You know the drill. At 3 PM today, the NHL will allow no more trades between teams. This is the last chance for sellers to plan for their futures and for Cup aspirants to tool up for the playoffs. If it’s anything like previous years, there will be a whole lot of nothing for awhile, then everyone will make deals in the last twenty minutes and we won’t hear about ’em until close to dinnertime. Either way, it’s gonna be a big day. Buckle up.
Before we get into the deals, here are each team’s chances of making the playoffs, according to moneypuck.com, as of Sunday.
