5 Bold Trade Predictions Ahead of the 2023-24 NHL Season

The 2023-24 NHL trade market officially opened July 1. Since then, 11 trades have taken place and have involved such stars as Erik Karlsson, Alex DeBrincat and Anthony Duclair.

It's anyone's guess which notable players could be on the move during the coming regular season. Nevertheless, there's enough time before the puck drops on Oct. 10 to give it our best shot.

With a high number of clubs carrying limited salary-cap space, there will likely be more trade activity during the second half of the season. Deals involving noteworthy talent such as Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele and Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson might not occur until close to the anticipated March 8 trade deadline.
