NHL Off Season Transaction Tracker for July 19th

What did your team do today? This update mill will be posted daily.

The NHL has announced they have an Olympic break built-in next season, anticipating that NHL players will be allowed to participate in the 2022 Winter Olympics.

The NHL 2021-22 schedule will have a Winter Olympic break built into it, according to sources. Also, it sounds like the All-Star Game hosted by @GoldenKnights will be the last NHL game before that break.
