Many teams around the NHL have already added to their rosters this offseason, following the Oct. 6-7 draft and free agency, which got underway Oct. 9.
The salary cap for the 2020-21 season (which does not yet have a start date) remained flat at $81.5 million. For some teams, they don't have much flexibility having already signed some key free agents in October. And that means they may have to consider trades if they want to make any more changes.
So, even though there have already been some notable transactions the past three weeks, there could be more on the way.
