Game Preview
The Winnipeg Jets are in the throes of an ugly eight-game losing streak, plunging them to the very bottom of the Western Conference standings. This, from a team that won the Presidents' Trophy last season with the best record in the NHL. But if they're not ready to throw in the towel, there are some things the Jets could look to fix. Like the desperate need for some scoring—any kind of scoring—outside of their top line. The Edmonton Oilers happen to have a guy like that who has fallen ou...
Death, taxes and the Edmonton Oilers struggling in matinee games. The Oilers welcomed the Philadelphia Flyers to Rogers Place on Saturday afternoon for Game 42, officially kicking off the second half of their season. But much like the Oilers started the first half, they were flat, falling 5-2. Matinees haven’t been kind to the Oilers…
First Period The New Jersey Devils and Utah Mammoth got off to a largely slow start in Newark. Jacob Markstrom almost had to deal with a breakaway a couple minutes in after Jonas Siegenthaler fell in the neutral zone, but Daniil But lost the puck on the attempt, giving Markstrom an easier save. A bit […]
The Blake Coleman rumors have been ramping up around the National Hockey League for several weeks now. While the Calgary Flames have cooled down some of the trade talk with a nice run to get back to .500 and within striking distance of a Wild Card spot, hockey insiders are still speculating on where some of their top trade candidates could be headed. And while Nazem Kadri and Rasmus Andersson get most of the ink, Coleman is quite the wanted man in trade circles, coming with a much less onerous...

Welcome to Saturday night, folks! We’ve got our first Bruins game of the calendar year. Time to start fresh and all of that good stuff…except maybe not, as it’d be nice to see the B’s replicate their last performance of 2025. The Canucks are not a good hockey team, so this game should be there […]
Well, well, well. If it isn’t 2026 rolling round the corner like an abandoned shopping trolley. 2025 was a tumultuous year for our beloved club (see latest pod episode), but this new year brings with it a blanket of fresh hope and optimism. In practical terms, it has also bought an arctic blast to our […]
First things first: The Buffalo Sabres aren't trading anyone coming off the highs of their just completed 10-game winning streak. But... There's a big piece of internal business that does need to get done by new GM Jarmo Kekalainen, or there could be a big change by the trade deadline. Alex Tuch's pending unrestricted free agency is still hanging over the team, and while it hasn't affected them—or him—recently, if the two sides can't agree on an extension, a trade is certainly in the off...

Denver Barkey is on the board.
The Philadelphia Flyers rookie has provided some energy and solid two-way play in his short time in the NHL, but he only had two assists — both recorded in his debut at Madison Square Garden — to show for it. That changed on Saturday afternoon in Edmonton.
After some early pressure by the Oilers, it was Barkey who settled things down and opened the scoring in Edmonton.
The 20-year-old winger started the breakout in his own end and dashed down the c...
