Throughout the season, it’s been a three-man race as to who has been the guy the Flyers have gone to all season. For most of the year it was Trevor Zegras. But he’s slowed down a bit on his points pace. Winger Travis Konecny has picked up the slack and now leads the team in points, yet even he’s had some games and moments that he’d like to have back. The one guy that has managed to be even keel most of the way — and been one of the brightest and biggest lights thus far — is goaltender Dan Vlad...
The Winnipeg Jets have returned home from a 4 game road trip that saw the franchise continue to pick up points on a regular basis, as they went 2-1-1 to grab 5 of the available 8 points. Yet, despite going 7-3-3 since January 9th ( getting 17 of the available 26 pts ), the True Northers have only managed to close the gap on the Western Conference’s last wildcard spot by 2 points ( were down 11 pts, but it is now only 9 ). At that pace, the Jets would need 65 more games in the regular season to...

Today we are looking at second baseman Marcus Semien. Former second baseman Marcus Semien, I guess […]
When the Minnesota Wild swung a trade for Quinn Hughes, the NHL world immediately drooled at the possibility of him and superstar Kirill Kaprizov elevating each other's games. Hughes did a lot of heavy lifting for the Vancouver Canucks, while Kaprizov was the main offensive engine in Minnesota. Now...
The Edmonton Oilers wrapped up their longest homestand of the season on Tuesday with a 5-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, closing the door on an eight-game stretch that offered far more uncertainty than clarity. The result, much like the homestand itself, felt like a missed chance. Another mid-pack opponent arriving in Edmonton on…
The Philadelphia Flyers earned a feel-good 4-2 win over the Washington Capitals that helped them wash away a whole lot of their ongoing issues. Sure, it doesn’t help that they suffered a brutal stretch that almost cemented them as a non-playoff team, but Tuesday night’s win was perfectly timed after the messy drama between head coach Rick Tocchet and winger Matvei Michkov spilled into the national spotlight.
The main gripe surrounding this drama was the lack of minutes given to Michkov an...
They aren’t dead yet. The Maple Leafs will head into the Olympic break on a three-game winning streak and five points out of a playoff spot. To me, it’s still not enough to consider changing course on selling before the deadline, but that’s a different story. For now, let’s discuss a nice Leaf effort to […]

We’re about to hit a whole bunch of important Olympic milestones. The NHL break starts tomorrow night. The first preliminary round games are next Wednesday. The medal round starts two weeks from tomorrow. Construction on the arena should be finished shortly after that. The point is, this happening. And that’s big, because as every hockey fan knows, the NHL hasn’t been to an Olympics since 2014. That’s 12 years ago, which is a long wait for fans. But it’s also a big gap for the players – big en...
Oilers, Leafs. Leafs, Oilers. They’re games that always bring a big, split, noisy crowd to Rogers Place, and it was no different Tuesday night, with competing chants all three periods. The energy was nothing short of fantastic, and it’s a shame the Leafs are so far from being a Stanley Cup contender, because an all-Canadian…

The Toronto Maple Leafs are drifting closer to seller territory, and one name consistently coming up in league circles is Bobby McMann. With Toronto sitting outside the playoff picture and facing a shallow sellers’ market, McMann has quietly become one of the most appealing deadline pieces available. His combination of speed, versatility, and a bargain $1.35 million cap hit puts general manager Brad Treliving in a position of leverage as contenders search for uncomplicated scoring ...

With the Olympic break about to slam the door on roster movement, the Edmonton Oilers and Toronto Maple Leafs are suddenly getting tied together in a surprising place: Brandon Carlo . On Elliotte Friedman ’s 32 Thoughts , the word is Edmonton may have at least explored Carlo’s availability, even if the league feedback sounds split between “yeah, I heard that too” and “no chance,” according to Friedman.
Why Carlo is popping up in Edmonton’s orbit
