Stempniak, 33, is no stranger to being traded at the deadline and will now report to his ninth different NHL team. Stempniak rejuvenated his career in New Jersey this season, picking up 16 goals and 25 assists (41 points) in 63 games and now finds himself in Boston where he looks to continue that strong pace.
Liles, 35, has enjoyed a strong 11-year NHL career and now he heads to his fourth team. He has picked up six goals and nine assists (15 points) in 64 games with the Hurricanes this season. He will likely make his Bruins’ debut on Tuesday.
Prince, 23, was a second round pick (61st overall) in the 2011 NHL Draft. Prince had fallen a bit behind some other Senators prospects, so they’ve moved him to create a roster spot for Matt Puempel to be recalled. Prince has three goals and nine assists (12 points) in 42 games with the Senators this season.
Pirri is currently on IR, having missed the last six games with an ankle injury and is likely 1-2 weeks away from making his Ducks debut. He has picked up 11 goals and 13 assists (24 points) in 52 games this season and is coming off of a 22-goal year in 2014-15. He will provide the Ducks with forward depth and could work his way into their top-6.
Pollock, 19, was a second round pick (45th overall) in the 2014 NHL Draft. The 6-foot-3, 194 lbs. centre is currently leading the Edmonton Oil Kings (WHL) in points, with 67 (25G / 42A) in 64 games.
Jokipakka, 24, was a seventh round pick (195th overall) in 2011 but didn’t waste any time getting to the NHL since coming over from Finland. The 6-foot-3, 215 lbs. defenseman has six points (2G / 4A) in 40 games with Dallas this season. He will play a more regular role with his new team in Calgary.
Russell was 15 points (4G / 11A) in 51 games with the Flames this season. The pending unrestricted free agent is known for his fearlessness to block shots, where he currently ranks second in the NHL with 174. He will likely slide in as a second-pairing guy in Dallas, which will bump Johnny Oduya to the third pair.
Gelinas has often served as a healthy scratch this season and with the Devils acquiring David Warsofsky off of waivers earlier in the day, the writing was on the wall. Gelinas is a big body (6’4” / 215 lbs.) with a bigger shot, but that’s what he is known for, not his defensive prowess.
Wood, 19, was a third round pick (84th overall) in the 2014 NHL Draft. The 6-foot-5, 217 lbs. defenseman has picked up 35 points (8G / 27A) in 40 games with the North Bay Battalion (OHL) this season.

Tanguay is set to become an unrestricted free agent and is now set to play with the fifth different team of his NHL career. The veteran winger has four goals and 18 assists (22 points) in 52 games this season and is expected to slide into the Coyotes’ top-6 for Boedker.
Boedker, 26 spent the first eight seasons of his NHL career with the Coyotes, picking up 39 points (13G / 26A) in 62 games this season and 213 career points (80G / 133A) in 445 games with the Yotes. He is expected to slide right in for Tanguay in the Avs’ top-6.
Robertson, 24, has two goals, three assists and 30 PIMS in 37 games with Rockford (AHL). He will report to Charlotte.

Plotnikov has often served as a healthy scratch this season after coming over from the KHL this summer. He has two assists in 32 games this season, and could already face his former team tonight with the Coyotes in Pittsburgh.
