Puck Daddy’s 2015 NHL Trade Deadline Live Blog, Hour 6
3:35 p.m. ET: The Bruins have traded defenseman Jordan Caron to the Avalanche for Max Talbot. Sort of a minor move in general for both teams. Boston was done with Caron, and the Avalanche needed some defense depth. Meanwhile, the Bruins seemed to feel the desire to get a playoff-tested gritty forward like Talbot, who has won a Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh in 2009.
3:20 p.m. ET: Sven Baertschi goes from the Calgary Flames to the Vancouver Canucks for a second-round pick, according to TSN. The 22-year old Swiss forward has spent most of this season in the AHL where he's scored eight goals and recorded 21 points in 34 games. He'll reunited with Travis Green, who coached him in Portland. The move won't make Flames Nation happy, as Baertschi showed tremendous scoring ability in junior and is still young. It feels like Calgary is giving up on the forward, feeling he's moved in the wrong direction on their organizational depth chart.
UPDATE: Trevling told reporters that Baertschi was unhappy with his role and had asked to be traded, citing his unwillingness to re-sign with the organization.
3:10 p.m. ET: The deals keep trickling through: Torrey Mitchell and Joey MacDonald head to the Montreal Canadiens in separate deals. The Pittsburgh Penguins re-acquire Ben Lovejoy from the Anaheim Ducks for Simon Despres. Both players are signed through next season. You might remember Lovejoy from his grossly-swollen face on 24/7:
3:05 p.m. ET: Willie Mitchell, your thoughts on Glenn Healy:
Hey #GlenHealy shove it up your ass! @SNHockeyCentral @FlaPanthers are a tad bit "mightier" then your career save percentage. #Catsarecoming

3 p.m. ET: The deadline has arrived! Deals can still trickle in past 3 p.m. ET as teams wait their turn in the trade call line, so we may not be done yet. Several teams like the Red Wings and Rangers made their moves early and closed up shop for the day, but there are always stragglers waiting for the last minute hoping to either shake down an opposing GM or squeeze and extra pick from a deal.
One player who was in the rumor was Cam Atkinson. He can stop checking his phone now as the Blue Jackets announced just before 3 p.m. ET that he's signed a three-year extension worth $10.5 million.
