Well, here it is. One of the craziest days in the NHL, where free agents find new homes and rosters really start to take shape. The trade market has been slower than some anticipated (other than in Boston), but may also pick up as the league continues to battle the salary cap, which did not increase as much as teams would have liked it to, forcing teams to dump salary and jettison veterans to make room for rising players due a raise.
We already have a good idea of what our team will look like in Minnesota, but when the dust settles after tomorrow, some teams could be dramatically changed and some, like Buffalo and Boston, already are.
