2016 NHL Trade Deadline Tracker: All-Day Coverage and Analysis
Too Many Men will feature the “2016 NHL Trade Deadline Tracker” on Monday, February 29th 2016.
NHL Trade Deadline is to fans what Christmas morning is to children all around the world. By this time of year, the playoff-picture has begun to paint itself as teams declare themselves buyers, or sellers heading into February 29th.
For many teams, it’s the last opportunity to make additions for the stretch-run, and last chance to assemble that Stanley Cup winning roster. At the same time, the basement dwellers of the league are selling on expiring contracts in hopes of adding prospects and/or draft picks.
