The NHL trade deadline on March 6, 2026, saw several deals, including two involving Swedish players. Timothy Liljegren moved from the San Jose Sharks to the Washington Capitals, while Victor Olofsson was part of a larger trade sending him from the Colorado Avalanche to the Calgary Flames. Nazem Kadri returned to the Avalanche in that blockbuster exchange.
