The Winnipeg Jets acquired Tyler Toffoli and added depth with Colin Miller, while the Colorado Avalanche bolstered their lineup with acquisitions like Scott Walker and Casey Mittelstadt. The Edmonton Oilers made three acquisitions, including Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick, to enhance their depth. The Carolina Hurricanes secured Jake Guentzel and the Florida Panthers added Kyle Okposo for leadership. The Boston Bruins acquired Pat Maroon for depth, and the New York Rangers made several acquisitions to add depth to their lineup.
