After 3 PM today, the NHL will not allow any more trades. Up until then, we’ve got a bonanza on our hands.
The Washington Capitals have already made their big move, acquiring Kevin Shattenkirk from the St Louis Blues. They don’t have much cap room left and aren’t expected to be very active today. But the rest of the league, including Washington’s likely playoff foes, are gonna be gearing up.
Let’s use this space to watch and discuss the moves. We’ll have updates below, so sound off in the comments.
Updates
Here’s all I’ve got so far.

Re: the below, hahaha no.
Told Doan would waive NMC for WAS or PIT, but both have 0 cap space, so barring creativity it's unlikely. Would consider for MTL, 2-3 others
