The team placed Will Smith and Philipp Kurashev on injured reserve earlier this week because of injuries they suffered during Saturday’s game in Pittsburgh.

If some accounts around the league are correct, it feels like Stuart Skinner's stay in Pittsburgh could be a short one. Skinner was acquired by the Penguins along with defenseman Brett Kulak from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Tristan Jarry. But that still leaves the Pens with four viable goaltenders in the system. Skinner, with an expiring $2.6 million cap hit, could be used by the Penguins to acquire another young asset. Insider Frank Seravalli explains , on the Panthers Insider p...

December can be a boring month in the NHL. Opening night optimism is a faded memory, the deadline is still months away, the playoff picture is jumbled, and not much is happening. And then, every once in a while, we get a day like Friday. We got one of the biggest midseason blockbusters in years, with the Quinn Hughes trade to Minnesota . We got the long-awaited Oilers goalie trade, with Tristan Jarry coming over from the Penguins . Oh, and before those two deals dropped, we also found out that...

The Habs went 2-1-1 during the second week of December, and sit third in the Atlantic Division with a record of 17-11-4. It started with another full-on embarrassment at home, a 6-1 beatdown courtesy of the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday. The Habs then took to the road, with Jacob Fowler getting his first NHL regular-season start against the Pittsburgh Penguins after the Habs hit the organizational panic button – calling up Fowler, Adam Engström and Owen Beck.

The San Jose Sharks did something today that no other Sharks team has ever done. Down 5-1 in the third period, the team overcame a four-goal deficit to not just tie the game, but win it, something that no other Sharks team in the history of the franchise has done. Of course, that’s in part because the stacked teams of the past never would have gotten themselves into such a predicament in the first place, but we take our wins where we can get them. The Sharks beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-5 in...
