The Toronto Maple Leafs are getting real production from a winger making just $1.35 million and now have to decide whether that value is worth paying for long term. At 29 and trending toward unrestricted free agency on July 1, Bobby McMann has made himself harder to ignore by producing like a top six piece, with 20 goals last season and 14 goals already this year while flashing the speed and edge that popped when he got a look higher in the lineup.
Keep Bobby McMann and pay the new pri...

By going 8-0-2 in their last 10 games, the Toronto Maple Leafs have finally moved back into a playoff spot. This is a playoff team which had a rough start and needed some health. While the health hasn't exactly come back, a lot of players are contributing to the success. As it has been since the summer, the Maple Leafs need additions, even more so now that there is some open cap space and certain players that have shown they are disposable. Toronto hasn't been silent though. There have been at...

The idea of the Vancouver Canucks trading Elias Pettersson once felt untouchable, especially following his eight-year contract extension, which he is just in the second year of. That’s no longer the case. According to The Province’s Patrick Johnston , it would be “not impossible” for the Canucks to move their top center as the organization leans deeper into a true reset. Calls have come in, interest exists, and while nothing appears imminent, the fact Pettersson’s name is even circulating spea...

The Colorado Avalanche dropped the third game of their current seven-game home stand to the Toronto Maple Leafs, by a final score of 4-3 in overtime. Colorado’s power play, once again, failed to capitalize in a late game opportunity to seal a victory. Instead, the squad lost their third in the last five games. First […]

As we get closer to the Olympic break, it seems like there are going to be two stories to follow in the NHL: is the arena ready in Milan yet? and who’s getting traded before the fifth of February?
There was a flurry of action around the NHL on Monday. The biggest headline grabbing news was a surprise coaching change. But there were a couple notable contracts signed, a former Blackhawks prospect got called up and a veteran netminder might be done for the year.

Team Canada was not an easy team to make for the 2026 Olympics. There were many deserving players left off the team, but some may get the chance to go if injuries or something else happens at the wrong time. Right now, Bo Horvat and Tom Wilson are injured, while Devon Toews will choose being at the birth of his child over playing in the Olympics. 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...

Jake DeBrusk's disappointing season has landed him on the rumor mill of late. He was a healthy scratch for the Vancouver Canucks in late December. And while things have turned around a bit for him since then, the same can't be said for the team, however. DeBrusk has three goals and five points in the last five games, but the Canucks' losing streak was extended to six games over the weekend with a dreadful 5-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs , and they are now dead last in the NHL. ...

He was a healthy scratch on Sunday and we heard that his agent admitted the player might be willing to waive his no-trade for some of the teams not on his 10-team trade list. The latest intel emerging on this Monday morning is that there are three teams now considered "serious suitors" with three other teams in the mix as well, per James Murphy in rg.org.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have been living on the trade deadline carousel for years, but The Athletic’s Jonas Siegel made it pretty clear this time that every blue-line “fix” comes with a price tag that could sting in very different ways. With injuries piling up again and Chris Tanev’s status looming large, Toronto’s need for a right-shot defender feels obvious.

The Flyers opened this past week with a 5-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks in a game that had no shortage of drama. Trevor Zegras stole the spotlight in the much-anticipated matchup, scoring twice, and the Flyers would go on to pull away on the scoreboard. The win, however, came at a cost, as Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale were both forced out after being on the receiving end of questionable hits, putting a damper on an otherwise fun night of hockey.
Next came the Toronto Maple Leafs and Scot...

The team is seemingly on the verge of selling some assets, starting with pending unrestricted free agent Kiefer Sherwood. But the gritty, hard-nosed forward is letting his current teammates have it before his impending exit. It's the NHL… F-----g bring it every night.
