Full list of the new head coaches for the 2026-27 season<\/a><\/p>\nNHL offseason trades 2026: Tracking the latest news, rumorsHurricanes listening on Alexander Nikishin<\/p>\n
Just a couple of weeks after hoisting the Stanley Cup, Alexander Nikishin is now in the midst of trade rumors. The 24-year-old defenseman is an RFA, and considering Carolina’s cap crunch, the team is listening to offers. Darren Dreger reports it’s a “strong market” with “up to six teams” in the mix for the young Russian.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Predators get Jack Drury from Avalanche<\/p>\n
The full deal is Drury, Chase Bradley and a third-round pick for\u00a0Fedor Svechkov and Zachary L\u2019Heureux. Drury, who began his career with the Hurricanes, had 27 points in 82 games for Colorado last season.<\/p>\n
Stars still negotiating extension with Jason Robertson<\/p>\n
The star forward is a restricted free agent this year and is a prime offer sheet candidate if he hits the market. Dallas would like to retain him, but the Stars could decide to sell high and add a boatload of assets if the team can’t sign him longterm<\/p>\n
Capitals to acquire Alex Tuch in sign-and-trade<\/p>\n
Tuch was set to hit free agency as one of the best players available but instead will sign an eight-year deal worth $10.5 million per season to join the Capitals. Buffalo will get a third-round pick back in return.<\/p>\n
Bowen Byram heads from Sabres to Blackhawks for fourth overall pick<\/p>\n
Chicago sends Buffalo the No. 4 overall pick, the No. 45 overall pick, and defenseman Louis Crevier in exchange for Bowen Byram and Jordan Greenway. Byram is the clear centerpiece of the deal and is due for a new contract after this season, but he becomes a key part of the Blackhawks’ rebuild alongside Connor Bedard.<\/p>\n
Blues send Jordan Kyrou to Capitals<\/p>\n
The Capitals are pushing their chips in this offseason, as they send their first-round pick this year and prospects Connor McMichael and Milton Gastrin for Kyrou, who has had at least 67 points in four of his eight NHL seasons. Washington gets Kyrou with five years left on his contract, while St. Louis now has four first-round picks this year.<\/p>\n
Senators acquire William Eklund from Sharks for ninth overall pick<\/p>\n
Ottawa is sending the ninth overall pick, which it just got in the Brady Tkachuk deal, to San Jose for a package of players headlined by Eklund, who should help fill the void left by Tkachuk. The Senators also get\u00a0Kasper Halttunen and Brandon Svoboda in the deal, but Eklund is the headliner as he had back-to-back 50-point seasons in the last two years.<\/p>\n
Flames get Simon Nemec from Devils for multiple first round picks<\/p>\n
Nemec is a former No. 2 overall pick who gets a fresh start in Calgary, but that comes at a hefty cost. In return, the Devils get a\u00a0 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 first-round pick, the No. 35 overall pick and D Etienne Morin, giving New Jersey a large selection of draft assets moving forward.<\/p>\n
Panthers land Brady Tkachuk in blockbuster<\/p>\n
Florida now pairs both Tkachuck brothers as they agree to a deal to get the star forward from Ottawa. Tkachuk seemed to be ready for a new start, so the Senators land multiple first round picks, including two in this year’s draft, and now turn their attention elsewhere.<\/p>\n
Kraken acquire F Mackie Samoskevich from Panthers<\/p>\n
Seattle sent Florida the No. 25 overall pick this year and a conditional second next year to get the 23-year-old forward. Samoskevich played in 149 games over the past two seasons and produced 64 total points.<\/p>\n
Lightning send Darren Raddysh to Maple Leafs in sign-and-trade<\/p>\n
Raddysh will sign an eight-year deal with Toronto that is worth over $8 million per season. In return, the Lightning are getting a fifth-round pick in the 2026 draft.<\/p>\n
Avalanche send Predators Ross Colton in deal<\/p>\n
Colton and Isak Posch are headed to Nashville for two third-round picks Magnus Chrona. The deal was made between Joe Sakic and Chris MacFarland, who worked together until MacFarland joined Nashville last month.<\/p>\n
