Vanek has had a strong year in Detroit after signing a one-year deal with the Red Wings in the summer. With the Red Wings being sellers at the deadline for the first time in 25 years, Vanek’s fate was sealed. He heads to Florida with 15 goals and 23 assists (38 points) in 48 games this season.

Whitney has collected 11 goals and 17 assists (28 points) in 55 games with the San Antonio Rampage this season, but will head to the Tucson Roadrunners (AHL) in a minor league deal.

Ranford, 24, had six goals and 11 assists (17 points) in 46 games with the Texas Stars and Tucson Roadrunners (AHL) this season. He will report to San Antonio.

Goldobin, 21, was a first round pick in 2014, but has only appeared in 11 career NHL games since. He has had a really nice 2016-17 season in the AHL, where he was third on the San Jose Barracuda in points with 41 (15G / 256A) in 46 games. He is expected to report to the Canucks opposed to Utica.

Hansen spent the first nine and a half seasons of his NHL career with the Canucks after being drafted by them in 2004. Hansen had a career-high 22 goals last year, but has been hampered by injuries this season—he has 13 points (6G / 7A) in 28 games and heads to San Jose where he will likely land a bottom-6 role.

Ott has collected three goals and three assists (six points) in 42 games for the Red Wings this season. Ott brings some grit, toughness and good face-off ability to the Canadiens’ bottom-6 but likely won’t see a tonne of playing time down the stretch.

Davidson has had a long journey to the NHL as a sixth round pick, but has registered just one assist in 28 games this season. Davidson will likely find playing time hard to come by in Montreal.

Desharnais has been regressing for the last few years, but has really struggled this season, registering just 10 points (4G / 6A) in 31 games with the Canadiens. The Oilers need some help in the face-off dot and Desharnais will bring that as a bottom-6 forward.

McNeill, 24, was a first round pick in 2011 but has never developed the way the Blackhawks expected. McNeill has six goals and 22 assists (28 points) in 58 games with Rockford this season and has only appeared in just one career NHL game.

Oduya was with the Blackhawks from the second half of 2012 until 2015, where he collected nine goals and 34 assists (43 points) in 219 games. Oduya has just seven points (1G / 6A) in 37 games with the Stars this season, but is an upgrade on Michal Rozsival as the Blackhawks’ seven defenseman.

Stalberg has registered nine goals with three assists (12 points) in 57 games with the Hurricanes this season. Stalberg and Alex Burrows have been added to the Senators in the last two days, but both of their best days appear to be behind them. Expect Stalberg to make his Senators debut on Thursday.

Smith has spent the first six and a half seasons of his NHL career with the Red Wings but the pending unrestricted free agent has been traded because the Red Wings are selling contracts as their 25-year playoff streak appears to be coming to an end. Smith never really developed into the offensive force the Red Wings were hoping when they picked him in the first round in 2007. Smith won’t be in the lineup on Tuesday and has just two goals and three assists (five points) in 33 games this season.

Sanford, 22, was a second round pick in 2013 (No.61 overall) and has appeared in his first 26 career NHL games this season. Sanford has two goals and one assist in his brief NHL career and is expected to serve as a healthy scratch in his first game with the Blues. Sanford has 11 goals and five assists (16 points) in 25 games with Hershey (AHL).

Shattenkirk has been on the block for years it seems, but the Blues were final able to move him to the Capitals. Shattenkirk is a talented offensive-defenseman, who has 11 goals and 31 assists (42 points) in 61 games this season. He is expected to move to the Capitals’ top power-play unit in his debut on Tuesday night.

Dahlen, 19, was a second round pick in 2016 (No.42 overall) and has had a great season with Timra in the Swedish Elite League. The Swedish-centre has scored 24 goals with 18 assists (42 points) in his second professional season—the Canucks appeared to have scored a quality prospect for a veteran winger.

Burrows has collected nine goals and 11 assists (20 points) in 55 games with the Canucks this season. The veteran winger is five years removed from his 28-goal, 52-point season in 2011-12 and it appears his best years are behind him. Expect Burrows to slot in on the Senators’ third line.

Pateryn has only appeared in 24 games with the Canadiens this season and made it well-known that he was unhappy with his playing time. Unfortunately he heads to Dallas with their own clogged bluleline.

Benn has registered two goals and 13 assists (15 points) in 58 games with the Canadiens. Greg Pateryn has expressed his displeasure with the Canadiens because he wasn’t getting any playing time, so they’ve moved him and a draft pick for Benn.

Froese, 25, has no points in two games with the Maple Leafs this season and just five points (2G / 3A) in 58 career NHL games. During his time with Toronto (AHL) he led the Marlies in goals (24) and points (39) in 48 games.

Boyle is a monster at 6-foot-7, 244 lbs. and is a versatile forward that can play either centre or the wing. Boyle is expected to solidify the Maple Leafs’ bottom-6 and brings 100 games of playoff experience to an inexperienced team. Boyle had 13 goals and nine assists (22 points) in 54 games with the Lightning this season.
