The Blackhawks held a fantastic celebration of the three Stanley Cup champions on Saturday night. The game was disappointing, but the pregame was exceptional. The collection of former players who were part of the 2010, 2013 and 2015 championship Blackhawks rosters who were able to attend was impressive. And the moment Pat Foley invited them to raise the Cup on home ice one more time was stirring.
Appropriately, it was Brent Seabrook who raised it above his head. Seabrook was the quiet lea...

When the Detroit Tigers traded left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin to the Texas Rangers at the trade deadline in 2024, it was never likely to be an impactful deal. The Tigers got sidearmer Chase Lee in the deal, but it was the second piece, right-handed starter Joseph Montalvo, who was expected to be the modest centerpiece. […]

The Nashville Predators have gotten themselves into the playoff race with better play in the latter half of the first half of the season, but this is still a team that needs some changes. There doesn't appear to be a change in emotion from Jonathan Marchessault and his willingness to be traded, but Ryan O'Reilly and Steven Stamkos like it much more in Nashville and with their situation. Nick Kypreos said, "Jonathan Marchessault is the player to watch here and probably more of a target for othe...

The Blackhawks los t again last night. The Bruins came in playing really well, and controlled most of the game even though the Hawks took a 2-0 lead in the first period.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are playing well, but they are caught competing in a very tough race for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Nevertheless, they are eight games above .500, and if they keep up the pace they're on or even just close to it, they will eventually separate and gain the upper hand on some of the teams around them. With that being said, the Maple Leafs are dealing with injuries to the defense in which they will have to address. This isn't a season in which the team can a...
