Rosters are (essentially) locked in ahead of a playoff push, with plenty of teams loading up to make a run at the Stanley Cup.
Vegas used their suspiciously timed fake injuries cap wizardry to land both Noah Hanifin and Tomas Hertl. Carolina landed Jake Guentzel and Evgeny Kuznetsov. Tyler Toffoli went to Winnipeg. Florida grabbed Vladimir Tarasenko.
The Bruins did...stuff.
