The deals made at the NHL trade deadline will shape the way the rest of the season plays out. Everything from blockbusters to under-the-radar trades can make all the difference come playoff time.
Here a look at every team's current trade-deadline state and each team's most pressing question as they head into the final days before the Feb. 26 deadline.

Anaheim Ducks
Cap space: $16.9 million
Is this Anaheim's last chance to reach another Stanley Cup final?
The Ducks should be in by-any-means-necessary mode as they search for additional talent at the deadline. Ryan Getzlaf, Ryan Kesler and Corey Perry are all in their 30s and likely won't have many more shots at raising a Cup.
Clauses:
Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry, Ryan Kesler and Kevin Bieksa have no-move clauses.
Andrew Cogliano has a no-trade clause.
Ryan Miller, Patrick Eaves (IR) and Antoine Vermette have modified no-trade clauses.

Arizona Coyotes
Cap space: $74.7 million
Can anyone put together enough assets to acquire Oliver Ekman-Larsson?
Like Erik Karlsson, Ekman-Larsson's contract ends after next season, and it doesn't appear the team can keep him around. They would have to project an astonishing turnaround next year to justify not trading him.
Clauses:
Derek Stepan has a no-trade clause.
Alex Goligoski has a no-move clause.
Niklas Hjalmarsson has a modified no-trade clause and no-move clause.
Jason Demers has a modified no-trade clause.
Dave Bolland (IR) has a modified no-trade clause.

Boston Bruins
Cap space: $3.4 million
Would Patrick Maroon or Ryan McDonagh make Boston unstoppable?
The Bruins are every bit as strong as the Tampa Bay Lightning, ranking second in Corsi percentage and first in goals-for percentage. Pulling off a trade for the Edmonton Oilers' goal scorer or the New York Rangers' top defenseman without disrupting the group of young players who have made an impact this year would make Boston a Cup favorite.
Clauses:
David Krejci, Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand, Zdeno Chara and David Backes have no-move clauses.
Tuukka Rask and Matt Beleskey have modified no-move clauses.

Buffalo Sabres
Cap space: $25.9 million
Will the Sabres get a first-round pick for Evander Kane?
Rick Nash's presence on the open market might turn Kane into a consolation prize and drive down his price. With 38 points in 56 games, he's had a solid season, but concerns about his presence in the locker room and the lack of a consistent all-around game might keep the Sabres from getting top dollar.
Clauses:
Kyle Okposo has a no-move clause.
Jason Pominville has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Josh Gorges has a modified no-trade clause.

Calgary Flames
Cap space: $9.4 million
Is adding depth scoring enough for the Flames to compete in the playoffs?
The Flames are a borderline contender, meaning one or two players could put them in the conversation. It's possible Sam Bennett's name could enter the deadline talk. Aside from a major deal, Calgary needs a role player who can produce without selling the farm. Maybe they could attempt to rekindle some scoring from Radim Vrbata or Patrick Sharp.
Clauses:
Michael Frolik, Matt Stajan, Kris Versteeg, T.J. Brodie, Michael Stone and Mike Smith have modified no-trade clauses.
Troy Brouwer and Mark Giordano have no-trade clauses.

Carolina Hurricanes
Cap space: $74.4 million
Could a Justin Faulk deal land the Canes the scoring they need?
The Canes are dominating the shot counter, ranking No. 1 in Corsi percentage, but rank 25th in goals scored per 60 minutes. Adding a sniper to the mix could help Carolina finish some of those chances. The young crop of defensemen could make Faulk expendable. As a top-pair blueliner, he would be very valuable on the open market.
Clauses:
Jordan Staal and Jeff Skinner have no-move clauses.
Justin Williams, Scott Darling and Cam Ward have modified no-trade clauses.

Chicago Blackhawks
Cap space: $3.1 million
Can the Hawks collect future pieces at the deadline?
This is new, huh. Chicago doesn't have much to trade away, but needs to start thinking toward a 2018-19 retool that will get them back in contention in the Central.
Clauses:
Patrick Kane, Jonathan Toews, Artem Anisimov, Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook have no-move clauses.
Corey Crawford (IR) has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.

