It’s NHL trade deadline day! Stay tuned to this tracker and our open thread for details over the course of the day.
Post-Deadline: The trade deadline has come and gone, but many deals are still trickling in as the NHL plays catch-up with a backlog of deals.
A three-way trade has been completed between Chicago, San Jose & Vegas. Vegas picks up Mattias Janmark and Nick DeSimone along with a fifth-rounder (2022). Chicago gets a 2021 2nd-rounder and 2022 3rd-rounder from Vegas. San Jose is a broker team and gets a fifth-rounder in 2022 (which originally belonged to the Sabres.)
Vancouver and Chicago also make a swap. Chicago gets a 2021 fourth-rounder, while Vancouver snags defenseman Madison Bowey and a 5th-round pick this year.
Washington gets Anthony Mantha, sending a lot to Detroit: Richard Panik, Jakub Vrana, a 2021 1st-round pick and a 2022 2nd-round pick.
