The Los Angeles Kings were hoping to make a real 'hockey trade' for disgruntled veteran center Phillip Danault. They wanted, preferably, another center back in the deal. In the end, they sent Danault to the Montreal Canadiens for a second-round draft pick. But there was an offer on the table from another team of an established young center who's been a viable secondary scorer on multiple occasions. The Kings turned it down. David Pagnotta explained on Daily Faceoff's DFO Rund...

Many around the hockey world were stunned that the Los Angeles Kings would trade the veteran center Phillip Danault for a draft pick, without getting a roster player back in return. Especially considering centers are at a premium on the trade market these days. So why did the Kings rush into such a deal? According to insider Elliotte Friedman , the situation had become so untenable, something had to be done ASAP, and the Montreal Canadiens likely knew they had the Kings over a barrel. It...

The Pittsburgh Penguins snapped a couple of losing streaks on Sunday night with their 4-3 win over the Montreal Canadiens. The most important streak it snapped is the eight-game losing streak they were on. Arguably the more satisfying streak that it snapped was their nine-game shootout losing streak that went all the way back to […]

Watching the Montreal Canadiens this season has so far has been fun, frustrating, and at times infuriating. The most consistent source of frustration has probably been the goaltending the team has received this season, but close behind that has been officiating.
That’s not new, nor is it unique for sports fans, though I do think the NHL’s officiating is significantly worse than most other sports. Talk to any fanbase in the NHL for long enough, and they’ll probably tell you the refs are ou...

Montreal’s week got off to a rocky start after Sunday’s commanding win over the Edmonton Oilers, faltering against the Philadelphia Flyers. After Alexandre Texier opened the scoring just a minute into the game, the Habs went on to allow four straight and lose 4-1, with Jacob Fowler ending up placing the dagger himself after a turnover behind the net.

The Flyers had a difficult week, not due to the caliber of their competition, but because of how the games ultimately played out. Things started well with a 4-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, thanks in part to another quality start from Dan Vladar, which put the Flyers on a five-game point streak. However, the positivity quickly disappeared as the team blew back-to-back games that felt firmly in their control.
Ironically, their first loss of the week came off one of the best starts ...
