First trade of the off-season officially completed

The first trade has officially been completed according to reports this morning.

The Nashville Predators and Tampa Bay Lightning both got eliminated in the first round. The Predators put up a fight against a deep Canucks team losing in 6 games.

The Tampa Bay Lightning didn't really stand a chance against a stacked Florida Panthers team and it showed as they lost in the first round in 5 games.

Today both teams have combined for a surprising trade, Nashville sent Ryan McDonagh back to Tampa where he won a Stanley Cup with them.

Ryan McDonagh has been with the Nashville Predators for the past two years, and is now going back to Tampa Bay where he spent 5 years, from 2017-2022.

McDonagh was originally traded to Nashville as a cap dump, but it seems the Lightning feel they were a better team when he was on the roster.
