I was going to do a lengthy opening but honestly I have neither the energy nor the inclination to spend any time on that now (not related to the game tonight). Also because rickety HF struggles to get through the deadline at the best of times, so spending energy on something that could be offline or gutted by moves to improve stability seems pointless. I'm also putting this up before the traditional wait until midnight because I don't know if I'll be awake at that point and honestly I don't care to wait.

So, in brief, here's the GDT for all trade deadline discussion for March 7th.

PLEASE DO NOT MAKE NEW THREADS FOR SHARK TRADES OR "THANK YOU" THREADS FOR DEPARTING PLAYERS. TO EASE THE SERVER LOAD, PLEASE ALLOW A MOD TO DO THAT AS LONG AS ONE IS ONLINE SO THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE BEING MADE, NOT A RUSH OF MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS.

US TV coverage will be on the NHL network starting at 7am PT, when they will simulcast Rogers Sportsnet's coverage from Canada until 11am before switching to their own studio show and analysts for the next few hours.

Canadian TV coverage runs from 5am until 2pm on TSN, and 7am until 2pm on Sportsnet.

Both Canadian networks have trade trackers on their website. TSN's may show the coverage stream but it may be geo-blocked (if you have a VPN just set it to Canada and I think it should work). Sportsnet's doesn't appear to have any video accompaniment. Their coverage may or may not be available online because they could choose to only air it through their streaming platforms (both of which require subscriptions or TV carrier/ISP logins)

Personally I prefer TSN to Sportsnet, but that's just me.



For cap information I've been using CapWages. It seems pretty accurate and looks the most similar to what CapFriendly was.




I plan on being around starting between 7 and 7:30 in the morning and carrying through most of the day's coverage to the noon PT/3pm ET deadline and a little beyond. In that time I should be able to handle most of the necessary thread-making if we need it and anything else that pops up.
 
Logan "preseason Calder Trophy favorite" Stankoven getting dropped to Dallas' 4th line then traded before his rookie season ends is hilarious.
 
That could be like their Norris trade, yet even worse.
I seriously doubt Stankoven has 30+ goal a year potential like Norris. Dallas is a deep team up front but the fact he's been on their fourth line for a few months now is concerning. He's 22, not some teenager.
 
2026 1st + Carl Berglund for Walman

Let's see Kunin, Ferraro, Kostin, and Rutta traded as well. Maybe the Sharks also take on a cap dump; only Askarov is under contract.
 
I kinda think Grier is crazy enough to trade Ferraro if someone offers a 1st (and I suspect he’d ask for a good prospect along with that, considering current prices). I assume he’d also likely try and pick up a defenseman as a band aid to finish the year.

That’s sort of the biggest trade I’m expecting to be surprised by.

I imagine we’ll get some spare parts for Kunin, etc.

are there any overpaid defenseman cap dump candidates we can get paid to take on? would kill two birds with one stone - get more assets while acquiring warm bodies to play on the blue line for the rest of the year

i actually think the leafs might give up some value for kunin.
 
It’s actually wild that we managed to get two 1sts this deadline. I figured we’d maybe eke out a 2nd and some odds and ends with the assets we had. Again, kudos to Grier.

I just hope he manages to use those 1sts in trades to bring us some help. But what he’s managed to get is pretty impressive. Still waiting for a Grier surprise today.

Rantanen for Kunin, Goodrow, Ferraro and the Oilers first => Rantanen to Dallas for Bischell and Bourque.
