The race for the playoffs is on, with just a few weeks left in the regular season. Teams are fighting for the best seed possible, and a chance to secure home ice advantage throughout, while others are just hoping for a shot at Rasmus Dahlin and the rest of the top prospects in the upcoming draft.
Even though there is still a lot of hockey to be played, many fans are looking forward to the offseason and the decisions their teams have to make. How much will the Detroit Red Wings have to dish out to re-sign their young restricted free agents? Will Ottawa continue to sell off their best assets? What does Vegas do after their impressive inaugural campaign?
All of your questions will be answered this weekend by our very own Brian La Rose, so make sure to submit them using #PHRMailbag on Twitter or by leaving a comment down below!
You can read our post-deadline mailbag right here, where Brian breaks down some of the very biggest deals of the season.

Does Vegas look to trade for Karlsson and Ryan again this offseason or use their cap space to reel in a big fish like Tavares? Heck, if they don’t have to take on Ryan, could they get Karlsson and Tavares?

Who do you think are the best defense prospects in this year’s draft and where are they ranked in the draft?
Paul Heyman
Do the blues buy out Bouwmeester this summer along with maybe some others and maybe try to either sign Stastny again or go after maybe Tavares and some other big names?

Unfortunately you can not buyout a player that is injured.

When you click a players name, it takes you to hockey reference. Would you ever consider using strictly elite prospects instead of hockey reference? I know some players you already use Eliteprospects.

The GM candidates in Carolina are dropping like flies. What’s the reason? Is Dundon too hands on or did he tell these guys that Peters will remain the coach?
