A flurry of last-minute deals, highlighted by the for bluechip prospect Erik Brannstrom, made MondaysNHL trade deadline one of the busiest days for player swaps in several years. By the time the final trade was announced a little after the official deadline of 3 p.m. ET, involving 35 players and 17 future draft picks had been completed.Aside from the NHL Draft weekend in late June, the last week in February has become the busiest period on the schedule for Austin Pruitt Jersey player movement.Before the day even began, there were several high-profile players who were already moved. The biggest deal took placeFriday when the Senators for a pair of prospects and high draft picks. Additional deals followed on Saturday, as the Rangers , and Columbus struck a second deal with Ottawa by .MORE TRADE DEADLINE:Unlike the Duchene trade, however, neither of those moves involved prospects.Player movement on Monday moved at a snails pace, with Winnipegs for prospect Brendan Lemieux and a 2019 first-round pick serving as the juiciest storyline well into the early afternoon. It wasnt until the final hour whenthe remaining prizes, namely Stone and Philadelphias Wayne Simmonds, were sent packing to their respective western conference destinations in Las Vegas and Nashville.While the potential for established NHL players to change addre ses attracted the most attention, the cost in draft picks and prospects nece sary to acquire them became an integral part of the discu sion, especially in this salary cap era where young, cheap talent are as critical to a struggling bottom feeder as the veteran hired guns are to the Stanley Cup contenders.Teases in the form of occasional two-game winning streaks notwithstanding, the grim reality of a hockey-le s spring for fans of just under half the teams in the NHL likely set in sometime around Jalen Beeks Jersey Christmas. And as demoralizing and inadequate the prospect of habitual losing may make them feel, the period surrounding the trade deadline always presents them with the opportunity to cash in on a contending teams desperation for postseason succe s.Knowing what we now know, lets analyze the prospects involved in the last seven days of frenzied wheeling and dealing.NHL DRAFT 2019: | The trade:Minnesota C Charlie Coyle to Boston for RW/C Ryan Donato and a conditional 2019 fifth-round pick (fourth round if Bruins win one playoff round in 2019)The prospect:Ryan Donato, RW/C60, 193 | 4/9/96 | Boston, NHL | BOS 2nd/2014The Harvard-schooled Donato got off to a slow start with the Bruins after he played well for them late last season. Helooked far from the Calder Trophy candidate most thought he would be this season. Keep in mind, however, that through Monday, Donato among NHL rookies at even strength ranked first in individual chances for per 60 minutes (18.74), second in shots-per-60 (10.96), and third in individual scoring chances for-per-60 (9.21). The shooting percentage is paltry 4.4 percent (three even-strength goals on 69 Tampa Bay Rays Jersey shots), but the Wild should chalk it up to puck luck more than anything, as Donato scored three goals on only 15 even-strength shots (20.0 percent) a year ago.Donato can play both center and wing. His best a set is his shot he owns a powerful shot-release combination that makes his low shooting percentage seem more than a bit perplexing. He can play a fast-paced style and will exploit flat-footed defenders with bursts of speed, but Donatos decision-making can at times be puzzling.It also seemed like he regre sed from his college days by playing with a lower compete level and sputtering motor. Still, hes an offensive forward with top-six potential who is only a minor tweak or two from rejuvenating his season and taking positives with him into training camp.The trade:Ottawa trades C Matt Duchene and RHD Julius Bergman to Columbus for RW Vitalii Abramov, RW Jonathan David son, 2019 1st Round Pick (top-three protected), Conditional 2020 1st Round PickThe prospects:VitalyAbramov, LW/RW59, 171 | 5/8/98 | Cleveland, AHL | CBJ 3rd/2016A former QMJHL scoring champion with Gatineau in 2016-17, Abramov is a Ru sian-born offensive forward who makes up for a lack of size with incredible stick-handling, vision and elusivene s. He averaged 100 points in three seasons in major junior, and through Sunday was 27th among under-21 AHL scorers with 22 points (12 goals, 10 a sists) in 52 games for the Blue Jackets affiliate in Cleveland.Drafted in the third round in 2016, Abramov has rotated from the left-wing slot on the top three lines three lines and sees most of his power-play time on the second unit. He is as good a finisher as he is a set-up man, and he can control the flow of an offensive zone po se sion either from the half wall or keeping his feet moving and eyes peeled during a cycle. Abramovs balance has improved, but hes an offense-first winger who tries to avoid contact and use his agility and escapability to sidestep pre sure. Abramov isnt the type of player a coach would want on the ice to help protect a lead late in the third period.Frompurely a puck-skills perspective, Abramov is a blue-chip prospect. Some said his freewheeling ways would have ticked off Mallex Smith Jersey Blue Jackets head coach John Tortorella, but he plays a similar style to Artemi Panarin, who has been a star since being traded to Columbus. Considering the number of two-way forwards in Ottawas system, the acquisition of Abramov adds a needed wrinkle to the prospect pool and can be seen as the replacement for sniping winger Jonathan Dahlen, who the Senators traded to Vancouver for Alexandre Burrows.GRADES: Jonathan David son, RW511, 185 | 3/12/97 | Djugardens, SHL | CBJ 6th/2017Drafted in 2017 as a 1997-born double overager, David son is one of several speedy NHL-drafted prospects with aDjugardens squad that likes to play an up-tempo style. More of a playmaker than a finisher, David son is a heady player who has improved the physical aspect of his game in the form of finishing his checks, battling in the corners and maintaining his balance as he powers into the zone. You get the impre sion that his coach leans on him heavily for all situations, and like Abramov, David son sees most of his power-play time on the second unit. David son, who has been averaging close to 19 minutes a game since the new year, plays at even strength mostly with fellow neophytes Marcus David son (BUF) and Emil Bemstrom (CBJ).Still, its his fourth season in the league and he turns 22 in le s than three weeks. His stats (21 points in 36 games through Monday) put his production a bit in perspective and are in line with what one would expect from one of the SHLs younger veterans."David son, a sixth-round pick in 2017, gives the Senators two-way depth on the wing, and hes proven to be a low-maintenance prospect Yonny Chirinos Jersey no matter the style of the center he flanks.The trade:Anaheim trades RHD Brandon Montour to B
