The seismic Quinn Hughes blockbuster is having ripple effects around the league on the trade market. Pierre LeBrun said on TSN's Insider Trading that teams in need of a defenseman are more desperate now, and the next most sought-after blueliner on the trade market, Rasmus Andersson, is getting even more attention. What I am hearing is that the Calgary Flames suddenly got more calls on Rasmus Andersson after the Quinn Hughes trade. That’s not surprising. Th...

The Islanders suffered a regulation loss in Detroit last night through some untimely penalties and failure to stop Alex freaking DeBrincat on the ensuing power plays. They had a 1-0 lead entering the third, got the equalizer (from Scott Mayfield!?) after falling behind 2-1, but Mayfield took a late penalty and the Wings cashed in […]
All at once, this was a vital two points, a very fitting final four minutes to the Joe Bowen tribute game, and a not-at-all-reassuring performance by the Maple Leafs overall. This was the actual reality of this performance for the vast majority of the game: Irrelevant if they come back in this game, too. That […]

The Chicago Blackhawks squandered a two-goal lead, allowing three unanswered goals in the final 10 minutes — including two of them just eight seconds apart — to fall 3–2 to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday in Canada.
The Blackhawks opened the scoring midway through the first period. After Dominic Toninato won a faceoff, Wyatt Kaiser picked up the puck, skated in, and beat Joseph Woll with a slick wrister from the high slot to give the Blackhawks a 1–0 lead.

Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks, which improved the Maple Leafs’ record to 15-12-5. On the team’s start to the game: Actually, the first part of the first period wasn’t a terrible start. It was actually a good start to the game. We gave up a shorthanded […]

I’m not sure about these defence pairings Martin St-Louis has come up with, but I suppose we’ll have to see how they do.
First period
Jayden Struble gets caught up ice on the first shift, and Fowler has already had to face one transition rush.
Cole Caufield is given about one-third of the offensive zone all to himself, but Dan Vladar saves the situation.
The checking is tight right now. It’s like watching five fencing matches taking place at once.
Adam Engström is ...

With Joseph Woll back in the net and Connor Bedard out for Chicago, this is a game the Maple Leafs really need to win — for the response after the Edmonton loss, for the points in the standings, and for Joe Bowen on his special night (7:00 p.m. EST, TSN4). Game Day Quotes Max Domi […]

The Chicago Blackhawks travel north to Toronto as the Blackhawks and Maple Leafs each try to put an end to a two-game losing skid.
The Leafs’ season to date has been defined by inconsistency and unmet expectations: instead of sitting comfortably in the Atlantic mix, they find themselves a handful of spots outside the playoff picture, stuck in the muddled middle of the Eastern Conference. The wins haven’t come in bunches, defensive lapses have been a recurring issue, and the overall produc...

It's been a couple of weeks since my last prospect report. I was laid off from my job at the beginning of the month and let's just say my mind was not in a great place even before that. I've been doing enough prospect
But no Connor this time.
On a night built for emotion with Kreider and Trouba's return to MSG, the Rangers’ special teams spiral stole the spotlight and sank them against Anaheim.
After Monday’s practice, head coach Craig Berube discussed the recent performance of his captain and the top line, moving William Nylander onto Auston Matthews’ right wing, the organization honouring Joe Bowen on Tuesday night, and the status of Chris Tanev and Joseph Woll in their progress towards a return. Where is Auston Matthews’ game in […]

After an impressive 6-3 victory against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Tristan Jarry’s debut on Saturday, the Edmonton Oilers put forward a listless effort on Sunday, losing 4-1 to the Montréal Canadiens. Nobody said it was easy to come out of a back-to-back on the road with four points, but this weekend perfectly summarizes what…
The Edmonton Oilers kicked off their five-game road trip with a decisive win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday, and they were looking to keep the good times rolling in their rematch with the Montreal Canadiens. The Habs were rattled by how things went when these teams matched up back in October, and I was…
Tristan Jarry’s first game in an Edmonton Oilers jersey was a solid yet unspectacular. He made some great stops, perhaps none better than his breakaway save on Maple Leafs forward John Tavares, but a garbage-time goal by Toronto pushed his save percentage below .900 on the night. Still, he gave the team a chance to…
Even with the Toronto Maple Leafs ' renewed struggles, and a desperate search for top-six help, first-year Leaf Matias Maccelli still cannot find his way back into the lineup. He has been a healthy scratch for seven consecutive games after Saturday night, and has just not recaptured the playmaking form that made him a 57-point man two seasons ago. The 5'11" forward is just not a Craig Berube favorite, as Maccelli has posted just nine points in 22 games, with only three hits. With th...
Tristan Jarry posted a .893 save percentage in a 6-3 win over Toronto on Saturday night. His Oilers debut went well — 25 saves on 28 shots, the team scored six goals, and Edmonton extended their point streak to five games. Now comes the question: Does he start again in Montreal? The Oilers are on…
Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 6-3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers, which dropped the Maple Leafs’ record to 14-12-5. On where the game got away from the team: 30 seconds to go in the second period, we throw a puck blindly into the slot. First of all, they should’ve changed, but they […]
