Eklund: There are at least two major trades out there on hold for now…+Tock>Philly?

Rantanens playoff goals are being traded for Marners playoff assists and neither player is happy about this

Will you name said player(s) once their team is eliminated?

Feel better...I have had two major concussions during my time. Once as a kid, the other in my late 20's. The headaches/migraines spanning from both were unreal. And yes...I saw sparkling stars when the impacts occurred. I felt like Sylvester the Cat after Tweety Bird whacked him in the head with a golf club.

McDavid and Draisaitl to Toronto for Nic Robertson and a 12th rounder

Done in 2 separate deals obviously.

McDavid fetches the 12th rounder

Ok, I'll bite and speculate on potential teams still playing:

Caps - rapidly aging, lots of UFAs. Jump start rebuild by moving Protas, Wilson, PLD for young prospects or draft picks. And yet tanking in Ovi's farewell season doesn't seem like something Ted would do.

Stars - 7 UFAs, have not yet gotten over the hump. Retool by moving a piece or two and accumulating some much needed draft assets.

Oilers - Need to plan for big raises for Bouchard, McDavid and get younger on the back end.
