NHL Trade Rumors: Zach Parise Trade to the Islanders Falls Through /

The NHL trade deadline closed at 3 p.m. ET on Monday, and many teams made moves to bolster their rosters ahead of the playoffs.

The Islanders made a big move by acquiring Jean-Gabriel Pageau from the Senators on Monday morning, according to TSN's Darren Dreger. The team sent a 2020 first-round pick and a 2020 second-rounder to Ottawa in exchange for Pageau, who will become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

New York was also reportedly in serious talks with the Wild to acquire Zach Parise, according to TSN's Frank Seravalli. The veteran left winger figured to play a large part in the Islanders' playoff push down the stretch, but the two sides could not come to an agreement before the 3 p.m. deadline.

The Islanders currently hold the first wild card spot in the Eastern Conference with 21 games to play.