Colorado Avalanche
Cap space: $39.7 million
Should the Avs stay the course or aim for a postseason berth?
The Avs have a fun and offensively dangerous team that could be exciting in the playoffs. However, with young stars Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen leading the way, the current direction is too strong for Colorado to start dealing prospects and picks for rentals.
Clauses:
Carl Soderberg has a modified no-trade clause.
Erik Johnson has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.

Columbus Blue Jackets
Cap space: $22.9 million
Would a goal scorer make the Blue Jackets contenders?
Since the Blue Jackets are set up to compete for years to come, it doesn't seem wise for them to go all-in on a player like Nash or Kane. But with Sergei Bobrovsky playing well and the Jackets' young defensemen dominating, it might be worth adding someone like Michael Grabner to boost a late-season run.
Clauses:
Brandon Dubinsky, Nick Foligno and Sergei Bobrovsky.
Jussi Jokinen has a modified no-trade clause.
Cam Atkinson has a no-trade clause.

Dallas Stars
Cap space: $4.1 million
Is this Tyler Seguin and Jamie Benn's best shot at a Cup?
Dallas is third in scoring rate in the West and third in goals-for percentage, putting them right in the mix to come out of the West. Seguin and Benn have made the Stars competitive for years, but this is the first time in a while that Dallas has also had solid defensive play and goaltending. Trading away a first-round pick for a key rental player shouldn't be out of the question.
Clauses:
Jamie Benn, Alexander Radulov, Martin Hanzal and Ben Bishop have no-move clauses.
Jason Spezza has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Tyler Seguin, Dan Hamhuis, Marc Methot (IR) and Kari Lehtonen have modified no-trade clauses.

Detroit Red Wings
Cap space: $233,525
What can the Red Wings get for Mike Green?
Detroit is in dire need of a fire sale, but many of their aging players have no-trade or no-move clauses. Green is the most valuable player who would likely waive his no-trade clause in order to land with a contender. But considering Green's defensive shortcomings, it might be tough to get much more than a second-round pick. Still, teams sometimes get desperate on deadline day.
Clauses:
Gustav Nyquist, Justin Abdelkader, Darren Helm, Mike Green, Danny DeKeyser, Jonathan Ericsson and Trevor Daley have no-trade clauses.
Frans Nielsen has a no-move clause.
Niklas Kronwall and Jimmy Howard have modified no-trade clause.

Edmonton Oilers
Cap space: $36.5 million
Can the Oilers stockpile enough assets to make offseason deals?
Edmonton clearly needs a better supporting cast for Connor McDavid. Trading away a player like Patrick Maroon may help them grab picks or prospects to make more deals during the offseason to bring in proven players.
Clauses:
Milan Lucic, Andrej Sekera, Kris Russell and Cam Talbot have no-move clauses.

Florida Panthers
Cap space: $32.1 million
Can the Cats get any future pieces?
While the Panthers have all the high-end talent in place to compete, their role players and goaltending simply aren't good enough to seriously contend. It will be tough for them to find teams willing to give up assets for a past-his-prime rental like Radim Vrbata or flawed role players who are under contract like Alex Petrovic, Jamie McGinn or Nick Bjugstad.
Clauses:
Evgenii Dadonov and Keith Yandle have no-move clauses.
Roberto Luongo has a modified no-trade clause.

Los Angeles Kings
Cap space: $16.9 million
Could the Kings pull off another Marian Gaborik deal?
Acquiring Gaborik in 2014 helped push Los Angeles to a Stanley Cup. Could they strike gold with another flawed goal scorer like Kane, Grabner or Thomas Vanek?
Clauses:
Anze Kopitar has a no-move clause.
Dustin Brown has a modified no-trade clause.

Montreal Canadiens
Cap space: $32.4 million
Will the Habs blow it up?
Two core players who helped elevate the Canadiens to be a (somewhat) consistent competitor over the past 10 years could be gone at the deadline. Montreal might field offers on Max Pacioretty and Carey Price. Dealing them would signal a completely new direction for a team that hasn't been able to get over the hump. We could also see a long-awaited Alex Galchenyuk trade come to fruition.
Clauses:
Jeff Petry and Carey Price have no-move clauses.
Karl Alzner has a modified no-trade clause.

