To Dallas: Mikko Rantanen
To Carolina: <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/logan-stankoven/16428">Logan Stankoven</a>, 2026 1st RD pick, 2027 1st RD pick, 2026 3rd RD pick, 2027 3rd RD pick
<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/mikko-rantanen/3522">Mikko Rantanen</a> clearly had no intentions of signing long term with the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/carolina-hurricanes-depth-chart">Carolina </a><a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/carolina-hurricanes-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hurricanes</a> since he joined the team in a blockbuster trade from the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/colorado-avalanche-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Colorado Avalanche</a> back in January. Now, he's heading to Dallas, where he will play a crucial role in that top unit. The <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/dallas-stars-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dallas</a><a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/dallas-stars-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Stars</a> are scary, stacked in all areas, from offense to defense and in goal.

1. Mikko Rantanen → Dallas Stars

To Florida: Brad Marchand 
To Boston: 2027 2nd RD pick (conditional)
This trade was a last-minute shock to the hockey world. Former <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/boston-bruins-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boston Bruins</a> captain <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/brad-marchand/3708" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brad Marchand</a> is leaving behind the only team he’s ever known and heading to the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/florida-panthers-depth-chart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florida Panthers</a>. This is an absolutely shocking trade, as the Bruins and Panthers have been playoff foes for a few seasons now. I think Marchand will fit seamlessly into that lineup with <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/matthew-tkachuk/4061" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Matthew Tkachuk</a>, <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/aleksander-barkov/4051" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aleksander Barkov,</a> and <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/sam-bennett/4060">Sam Bennett. </a>

2. Brad Marchand → Florida Panthers

To Colorado: Brock Nelson, <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/william-dufour/77940">William Dufour</a>
To New York: <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/calum-ritchie/68694">Calum Ritchie</a>, <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/oliver-kylington/3478">Oliver Kylington</a>, 2026 1st RD pick, 2028 3rd RD pick 
<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/brock-nelson/3874">Brock Nelson</a> has been a <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/new-york-islanders-depth-chart">New York Islander</a> for over a decade, playing every game of his entire NHL career on the Isle. This was a good rebuilding trade for New York, as it was time to move on from the aging center. For the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/colorado-avalanche-depth-chart">Colorado Avalanche</a>, they are stacking up their roster for a strong push come playoff time.

3. Brock Nelson → Colorado Avalanche

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/USATSI_25599170-scaled-e1741382741657-768x432.jpg

To Tampa: Yanni Gourde, Oliver Bjorkstrand, Kyle Aucoin, 2026 5th RD pick
To Seattle: <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/michael-eyssimont/3973">Michael Eyssimont</a>, 2025 2nd RD pick, 2026 1st RD pick
<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/yanni-gourde/3326">Yanni Gourde</a> is headed back to the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/tampa-bay-lightning-depth-chart">Tampa Bay Lightning</a> after three and a half seasons with the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/seattle-kraken-depth-chart">Seattle Kraken</a>. Gourde won back-to-back Stanley Cups with Tampa in 2020 and 2021. Add a solid forward like <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/oliver-bjorkstrand/3311">Oliver Bjorkstrand</a> into the deal, and it’s clear the Lightning are all in for a playoff push with this core.

4. Yanni Gourde → Tampa Bay Lightning

To Vegas: Reilly Smith
To New York: <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/brendan-brisson/3342">Brendan Brisson</a>, 2025 3rd RD pick
<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/reilly-smith/3937">Reilly Smith</a> is packing his bags from the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/new-york-rangers-depth-chart">New York Rangers</a> and heading back to Vegas. He recently played with the <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/depth-chart/vegas-golden-knights-depth-chart">Vegas Golden Knights</a>, winning a Stanley Cup in 2023. Like the Lightning with Gourde, Vegas decides to bring back Smith, hoping for some playoff magic come April.

5. Reilly Smith → Vegas Golden Knights
