It’s so typical of NHL execs to play spoiler to the big day.
Instead of waiting until the 11th hour to trade their most notable names, general managers this season have chosen to flip marquee names long before the final countdown.

Seeing long-standing stars like Claude Giroux and Mark Giordano head off to new homes is shocking enough. What’s even more surprising is that there’s still so much more dealing to be done. John Klingberg, Jakob Chychrun, and Marc-Andre Fleury are just a few of the bigger names that are still on the board.
