Texas Rangers lineup for March 13, 2026
Texas Rangers lineup for March 13, 2026 against the Colorado Rockies. Texas heads to Scottsdale to take on the Rockies of Colorado. Sam Haggerty is playing second base and Josh Smith is at third, as Josh Jung continues to be unavailable. Jacob Latz is starting. The lineup: Nimmo — RF Langford — CF Seager — […]
Adding McCarron and Foligno Changed the Wild's Identity
The Minnesota Wild’s deadline swing for Michael McCarron and Nick Foligno is already reshaping their identity down the middle and along the walls. McCarron and Foligno give John Hynes exactly the kind of heavy, detail-driven hockey this group has been missing. When Bill Guerin traded a 2028 se...
Looking at where the Tristan Jarry trade ranks among the worst Oilers deals
It hasn’t even been three months yet, but the Tristan Jarry trade is already starting to look like it could end up being one of the worst in Edmonton Oilers history. That may be a bit of a hot take, but Jarry hasn’t performed nearly as well as one would’ve hoped. Over the 13 games…
Analyzing the Panthers needs after the start of free agency
Free agency technically never ends, but it generally seems like about 90% of the most consequential acquisitions are made in the first few days. We’ve past that point, and the pace of deals has decreased from pouring in to a slight trickle. The Carolina Panthers have been busy, re-signing a slew of special teams and […]
Emil Andrae impresses in return to Flyers lineup
After two games off, Flyers defenseman Emil Andrae was slid back into the lineup last night in Minnesota, and stepped up quite quickly and decisively as a driver in the success that the team found against a tough Wild opponent. Through much of these last couple of months, Andrae’s usage has been, in a word, sparing — with an extended sidelining beginning in the end of January which stretched to the other side of the Olympic break, it was a full month between games for him, and so far he’s...
What to do with Anthony Mantha after this season
If we are being honest with ourselves, and if the Pittsburgh Penguins are being honest with themselves, forward Anthony Mantha was never supposed to be on the team at this point in the 2025-26 season. The plan with him was pretty obvious from the start. At least it seemed to be obvious. That is what […]
Lightning acquire defenseman Ian Mitchell for Wojciech Stachowiak and Michael Milne
The Tampa Bay Lightning aren’t going to let something as trivial as a trade deadline stop them from improving their franchise. While they were taking on the Detroit Red Wings on the ice last night, they were also making a deal with their opponents. Tampa Bay acquired defenseman Ian Mitchell from the Red Wings in exchange for forwards Michael Milne and Wojciech Stachowiak. Yes, the NHL trade deadline has passed, but the AHL trade deadline rolls on until 3:00 PM today. With all three player...
Joe's Reaction of the Week: Maybe It Was Panarin's Fault After All
Lafrenière is on a heater, Perreault is pulling off highlight-reel plays, and suddenly we're left wonder if these two are better off without Panarin.
MHH Roundtable: Is the Avalanche defense improved enough?
After a wild and monumental trade deadline which saw the return of Nazem Kadri, the Colorado Avalanche have their roster for the remainder of the 2025-26 season in hopes that it will end with a Stanley Cup. Here we unpack where this team stands heading into the stretch run of the regular season. What are […]
The Path Forward: Step 2, Find a New Coaching Staff (Maybe)
The birds are chirping, my snow is melting, the glow from the Olympics is wearing off and it’s back to the Devils playoff push. (taps ear: I’m getting some information here… Oh.. oh no.. my producer is telling me we are one of the worst teams in the league). They needed to go roughly 20-5 […]
Friday morning Rangers things
Good morning, LSB. Evan Grant has observations from yesterday’s game in which Jack Leiter continued to tinker. Kennedi Landry writes about World Series hero Josh Sborz battling for a roster spot. Jeff Wilson talks camp and the season ahead with Rangers GM Ross Fenstermaker. Elsewhere Grant writes that the clock is ticking on Josh Jung’s […]
Rangers vs. Jets: What is Going On?
The Rangers may be ruining the tank, but the kids are giving fans something to watch. From Edstrom’s breakout moment to Lafrenière’s surge, the young core is starting to show signs of life.
New Lions OL Cade Mays ‘on the rise’ at center
Before entering the NFL, Cade Mays’ entire experience at center amounted to 46 emergency snaps as a 20-year-old at Tennessee. When drafted by the Carolina Panthers three years later in the sixth round, center didn’t appear to be in his future. That offseason, the Panthers had signed both Austin Corbett and Bradley Bozeman in free […]
NHL Rumors: Panthers Working On Extensions for Two Players
The Florida Panthers did not make the splash many expected at the trade deadline entering the season. Instead of moving pending unrestricted free agents, Florida kept both Sergei Bobrovsky and A.J. Greer , with TSN's Pierre LeBrun indicating the club is now working on extensions for both players. Panthers general manager Bill Zito made the team’s stance clear after the deadline, calling Bobrovsky “part of our franchise” and “part of our core,” while saying Florida wants to keep him. Se...
Oilers down and out early, tempers erupt in Dallas, and another rough night for Tristan Jarry
The Edmonton Oilers kicked off their road trip with two massive wins in Vegas and Colorado, but the job didn’t get any easier for round three when the boys faced the Dallas Stars. But while the Oilers brought their best for the first two games of the trip, the same could not be said about…

Maple Leafs Willing to Consider William Nylander Trade
The Toronto Maple Leafs may be approaching a crossroads that few expected just a year ago. Amid a disastrous 2025–26 season and growing frustration inside the organization, reports suggest the team was at least willing to consider trade conversations involving William Nylander before the deadline. The idea alone would have been unthinkable maybe even a year ago, but as losses pile up and the standings worsen, even Toronto’s core stars may no longer be viewed as untouchable. Willi...

2025-26 NHL Minor Penalty Database Analysis
Hey there! It’s been a bit, but I promise I’ve got something special for you. With some elbow grease and help from Game Over Network contributor Jordan Hachey, we have tracked minor penalties and power plays for the entirety of the NHL up to the Olympic break, meaning we have a database with over 10,000 datapoints to work with and learn some stuff. For this column, we’re going to be looking at league-wide trends, then looking at how much variance there is across the league. We’re not...

Brian Answers: Free Agency was… fun?!
Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Answers, part two of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone!

So, I got to go through all of your questions, from weeks […]
Morning Skate: Bait
You can’t win ‘em all, right? The Bruins gave the idea of never losing at home again a pretty good effort, but they fell to the Sharks at TD Garden last night for their first home loss since December. The Sharks jumped out to a 4-0 lead before the Bruins attempted to make a game […]
Sams power Panthers to 2-1 overtime win over Columbus
Sam Reinhart scored the deciding goal 2:20 into overtime as the Florida Panthers extended its winning streak to three games with a hard-fought 2-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets at Amerant Bank Arena. After a ridiculously good first period from Sergei Bobrovsky (14 saves) kept the outplayed Panthers even, the Blue Jackets finally broke through 13:01 into the second when Adam Fantilli took a lead pass from Mason Marchment and wired a wrister home from the right circle. The Cats op...
