stars and the team’s premier sniper. Selected with the second pick of the 1982 NHL Entry Draft, he represented the franchise at three different All-Star Games (1984, 1988, 1992) and was even named an NHL Second Team All-Star in 1990. Playing in
From the eighth seed in the Western Conference to the Stanley Cup Final, the Nashville Predators provided hockey fans with a wild ride through the 2017 NHL Playoffs. At the center of that playoff run was Filip Forsberg. Forsberg is just one of general manager David Poile’s many great acquisitions over the years. Since arriving
Beginning in 1981, Dale Hawerchuk became one of the most dominant centers in the National Hockey League and was the face of the Winnipeg Jets. After a junior career in the QMJHL in which he scored 81 goals and 102 assists in all of 72 games for the 1980-81 Cornwall Royals , he was at
