Today is the last day of NHL games before the 2023 All-Star break, signaling an upcoming four-day streak without regular-season action. While roster movement will slow down on the NHL front over this time, there are still a few notable tidbits to keep track of. As always, we’ll report a comprehensive list of today’s pertinent minor hockey transactions right here.
- Just days ahead of the event, four roster spots have been swapped for the AHL’s All-Star Classic in Laval, Québec.

Defenseman Jack Ahcan (Boston/Providence) and forward Ruslan Iskhakov (NY Islanders/Bridgeport) were named to replace Lettieri and Cuylle, forward Max McCormick (Seattle/Coachella Valley) will replace Poturalski, and forward Alex Belzile (Montreal/Laval) replaces Barron, according to an AHL press release.
