| March movement | ||
| Date | Trade | Skinny |
| 3/9 | Calgary trades C Jason Wiemer to New Jersey for a 4th round pick | Devils add a gritty center who can play different roles. |
| 3/9 | Pittsburgh trades D Rick Jackman to Florida for F Petr Taticek | Florida adds some offense to blue line for a former first rounder. |
| 3/9 | Phoenix trades F Tim Jackman to Los Angeles for F Yannick Lehoux | Change of scenery for two depth players. |
| 3/9 | Phoenix trades F Jamie Lundmark to Calgary for a draft pick | Lundmark played junior in Calgary but has been a bust as a pro. |
| 3/9 | St. Louis trades D Eric Weinrich to Vancouver for a prospect and a 3rd round pick | Blues add a solid veteran to the blue line for nexst to nothing. |
| 3/9 | NY Islanders trades LW Oleg Kvasha to Phoenix for a 3rd round pick | Kvasha is big and mobile, but has yet to live up to his potential. |
| 3/9 | Minnesota trades D Willie Mitchell to Dallas for D Martin Skoula and D Shawn Belle | Minnesota could re-sign the pending FA and lose a very good young defenseman, but they get back two guys were first-round picks. |
| 3/9 | San Jose trades F Niko Dimitrakos to Philadelphia for a 3rd round pick | Flyers add a speedy depth player who doesn’t score much. |

| 3/9 | Chicago trades C Tyler Arnason to Ottawa for F Brandon Bochenski and a draft pick | Arnason could be the 2nd-line center Ottawa needs or not. Chicago got rid of a problem and picked up some good scoring potential in Bochenski. |

| 3/9 | Washington trades D Brendan Witt to Nashville for a 1st round pick and F Kris Beech | Big addition to the Predators blue line. And Caps get a decent return for a veteran everyone knew wanted to be traded. |
| 3/9 | Anaheim trades D Sandis Ozolinsh to NY Rangers for a 3rd-round draft pick | Ozolinsh was in rehab until the Olympics. If he’s on, he gives NY the puck-moving D-man they’ve lacked this year. |

| 3/9 | Buffalo trades G Mika Noronen to Vancouver for a 2nd round pick | Canucks get the backup guy they want and Sabres end the logjam between their pipes. |
| 3/9 | Phoenix trades D Denis Gauthier to Philadelphia for LW Josh Gratton and two 2nd-round picks | Flyers add a big-hitting defenseman without giving up any of its top young players. |
| 3/9 | Washington trades RW Jeff Friesen to Anaheim for a 2nd round pick | Ducks bring back a guy who can score if he’s healthy. |
| 3/9 | Phoenix trades D Sean O’Donnell to Anaheim for a 4th round pick | Canucks get a vet who can hold down the fort until some of the top guys come of the DL. |
| 3/9 | New Jersey trades D Sean Brown to Vancouver for F Joel Perrault | Anaheim gets a veteran for a minor-leaguer and maybe some leeway to deal away another D-man. |
| 3/9 | NY Islanders trades D Brad Lukowich to New Jersey for a 3rd round pick | Devils bolster their defense with a slow, but solid playoff-tested veteran. |
| 3/9 | Chicago trades D Todd Simpson to Montreal for a 6th round pick | Canadiens add some depth to their blue line, while the Blackhawks shed salary and veteran defenseman. |
| 3/8 | Toronto trades D Ken Klee to New Jersey for LW Alexander Suglabov | Devils get a dependable vet for their blue line and get rid of a minor-leaguer who is aging faster than progressing. |
| 3/8 | NY Rangers trade LW Ville Nieminen to San Jose for a 3rd-round draft pick | Rangers dumped a player who can be an effective pest, but often takes penalties at bad times. |
| 3/8 | NY Islanders trade RW Mark Parrish and D Brent Sopel to Los Angeles for D Denis Grebeshkov and LW Jeff Tambellini and conditional 3rd-round pick | Great deal for the Kings getting offense up front and on defense without affecting the core roster. |
| 3/8 | Montreal trades G Jose Theodore to Colorado for G David Aebischer | The last goalie Colorado got from the Canadiens was Patrick Roy. Theodore isn't and Montreal saves a bundle moving him while getting a capable backup in return. |
| 3/8 | Columbus trades D Luke Richardson to Toronto for a conditional draft pick | Leafs pick up a warm body who could fill in if they start selling off players. |
| 3/1 | Atlanta trades G Jani Hurme to Anaheim for forward Joel Stepp | Minor-league swap. |
