Non-playoff NHL teams will be allowed to trade, but only with each other: report Globe_Sports
This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Ottawa Senators general manager Pierre Dorion watches the team practice during training camp in Ottawa, Friday, Sept. 13, 2019. The Senators were one of the seven teams that did not qualify for the 24-team playoffs, but they can make trades with the other six in the meantime.
Those seven teams are the Detroit Red Wings, Ottawa Senators, San Jose Sharks, Los Angeles Kings, Anaheim Ducks, Buffalo Sabres and New Jersey Devils.This is actually keeping with traditional NHL rules, as teams are allowed to make trades after the trade deadline. However, NHL regulations prohibit players acquired after the deadline from playing in the postseason with their new team, hence why post-deadline trades are so rare.
The lottery will feature two phases, with the first phase taking place June 26, before the qualifying postseason round. If the top three picks are all awarded to bottom-seven teams, the second phase of the lottery won’t take place, and all remaining teams will be seeded in reverse order of the regular-season standings.
