NHL 2019 trade deadline live tracker

The two biggest players were dealt just minutes before the NHL trade deadline on Monday afternoon.

Mark Stone and Wayne Simmonds were both playing on expiring contracts and were involved in two of the day’s final trades.

Stone, who has 28 goals and 62 points for the Ottawa Senators, was sent to the Vegas Golden Knights. The 26-year-old, who is having his best season in the NHL, has scored at least 20 goals in five straight seasons.

In return, the Senators get top prospects in defenceman Erik Brannstrom and forward Oscar Lindberg and 2020 second-round draft pick.

Other teams across the league got to work earlier on Monday.

Simmonds — a physical six-foot-two, 185-pounder — is now a member of the Nashville Predators, leaving the Philadelphia Flyers. The 11-year NHL veteran has 16 goals and 11 assists for 27 points and has picked up 90 penalty minutes in 62 games with the Flyers this season.
