There are three unfortunate truths about the NHL trade deadline.
- Your favorite team probably will not end up with that one player you’ve been really coveting and advocating for on social media the past month
- They will overpay for a minor addition.
- If your team is bad, you are losing your favorite players.
This season, there is also a fourth unfortunate truth.
- Nobody wants to make trades because of quarantining periods and lack of knowledge on how they will perform outside of their division.
So with the trade deadline only two weeks away, the odds aren’t great for a blockbuster move, but that may be the best thing for the Hurricanes.
