The NHL trade deadline for the 2022-23 season is today, Friday March 3 at 3 p.m. ET. There have already been a number of big moves especially as the bigger teams in the Eastern Conference have loaded up for what should be an interesting arms race this postseason.
The Buffalo Sabres have so far been mentioned in a number of conversations, but have only made a couple of minor-looking moves. Defenseman Riley Stillman was obtained from the Vancouver Canucks for prospect Josh Bloom, and the rights to wantaway prospect goaltender Erik Portillo were exchanged for a third rounder in the upcoming draft.
