NHL Draft and Trades Frenzy

The NHL draft is just days away, and teams are making significant moves. The Chicago Blackhawks acquired defenseman Bowen Byram and forward Jordan Greenway from the Buffalo Sabres, sending the No. 4 and No. 45 overall picks, along with defenseman Riley Stillman, to Buffalo. In another notable trade, the Washington Capitals landed veteran winger Jordan Kyrou from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for forward Connor McMichael, defenseman Milton Gastrin, and the No. 16 pick in Friday's draft. The Ottawa Senators, meanwhile, secured left winger William Eklund, prospect Kasper Halttunen, and the rights to Brandon Svoboda from the San Jose Sharks for their No. 9 overall selection. The New Jersey Devils also dealt the rights to pending restricted free agents Simon Nemec and Maxim Tsyplakov to the Calgary Flames for two first-round picks and a second-round pick.