Minnesota Wild
Cap space: $601,087
Is there a franchise-changing move to be made?
Same core, same results. Even under Bruce Boudreau, the Wild couldn't make it out of the first round last year. The Wild have played well of late, but they still don't show signs of matching up with the best of the best. It doesn't seem out of the question that GM Chuck Fletcher could take a big swing by dealing someone like Jason Zucker or Charlie Coyle for a star player.
Clauses:
Zach Parise, Mikko Koivu and Ryan Suter have no-move clauses.
Eric Staal, Jared Spurgeon and Devan Dubnyk have modified no-trade clauses.

Nashville Predators
Cap space: $14.9 million
Are the Preds Cup favorites without a big splash?
Nashville has the best goals-for percentage in the Western Conference and a deep roster that was bolstered by a deal for Kyle Turris. Adding scoring depth in the form of a player like Ottawa's Mike Hoffman would make the Predators even more dangerous, but with a Cup-worthy roster right now, the Preds don't have to make a crazy deal to add one more piece.
Clauses:
Alexei Emelin has a modified no-trade clause.
Pekka Rinne has a modified no-trade clause and no-move clause.

New Jersey Devils
Cap space: 35.9 million
Is it worth sacrificing the future for a big name?
The Devils haven't been in the playoffs since they lost the Stanley Cup final in 2013, so it wouldn't be crazy for them to be desperate for postseason hockey. But New Jersey is in great position to compete for years to come with Taylor Hall in his prime and 2017's No. 1 pick Nico Hischier. It won't be an easy call because they are a few players away from being a team that would worry the Eastern Conference contenders.
Clauses:
Travis Zajac, Andy Greene and Cory Schneider have a no-trade clauses.
Ryane Clowe (IR) has a no-move clause.
Marcus Johansson has a modified no-trade clause.

New York Islanders
Cap space: $6.7 million
Will John Tavares's contract status push the Isles to be buyers?
The Islanders do not appear to be a true contender and are a long shot for a playoff spot, but they may have to keep swinging rather than waste the potential final year of John Tavares in New York. Trading Tavares and Josh Bailey would land the Isles an incredible number of picks and prospects to rebuild around, but are the Isles ready to signal the end of the J.T. era?
Clauses:
John Tavares has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Andrew Ladd and Johnny Boychuk have no-move clauses.

New York Rangers
Cap space: $3.6 million
Will a fire sale pay off?
Rangers fans might not be happy, but the Blueshirts are doing the right thing selling everyone who isn't nailed down. They have been competitive team for a long time, but now it makes sense to take a step backward to improve in the long run by dealing Nash, Mats Zuccarello, McDonagh and Grabner.
Clauses:
Rick Nash has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Kevin Shattenkirk, Henrik Lundqvist and Marc Staal have no-move clauses.
Brendan Smith and Ryan McDonagh have modified no-trade clauses.

Ottawa Senators
Cap space: $5.7 million
Will Ottawa deal Karlsson?
Trading Erik Karlsson is the best move for the Sens assuming they can't afford to sign him to a long-term contract. With another year on his deal, he is incredibly valuable on the open market. Dealing their Swedish superstar could jumpstart what is likely to be a long rebuild in Ottawa.
Clauses:
Mike Hoffman, Derick Brassard, Zack Smith, Alex Burrows, Nate Thompson, Erik Karlsson and Johnny Oduya have modified no-trade clauses.
Bobby Ryan and Dion Phaneuf have modified no-trade and no-move clauses.

Philadelphia Flyers
Cap space: $11.4 million
Is there a low-cost role player who can make a difference for the Flyers?
The Flyers are stuck in the middle. They are in the race, but aren't a legitimate contender. Philadelphia is set up well for the future, so they don't want to give up assets to make a huge splash, and it would be better off adding someone like Colorado's Blake Comeau or Columbus's Matt Calvert to give their forward group some help without dealing a top draft pick or prospect.
Clauses:
Claude Giroux has a no-move clause.
Valtteri Filppula has a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Wayne Simmonds has a modified no-trade clause.

Pittsburgh Penguins
Cap space: $927,996
Will a quality depth center be available for the Penguins?
For the past few years, players like Nick Bonino and Matt Cullen were big contributors down the stretch and into the playoffs. Both are gone now, and Pittsburgh is missing the depth that helped them win the last two Stanley Cups. A player like Montreal's Tomas Plekanec could give them just enough pop in the bottom six to make another run.
Clauses:
Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby have no-move clauses.
Phil Kessel and Kris Letang have a modified no-trade and no-move clause.
Patric Hornqvist has a modified no-trade clause.

