The NHL trade deadline is officially here. The Tampa Bay Lightning have almost certainly completed all of their business for this season. They made their big acquisition last weekend when they added forward Blake Coleman in exchange for Nolan Foote and a first round pick. Yesterday, they made a smaller move signing defender Zach Bogosian who had his contract terminated with the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday.
Bogosian is likely in Tampa to provide some defensive depth while Ryan McDonagh and Jan Rutta are still hurt.
