Duhatschek Notebook: In search of subtle deadline deals, Preds answers lie within and time for Sharks to reset

New York Times  

The calendar clicks over to February on Saturday and by now, most NHL teams have sorted themselves into buyers and sellers ahead of the trade deadline. Most of the early attention was paid to the draft choices that came Ottawa’s way, not Duclair – who was essentially being cast off by the Blue Jackets but has thrived since joining the Sens. Take, for example, the Nashville Predators – who won two crazy games this past week, one over the Washington Capitals and one over the New Jersey Devils – to move to within two points of the Golden Knights in the chase for the second wild-card spot Here is a team, Nashville, that has made a series of all-in moves ever since qualifying for the 2017 Stanley Cup final and losing heartbreakingly to the Pittsburgh Penguins. And Hall’s numbers are OK in Arizona – 16 points, including seven goals, in his first 18 games. For a team that made it to the conference final a year ago, it’s a hard fall – made worse by the fact that the Sharks don’t have their own first-round pick this season, thanks to the Erik Karlsson trade.
