For years now, the NHL Trade Deadline has been the most hectic period of the league calendar. With help from current general managers Bill Guerin and Ken Holland as well as former GMs Neil Smith and Mike Smith, NHL Backstory takes a look at the history and inner workings of the craziest day of the regular season. But this episode doesn't just dig into the Deadline. We take a look at some of the wildest trades in NHL history, from Gretzky to Bourque and Lindros to Draper. Deals that saw superstars traded for prospects and picks, other deals that saw players exchanged for a dollar. With insights from former players Mike Sillinger and Brent Ashton (who happen to be two of the most-traded players in NHL history), we evaluate all the elements of what happens when players are told to pack their bags and report to their newest team.
