As opposed to some sort of other trade I guess? Does it just mean no draft picks? Sorry probably a stupid question but not as convinced the question is as stupid as the expression.

I would consider a hockey trade one that is built around NHL talent rather than built around picks and prospects. That's not to say picks and prospects can't be in a hockey trade, but they would be a sweetener, rather than the main course.
The rumored Brodie/Kadri trade would have been a good example of a hockey trade.
