Trades have begun to occur, with the New York Rangers acquiring Vladimir Tarasenko and the Toronto Maple Leafs bringing in Ryan O'Reilly. However, there are still numerous high-profile players available for trade.

There are rumors that the Vegas Golden Knights are pursuing notable players such as Patrick Kane, Jakob Chychrun, and Timo Meier.

In fact, the Golden Knights have made a trade to create more cap space, potentially setting the stage for a significant acquisition.

The #VGK have traded Shea Weber's contract and a 2023 fifth-round pick to #coyotes in exchange for Dysin Mayo. This frees up #VGK to make a subsequent trade and acquire a player with term. Having Weber at $7.85M for three more seasons in LTIR severely limits roster flexibility. The #coyotes can use Shea Weber's cap hit to help reach the salary cap floor going forward. They actually went well down the road with Montreal last year and nearly acquired Weber's contract then.

This was also confirmed by Kevin Weekes:

Personally I do not understand the purpose of this trade for Arizona, but it's a great move by the Golden Knights!
