For those of us watching the expansion draft waiting for the trades, we were disappointed. No trades were announced. And apparently that was for a reason. Seattle made no trades. None. Nada. Zip.

#SeaKraken made no trades with any teams prior to the expansion draft https://t.co/FL8srx5ZGK

With Mark Giordano being on stage last night, you’d think maybe that ends the Giordano to the Rangers rumors, which had rumblings of including Ryan Strome. The snowball effect there was including Zac Jones in any potential Jack Eichel (or insert center here) trade.

However we will all find out what those side-deals were for the picks made on Seattle’s half at around 1pm ET today.

For those wondering, Seattle’s side deals for the expansion draft—and there are apparently several—will be announced tomorrow after 1pm et when the NHL’s trade/signing freeze comes off.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
