The NHL trade deadline has passed.
While deadline day was quieter than normal with very few trades happening on Friday, the month leading up to the 2023 deadline was one of the busiest we've seen in recent years.
Deadline season is always crazy, but this year has seen a plethora of big names get moved well in advance of March 3, the last day for trades. Patrick Kane, Bo Horvat, Ryan O'Reilly, Vladimir Tarasenko, Dmitry Orlov, Jakob Chychrun and Timo Meier are all wearing new sweaters now.
