The news yesterday has put the chance of a 2021 NHL season from the fridge into the microwave. Weird analogy, I know, but I needed an excuse to share this video:
Cap Trades
NHL teams have a deadline now to get their rosters in order in time for training camp. There won’t be much opportunity for trades once the season starts, especially over the border, and AHL/NHL transactions are likely going to be discouraged. The roster a GM makes will be the roster they keep for as long as the whole season, potentially.
