The NHL trade deadline is a day each year towards the end of the regular season when teams can trade players with each other. The 2025 NHL trade deadline is on March 3, 2025.
The trade deadline is an important day for teams because it gives them a chance to improve their rosters for the playoffs. Teams can trade for players who can fill holes in their lineup or provide a boost to their team’s performance. The trade deadline can also be a time for teams to get rid of players who are not performing or who are no longer part of their plans.
