McNeill, 24, was a sixth round pick (170th overall) in 2010 and has never appeared in an NHL game. The 6-foot-4, 215 lbs. defenseman has one goal and one assist in 14 games with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season and will report to Chicago (AHL).

Condon was picked up off of waivers from the Canadiens, but only appeared in one game with Penguins—a relief appearance, stopping all seven shots in Nashville. Condon is 21-25-6 with a career .904 SV% in his NHL career. The acquisition of Condon, suggests that Andrew Hammond’s injury is more serious than originally expected.
Brickley, 24, was a second round pick (50th overall) in 2010 but has only appeared in 23 NHL games since. Brickley had 27 points (12G / 15A) in 45 games with Portland a season ago.
Sutter, 25, was a seventh round pick (193rd overall) in 2011 and has only appeared in 12 career NHL games. He has been a solid AHLer in Charlotte, picking up 33 goals and 44 assists (77 points) over the last three seasons. He should report to Springfield.
Yakupov, 23, was the first overall pick in 2012 but has never been able to get back on track after a great rookie season. He broke into the NHL with 31 points (17G / 14A) in 48 games during the lockout shortened season, but picked up just 33 goals and 47 assists (80 points) in 204 games over the last three seasons combined. The Blues have depth on the wing, but Yakupov adds a little extra and will likely start in the bottom-6.
Crouse, 19, was drafted 11th overall in 2015 and is coming off of a season where he had 62 points (23G / 39A) in 49 games with the Kingston Frontenacs (OHL). Crouse is a big-boy (6’4” / 212 lbs.) who adds even more offensive upside to a youthful Coyotes organization. He will fight for a roster spot in training camp, but could start the year in the AHL.
Bernier, 27, was originally acquired from the Kings to be the goalie of the future in Toronto, but that never really panned out. Bernier was 59-68-17 with a 2.80 GAA and .915 SV% in 140 starts and 11 relief appearances with the Maple Leafs over three seasons. This summer the Leafs brought in Frederik Andersen from Anaheim to be their new starter, now Bernier is headed the other way to serve as John Gibson’s backup.
Nilsson was 2-0-0 with a 2.01 GAA and .935 SV% in two AHL starts last season, but didn’t have the same success at the NHL level, going 10-13-2 with a 3.12 GAA and .901 SV% with the Blues and Oilers. Nilsson has a career .900 SV% and will likely serve as Robin Lehner’s backup in 2016-17.
Subban, 27, has become one of the top defensemen in the NHL since being drafted 43rd overall in 2007. He has turned in three straight 50-plus point seasons, but had a career-low six goals and 3.4% shooting percentage. Subban will likely slide onto the Predators’ top pair alongside Roman Josi, forming one of the NHL’s top offensive pairings.
Weber, 30, spent the first 10 years of his NHL career in Nashville after being picked 49th overall in 2003. He is a mammoth at 6-foot-4, 230 lbs. who excels at both ends of the rink. He is coming off of one his best seasons, having posted 20 goals and 31 assists (51 points) in 78 games. Acquiring Weber for Subban gives the Canadiens $1.143 million in cap relief.
Larsson, 23, was the fourth overall pick in the 2011 NHL Draft, but has yet to develop into the premiere two-way defenseman that he was expected to be. However, at just 23-years-old he still has a lot of years to become the top-pairing defenseman that the Oilers are hoping they just acquired. He had 18 points (3G / 15A) in 82 games with the Devils last season.
Hall spent the first six years of his NHL career in Edmonton after they selected him 1st overall in the 2010 NHL Draft. Hall is coming off of a 26-goal, 39-assist (65 points) season and has a career-high of 80 points (2013-14). The 24-year-old is one of the best young wingers in the NHL and should provide the Devils with a huge boost up front. He will be reunited with his former junior teammate Adam Henrique.
Sieloff, 22, was a second round pick (42nd overall) in the 2012 NHL Draft. The 6-foot-1, 205 lbs. defensemen had 11 points (2G / 9A) in 52 games with Stockton (AHL) and scored a goal in his NHL debut with the Flames last year.
Chiasson, 25, struggled in two years with the Senators, collecting just 19 goals and 21 assists (40 points) in 153 games. The former second round pick (38th overall in 2009) was a key piece in the Jason Spezza trade, but has not been able to gain traction in the NHL.
