I thought the queue was the trade call, and you have until the deadline to get into queue. I think it was the canucks that did a behind the scenes thing on it. Essentially nhl confirms with both parties the details of the trade and ensures any additional waivers or documents that are needed are there (I.e. ntc waiver).
