It seems that the actual deadline day will be abnormally quiet. What possible major deals are left there ?

Since the Horvat deal kicked things off on 1/30 I count TWELVE first round picks exchanging hands. Wow. That has to be a record.
More than anything that tells me the back half of this draft isn’t anything special — granted a couple of those are 2024 picks.

I am loving it. Let them trade their futures away.
I think the Capitals and the Canes, who weren’t really trading away futures this year, will be big players in the trade market next year. The Capitals (if they are healthy) might think it is their last chance for a deep run with Ovi and the Canes have a ton of expiring contracts (Aho, Pesce, Skjei, Teravainen) after next year so they might want to go all in.

We've heard this refrain for the last 4 years and Columbus hasn't done anything significant to that effect. Teams found out how to manipulate LTIR to their advantage and also they can dump "bad" contracts to Arizona with picks to get them to the cap floor.
Outside of retaining salary on Foligno & Savard, has Jarmo ever "weaponized" cap space? Maybe taking on J. Quick? If anything, we got caught by the cap when we had to move out Bjorkstrand after the Gaudreau signing and Laine extension.
Dubas still has, like, 4 picks left to trade out.
Seattle hasn't really done anything.
Calgary could finally decide to go into sell mode.
The Ducks still have Klingberg, Kulikov, Shattenkirk.
Nashville could sell even more guys.
Outside chance Erik Karlsson gets moved.
Parayko's name is still out there.
Brock Boeser or JT Miller could move.
Dallas probably wants to add a middle six scoring threat.
Winnipeg probably still wants to add a defenseman.
Vegas...you never know.
I wouldn't discount Colorado adding a top 6 forward. They still have their 1st round picks into the future, including in 2023 (they've traded a bunch of 2nd and 3rd round picks so far.
I have no idea what Pittsburgh is doing...maybe they'll add another piece?
Carolina hasn't made a move.

This is one hell of a trade deadline season. Loving it.
(Not so much the East loading up but on the other hand maybe they spend it all now and in a couple of years it'll look a bit better for us...)

I think Jiricek has the talent to play top 4 next year but maybe not the conditioning.
He alternates from looking like superman to looking tired. Something like 16 minutes a night would be better than 20.
It is a record.
There was some comment on the PDO Cast that teams have figured out that later 1sts were being overrated. Not specific to the 2023 draft.

Wait until 2-3 years from now when Crosby and the gang retire and they’re left with the ashes of what was left.
Hell of a 20 year run by Pittsburgh but time is up
They haven't won a series in 5 years and the fans blame Hextall for not loading up. Denial.
Letang is signed until he's *40* with a NMC the entire way.
Malkin is signed until he's 39 with a full NMC the entire way.
Jeff Petry (??) is 35 and and signed for two more years with a NMC.
I guess their big question is what Crosby wants to do in the summer of 2025 (when he goes UFA) when he turns 38.
