The Mammoth could be active prior to the Deadline, albeit not for rental players. If there is any action, however, Mammoth general manager Bill Armstrong expects it to be closer to next Friday.
"There's still more information out there for us," Armstrong told NHL.com on Friday. "And because it's so tight, I think teams, if they drop four games in a row they don't get to the record that they want, they've set kind of an agenda. And they're going to wait as long as they can to make that decision. So I do think that's why you're seeing not as many trades so far.
"Everybody expected a big flurry of deals to be discussed during the Olympic break and presented once the Olympic break roster freeze ended earlier this week. But not much was done. So I do believe it has to do with teams waiting to see how they do in the next five or so games before choosing to adjust."
The Mammoth hold the first wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference, one point ahead of the Seattle Kraken, who hold the second wild card.
