What a weird package

Mackenzie Weegar has been traded to the Utah Mammoth for Olli Maatta, Jonathan Castagna, and three second-round picks, all in 2026.

I didn’t think he was worth Iginla

Nashville has traded Nick Blankenburg to Colorado for a 2027 5th round pick.

I assume they missed having Girard, Blankenburg's looked pretty good in that role when I've seen Nashville. Could be a sneaky good deal for the Avs.

yeah I assume Blankb is a really good player based on Colorado getting him for nothing

Parayko is a good defensive add for sure but doesn’t make me scared for the future as a divisional rival. I’ll take it.

This isn’t a crazy price but Ottawa glad Ottawa is staying away from trying to make a 32 their 2nd pair right D of the future (again)

Leaves got a 1st for Nic Roy?

That's pretty good, even if it's pick #32.

Yeah pretty good, though Roy imo is a really good player, wins faceoffs, good hands, smart and relatively mobile. Guys of this profile struggle in Berubeland where tape to tape passes are basically forbidden

One of my best friends moved from Oakland to Buffalo last year and he is, hmm, less enthusiastic about living there.

I wouldn’t be shocked if the Wings end up getting OEL and a forward from the Leaves. Ideally they’d get a RHD (Faulk) but I could see them going for McMann / Laughton and OEL.
