Dante Fabbro
NSH 2019 1st round pick
NSH 2018 3rd round pick

Max Pacioretty

:nashville confirms, it was very difficult to trade Dante but with our depth at defense we feel that we could afford to move him. Max is a talented winger who we believe he will thrive in a non pressure situation such as here in Nashville. Max also helps give us 4 lines that we are confident can score and contrbute offensively.

A pair of homecomings for a pair of blueliners. Brandon Hickey is the Captain and a senior at Boston University. He has informed the Coyotes that he will not be signing with Arizona. He is from Leduc and was previously spurned by the Flames being dealt in the Mike Smith deal of yesteryear. We are hoping the familiarly and proximity to home makes Hickey consider putting pen to paper.

Alex Petrovic is from Edmonton, but don't get too comfortable though Alex, because...

Thanks for coming to the press conference, Alex. You can leave now.

The Edmonton Oilers would like to thank Kris Russell for being a consummate professional. Russell's directive was to stay in Alberta close to home in Caroline, Alberta and close to his ranch. He rejoins a Flames organization that he's intimately familiar with. All the best wishes to Kris and his family, just not during the Battle of Alberta. ;)

Place Marian Gaborik on waivers.

:sens buyout Marian Gaborik.

We are also elated to have selected Filip Zadina 4th overall. We envision him being a fixture in our top 6 as early as next season and with his addition, as well as moves we hope to make in UFA, hope to be back in the post-season next season. We will also start to work on re-signing Team Captain Erik Karlsson to a long term contract extension.

Beyond thrilled to have added Brady Tkachuk, Bode Wilde, and Isac Lundestrom in the 1st round. Ditto to add Jake Wise, Jared McIssac, Blade Jenkins, Gio Vallati, and Declan Chisholm in the 2nd.

With the additions as well of Trent Frederic, Dante Fabbro, Travis Sanheim, and others, the Montreal Canadiens are in a very strong spot to rebuild our franchise.

Jonathan Tavares remains torn on his options. His gut is turning and beginning to get to him; his head doesn't know what to think; and his heart is halfway in his throat trying desperately to reach and reason with his head. At this point in the process, it appears that Tavares will listen to offers in Free Agency.

Evander Kane and the San Jose Sharks have had a healthy dialogue since the trade deadline. Kane has fit very well in San Jose and is receptive towards returning. However, it was buddy and current teammate Joe Thornton, who last year came away very flattered from the interview process, that told Kane to experience free agency and "see who loves you".

Speaking of Joe Thornton, Jumbo has told the San Jose Sharks he will give them a decision tonight whether he goes to market for the second straight year.

Matt Stajan and the Calgary Flames are working on coming to terms on a new contract before the start of Free Agency.

Props to co-commissioner @Joel Ward for running the draft. Much love!

Very shocked and pleased to have drafted Adam Boqvist 7th overall as we had him 4th on our draft board. We feel that by adding him, acquiring Kale Clague in an earlier trade and the improved play of Olli Juolevi this season in Finland that our defense is on it's way to becoming respectable. Also very happy to select Adam Ginning an Filip Hallander in the 2nd round.

And thanks to Joel Ward for conducting the draft! Great job as always!

The Erik Karlsson era in Ottawa is over. It was a very hard decision for us to make, but in the end we felt this deal was too good for our future to turn down, especially with the uncertainty of whether or not we could even keep or afford to keep Erik long term. With the additions of Jacob and Kyle we feel that we are getting two integral core pieces for not only our current team, but for our team for many years to come. Add in two early picks in next year's draft and we were sold. We wish all the best to Erik and Ryan with their new club.

:jets confirm.

We wish Jacob and Kyle the very best of luck in the nation's capital. They have been essential pieces to this team and stand testiment to our drafting. However, we welcome Erik Karlsson and Ryan Dzingel to Winnipeg and look forward to winning the Stanley Cup with the best defenceman in the game.

Byfuglien is VERY available. Looking for good young top-6 winger.

Huh, made almost this same exact trade in another sim game. Nice trade for Ottawa.