San Jose Sharks
Cap space: $26.2 million
Could the Sharks put together a good enough package to land Nash?
This is it, San Jose. With Joe Thornton on his last legs (and on the shelf), and Joe Pavelski and Brent Burns in their 30s, the Sharks have one last shot. They might as well put everything together to land the best player on the market.
Clauses:
Logan Couture, Joe Pavelski, Joel Ward, Jannik Hansen and Brent Burns have modified no-trade clauses.
Joe Thornton has a no-move clause.
Marc-Edouard Vlasic has a no-trade clause.

St. Louis Blues
Cap space: $2.5 million
Could Pacioretty be the scorer to take the Blues deep into the playoffs?
The Blues are still having the same problem they have had for a while: They don't appear to be offensively dangerous enough to get past the first or second round. St. Louis is middle of the pack in even-strength scoring rate, but that could change with the addition of a big-time point producer.
Clauses:
Paul Stastny, Alexander Steen, Alex Pietrangelo and Jay Bouwmeester have no-trade clauses.
Patrik Berglund has a no-move clause.

Tampa Bay Lightning
Cap space: $8.9 million
Does GM Steve Yzerman have a surprising deal up his sleeve?
The Lightning are currently the NHL's best team, but that doesn't mean they are a lock to appear in the Stanley Cup final with teams like Boston and Pittsburgh lurking. Tampa Bay has been aggressive in the trade market in the past. It could chase Ottawa's Karlsson or some of the biggest rental names on the market like Nash or Green to beef up its chances.
Clauses:
Ryan Callahan has a no-move clause.
Alex Killorn and Chris Kunitz have no-trade clauses.

Toronto Maple Leafs
Cap space: $4.7 million
Is Tyler Bozak on the block?
The veteran center is playing a career-low 15:24 per game under coach Mike Babcock, putting him on the table for a potential deal. Toronto needs to add a defenseman. With a number of teams likely to be interested in Bozak, we could see an old fashioned hockey trade in Ontario.
Clauses:
Patrick Marleau has a no-move clause.
James van Riemsdyk, Tyler Bozak and Ron Hainsey have modified no-move clauses.

Vancouver Canucks
Cap space: $2.5 million
Will someone overpay for Erik Gudbranson?
The Canucks should get good return for Vanek, but it's unclear whether Gudbranson will pull in any quality picks or prospects. He's a defenseman of an older era in hockey, but there are still GMs out there who overvalue size and toughness.
Clauses:
Henrik Sedin, Daniel Sedin and Loui Eriksson have no-move clauses.
Brandon Sutter and Alexander Edler have no-trade clauses.
Chris Tanev has a limited no-trade clause.

Vegas Golden Knights
Cap space: $37.8 million
Would Vegas spend all of its assets to land Karlsson or Ekman-Larsson?
With tons of draft picks and three first-round picks in 2017, the Golden Knights are one of the few teams that could put together an impressive enough package to get Karlsson or Ekman-Larsson. It would be a way of going all-in this year and setting themselves up for the future, assuming a long-term extension could be worked out. They have the cap space to do it.
Clauses:
James Neal and David Perron have modified no-trade clauses.
Marc-Andre Fleury and David Clarkson (IR) have modified no-trade and no-move clauses.

Washington Capitals
Cap space: $1.9 million
Can the Capitals find a game-changing defenseman?
Every year that Alex Ovechkin is still at the top of his game is a go-for-it year for the Capitals. They may be at the top of the division, but their underlying numbers are also impressive. Adding another defenseman could bring the Caps closer to teams like the Bruins and Lightning.
Clauses:
Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom, T.J. Oshie, Matt Niskanen and Braden Holtby have modified no-trade clauses.

Winnipeg Jets
Cap space: $25.1 million
Would adding Zuccarello give the Jets the best forward group in the NHL?
It took awhile, but Winnipeg has finally hit its stride after years of drafting highly-skilled players. They are getting good goaltending from Connor Hellebuyck and have solidified their defense corps. One more proven veteran scorer -- especially one with playoff experience -- could help the Jets make noise in the playoffs.
Clauses:
Blake Wheeler, Bryan Little, Mathieu Perreault and Dmitry Kulikov have modified no-trade clauses.
Dustin Byfuglien and Toby Enstrom have no-move clauses.
