More Trade Deadline Deals To Announce

It's after 3 p.m., so we're pretty much done her in another subpar day of trade deadline deals. Some further deals may be announced, since the call basically only needs to be done by 3. So this may not be the final, final of the trades. But here are the other moves of the day:

  • The Boston Bruins geared up with another scorer and defenseman by taking Brian Rolston and Mike Mottau from the New York Islanders in exchange for forward Yannick Riendeau and defenseman Marc Cantin.
  • The Bruins also swapped d-men with the Minnesota Wild, acquiring Greg Zanon for Steve Kampfer.
  • The Nashville Predators were the team to shockingly caugh up the first rounder Buffalo required to snag center Paul Gaustad. The Preds received a fourth rounder along with Gaustad in the deal.
  • The New York Rangers, unable to make a last-ditch effort for Rick Nash that TSN's Darren Dreger believes included a "mammoth offer," added a little defensive help by pickup up John Scott from the Chicago Blackhawks for a fifth round selection.
  • Defenseman Mark Fraser is moving from Anaheim to the Toronto Maple Leafs, with forward Dale Mitchell heading to the Ducks.
  • The Vancouver Canucks came in late to the game with a deal sending Cody Hodgson and Alexander Sulzer to the Buffalo Sabres for Zack Kassian and Marc-Andre Gragnani.
  • Vancouver made a much more minor deal, as well, sending defenseman Sebastien Erixson to the Ducks for right wing Andrew Gordon.
