In our preview today, we speculated that the Tampa Bay Lightning might go with an 11/7 line-up if Big Jack Finley isn’t able to suit up today. While that is still a possibility, the Lightning gave themselves another option as they recalled forward Jakob Pelletier from Syracuse prior to their game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The free agent signing was recalled earlier this year and made his Lightning debut on November 15. He’s been one of the Crunch’s best players this season, loggi...

The Columbus Blue Jackets were the first team to change head coaches this season and won't be the last. There are plenty of teams with higher expectations that are just not meeting them for one reason or another. In some cases, it might not just be on the head coach, but that's all the GM can do to get the team going. So here's a look at five NHL teams that could make a head coaching change next. Winnipeg Jets The Winnipeg Jets just had a four-game win streak snapped, but that doesn't fix thei...

Now a Pittsburgh Penguins winger after pushing for a fresh start, Egor Chinakhov was asked about the Columbus Blue Jackets firing Dean Evason, the coach tied to the misunderstandings that helped send Chinakhov out of town.

NHL teams sure do love to recycle coaches. Sure, you can always make the case for somebody with a fresh set of eyes and a different, maybe even more modern approach. But when a GM is choosing the hire that could make or break his team’s chances, the temptation to go with an experienced hand who’s been around the league will always be there. We saw that this week in Columbus, where the Blue Jackets moved on from Dean Evason . They replaced him with 71-year-old veteran Rick Bowness , who’s been ...

Pierre LeBrun said, "15 players have been told that they're on the reserve list. The forwards...some pretty obvious names: Sam Bennett, Connor Bedard...
