Stone will wear 61 for Vegas. #VegasBorn pic.twitter.com/G5fn1EtP3p
Erik Brannstrom is a special talent who has continued to take positive steps forward in his first season in North America. Vegas has now traded away two of its three first-rounders from its first ever entry draft. Their stockpiling of assets landed them some big fish.

The price tag for Ottawa Senators forward Mark Stone has apparently spooked some prominent suitors. Calgary Flames VP of hockey operations Don Maloney said "we were right in the middle of a big deal last night, and it went away from us. The ask was too much." That was for Mark Stone. The Winnipeg Jets moved their 2019 first-round pick for Rangers center Kevin Hayes, making a Stone deal unlikely. So where could he end up? Could the Nashville Predators step up? The Boston Bruins are in on Stone, as are reportedly the Vegas Golden Knights. Although one wonders if GM George McPhee would do business with Pierre Dorion after the Erik Karlsson debacle last trade deadline. Vegas had a better deal on the table than what the Senators ultimately snagged from San Jose.

Jets get: C Kevin Hayes
Rangers get: 2019 first-round pick, winger Brendan Lemieux and a conditional pick

The deal:
Blue Jackets get: G Keith Kinkaid
Devils get: 2022 fifth-round pick
The Columbus Blue Jackets gave themselves another option in net by acquiring Keith Kinkaid, and paid a wildly low price to do so, sending a 2022 fifth-rounder back to the New Jersey Devils. Grades

Feb. 24
Gustav Nyquist to the Sharks
Sharks get: F Gustav Nyquist
Red Wings get: Conditional second-round pick in 2019 (the lower of Florida's or San Jose's selections), conditional 2020 third-round pick (becomes San Jose's 2020 second-round pick if the Sharks reach 2019 Stanley Cup Final or re-signs Nyquist)

Senators get: F Anthony Duclair, 2020 second-round pick, 2021 second-round pick

Senators get: F Vitaly Abramov, F Jonathan Davidsson, 2019 first-round pick (top-3 protected), conditional 2020 first-round pick (if Duchene re-signs with Columbus)
