im surprised Arizona did nothing. bad move imo. only surprised that Glendening, Sorensen, Bernier and Murray weren't moved out of those guys
Yeah me too, I would have thought at least one of the three guys I have up there would have been moved (probably not both defenseman), or even one of Raanta/Kuemper. Given their lack of picks I would have thought they would've tried to acquire a couple today.

they could've maybe gotten a first for Kuemper and some other mid round picks for others like brassard and goligoski. they should regret this
I’m surprised Oleksiak, Manson, Bernier and Glendenning didn’t get moved. I know Ullmark and BUF are in contract talks, and wanted to get a deal done.
Not quite as surprised on the first two, especially Manson because he's a bigger piece and he still has another year. Definitely most confused on those Red Wings rentals though because I don't see them as long term pieces, and they're both expirings so why not get some picks for them. My best guess would be that Yzerman got so caught up in the Mantha deal that he ran out of time.
I would also say I'm a bit surprised no one took a swing at picking up Boyle or Grabner for the minimum for a playoff run. Not super shocked about that though.
Edit: Or other free agents, Boyle and Grabner are just the top guys IMO so that's who I listed.
Watson is done for the season with an injury, Anisimov has passed through waivers (twice I believe) this season and Dzingel doesn't seem to be able to score unless he's playing for Ottawa.

And especially in light of the facts that they've got (1) expiring free-agent defensemen, and (2) one defense protection slot open.
I kept waiting for Colorado to flip us dubnyuk and a pick for bernier. Was 100% convinced it could happen.
Yeah I'm really not sure why they went with Dubnyk in the first place when there were much better options available. Especially when they already got a number 3 goalie in Johansson.
