    • Acquired in deal
      New Jersey obtained Cotter and a 2025 third-round pick from Vegas on Saturday in exchange for Alexander Holtz and Akira Schmid.

      Advice: Cotter collected seven goals, 25 points, 100 shots on net and 233 hits in 76 games during the 2023-24 campaign. He could occupy a bottom-six role with the Devils next season while seeing some power-play time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:05 pm
       
    • Involved in trade
      Holtz was acquired by the Golden Knights from the Devils along with Akira Schmid on Saturday in exchange for Paul Cotter and a 2025 third-round pick.

      Advice: Holtz provided 16 goals and 28 points in 82 contests with the Devils in 2023-24. The 22-year-old forward was selected with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft and has the potential to make significant strides offensively. Holtz might start the 2024-25 campaign serving in a middle-six capacity. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:03 pm
       
    • Getting bought out
      The Sabres are buying out the remainder of Skinner's contract, GM Kevyn Adams told Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic on Saturday.

      Advice: Once the process is complete, Skinner will be eligible to become an unrestricted free agent Monday. He struggled last season with 46 points, including 24 goals, across 74 appearances. That's a sharp decline from 2022-23, when he finished with 35 markers and 82 points in 79 outings. Despite his recent drop in production, the 32-year-old is still capable of rebounding and being an impact forward in a top-six role. It wouldn't be surprising if he signs a one-year contract with a contender to re-establish his value before potentially getting a bigger payday in the summer of 2025.

    • Obtained in trade
      Dallas acquired Ellis and a 2026 seventh-round pick from Toronto on Saturday in exchange for the negotiation rights of Chris Tanev.

      Advice: Ellis, a pending restricted free agent with arbitration rights, earned four goals and 14 points in 36 games with AHL Toronto during the 2023-24 campaign. The 24-year-old forward doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Assuming he signs with the Stars, he will probably start next season in the minors. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:54 pm
       
    • Becomes Wild man in Draft Day trade
      Lauko has been traded to Minnesota from Boston in exchange for Vinni Lettieri, reports TSN.ca. The teams also exchanged 2024 fourth round picks.

      Advice: The 24-year-old Lauko spent 60 regular-season games with Boston in 2023-24, delivering two goals and eight assists along with 32 PIM. He got into two fights last season, both against the Wild. Lauko will vie for a bottom-six role in the land of lakes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:04 am
       
    • Heads back to Boston in trade
      Lettieri has been acquired in trade by the Bruins from the Wild in exchange for Jakub Lauko, reports TSN.ca. The teams also exchanged 2024 fourth-round draft picks.

      Advice: Lettieri is a 29-year-old depth center who put up five goals and four assists in 46 regular-season games while averaging under 10 minutes a game with Minnesota in 2023-24. He has played 129 NHL games over the last six seasons, including one previous game with the Bruins in 2022-23. That season, Lettieri played 48 games with the Bruins' AHL affiliate in Providence, delivering 49 points (23 goals, 26 assists). Lettieri will vie for a role on the Bruins' fourth line in camp.

    • Traded to Pittsburgh
      Hayes was traded to Pittsburgh from St. Louis for future considerations Saturday, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

      Advice: A second-round pick in 2025 goes with him, but it's the dreaded "future considerations" headed the other way in what's ostensibly a salary dump by the Blues. Hayes doesn't do much with the puck. He's not a fast skater, doesn't use his size and can't forecheck. But he can become a bottom-six pivot in Pittsburgh behind Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, as he won't be expected to provide offense. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:35 am
       
    • Traded by Tampa Bay
      The Kings acquired Jeannot from Tampa Bay on Saturday in exchange for the No. 118 pick in the 2024 NHL Draft and a 2025 second-round selection.

      Advice: Tampa Bay moves on from a failed experiment, and Jeannot gets a fresh chance in a system where his style of hockey may be better appreciated. He may not return to his 41-point plateau from his rookie season, but Jeannot will add some grit to the Kings. He provided seven goals, 14 points, 75 PIM and 211 hits in 55 appearances during the 2023-24 campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:14 am
       
    • Heads to Tampa Bay in trade
      Geekie , J.J. Moser, a 2025 second-round pick and the No. 199 selection in the 2024 NHL Draft were acquired by Tampa Bay on Saturday from Utah in exchange for Mikhail Sergachev.

      Advice: Geekie was the 11th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. He tallied 43 goals and 56 assists in 54 games between Wenatchee and Swift Current of the WHL in 2023-24. He also dressed for two playoff games for Utah's AHL affiliate in Tucson. Geekie immediately elevates Tampa Bay's thin prospect pool, especially down the middle. At 6-foot-4, the left-shooting pivot will eventually bring size, skill and vision to the Lightning. Geekie is continuing to work on his skating mechanics, as that was the knock on him on Draft Day.
