NHL Trade Rumors: Surprising Team Emerging In Dougie Hamilton Trade Talks

The New Jersey Devils are expected to trade defenceman Dougie Hamilton before Friday's trade deadline and while the Carolina Hurricanes, Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs have been heavily linked the past few weeks, it turns out there's a new team that could surprise, and come out on top. Keep an eye on the Pittsburgh Penguins. Kyle Dubas long coveted Hamilton while he was running the Maple Leafs, and the idea to buy low on Hamilton at the moment is intriguing Dubas a lot. The Penguins c...

Auston Matthews Calls Maple Leafs 'Embarrassing'

  The Toronto Maple Leafs are a mess and their captain Auston Matthews isn't shying away from it. Matthews spoke to reporters after the team's loss to the rival Ottawa Senators Saturday night, and called out his team for their pride in their play.  I thought we started better. We just kind of lost it there. Just really disconnected throughout all three zones. Just bad. Just fairly embarrassing, to be honest with you. We need to have more pride in our play, no matter where we’re at, n...

Flyers may be wasting Dan Vladar’s good goaltending

The Flyers ended last season with an .879 team save percentage. This was nearly 10 points below the San Jose Sharks — a team who was openly tanking — for the worst team save percentage in the NHL. It’s comfortably the worst mark since the turn of the century, though this year’s Ottawa Senators (.873) are giving it a real run. The front office then came to the logical conclusion that the roster simply can’t be evaluated correctly if they’re spending their time fishing the puck out of their own ...

Senators Searching For Upgrades In Questionable Spot

The Ottawa Senators aren't looking to sell at the trade deadline, but rather buy, give themselves a chance at the playoffs as they sit six points out with 25 games to go, and build for success not only this season, but next. That won't be easy and the team will have to be looking at bringing in players with some term, but it can be done, especially if some of the UFAs are used to go the other way. Bruce Garrioch said, "The Senators have also been searching for help up front. You have to think ...

Senators Going Into Trade Deadline As Buyers

The Ottawa Senators have not had the season they had hoped and goaltending/team defense has not been up to par, but they aren't out of it just yet and could make a push. Bruce Garrioch said, "Staios wants to be a buyer. If the Senators get strong goaltending down the stretch, then there is little doubt that they can make a push. Selling off assets for draft picks doesn't make sense for this group." The 20 game injury to Brady Tkachuk didn't help the team, but they made it through and are six p...

NHL Rumors: Senators Still Buying At Trade Deadline

The Ottawa Senators could have easily leaned into caution ahead of the roster freeze, but the latest word around the league is they are still trying to buy, coming out of the Olympic break.  Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Citizen reported that general manager Steve Staios would prefer to add rather than subtract once the Olympic break ends, even after Ottawa chose the status quo before the freeze.  The target list is not bargain bin depth either, with league executives telling Garrioch...

Will the Wild and Ottawa Senators Be Trade Partners Again?

A renewed trade connection between the Minnesota Wild and Ottawa Senators makes real sense in 2026, especially around a framework that sends Jesper Wallstedt to Ottawa and brings a center like Dylan Cozens to Minnesota. Minnesota has shifted from Wallstedt is the goalie of the future to we’re...

Missed opportunities marred Flyers’ final game before Olympic break

The Flyers, riding high after snapping their losing streak with a big win over the Capitals on Tuesday, went into their final game before the break with a significant challenge on their hands — keeping their positive momentum rolling now that they finally had it. And while there were pieces in the matchup which worked in their favor, between a similarly matchup Senators team broadly, but more precisely one starting a 37-year old James Reimer only a handful of games into his stint with Ottawa a...

3 Flyers who probably don’t want an Olympic break

The Flyers finished their pre-Olympic gauntlet Thursday night with a 2-1 overtime loss against the Ottawa Senators. The Flyers capped off this stretch of 56 games with a record of 25-20-11. And while some players we mentioned previously well more than happy to see the Olympic break now for a few weeks, there are a few other players who maybe hate the fact they’re now having some down time. It’s not every Flyer, but we take a look at three Flyers who are playing quite well of late, and would ju...
