The Maple Leafs and Devils met on Tuesday evening in Jersey. Toronto came into the contest on a mini-slide, picking up just four points in their last five contests. That slipped them to third in the Atlantic and they were looking to right the ship. Meanwhile, Taylor Hall returned from injury for a floundering Devils [...]
Alex Ovechkin - USA Today Sports Images William Nylander hit the scoresheet for the first time this season. The 22-year-old led the way for the Leafs with two even-strength assists as they beat the Hurricanes 4-1 on Tuesday evening. Nylander continued to skate alongside Nazem Kadri and Patrick Marleau on the team's third [...]
Calgary and Columbus combined for, wait for it, 15 goals on Tuesday night! It's been nearly two calendar years since we've had a 15 goal affair, and this one had some zip on it. The Blue Jackets jumped out to a 3-1 lead to chase David Rittich from the cage. Mike Smith was welcomed [...]
Carolina placed a couple of interesting names on the real-life waiver wire on Thursday. As predicted, Scott Darling, his terrible save percentage and equally ugly contract made it’s way through without a hitch. Valentin Zykov did not. The 23-year-old winger was snatched by the Oilers on Friday morning in a move widely celebrated [...]
Many of us awoke on Tuesday to see that two coaches were relieved of their duties. Mike Yeo in St Louis and Todd McLellan in Edmonton. There will be fantasy fallout from both of these moves, however, it’s the most likely in Edmonton where Ken Hitchcock will be tightening the reigns. I’d [...]
Mike Yeo's time in St. Louis has come to an end. After replacing Ken Hitchcock as the head coach back in 2015-16, it's interesting that he's out of a job today and Hitch takes a new one in Edmonton. Yeo was given a team that was deep in talent but never had a strong [...]
Tuesday morning saw the axe finally fall in Edmonton. It wasn't the complete house-cleaning that many forecasted, but Todd McLellan was shown the door after three years as the bench boss. Enter Ken Hitchcock. Many felt that Hitch had coached his last game in the NHL when he announced his retirement last April. [...]
Patrik Laine. Isaiah Downing / USA Today Sports Images Nine games were on tap Monday evening, and there was no shortage of goals. The Panthers defeated the Senators 7-5 in one of the early affairs. Florida was led by perennial all-star and fantasy stalwart, Juho Lammikko and his four assists. Wait, do [...]
John Klingberg had surgery on his hand on Friday and will be out four weeks. That’s a huge blow to owners as the 26-year-old was clicking along at nearly a 70-point pace. This opens up a massive opportunity for Miro Heiskanen who will eat up those top power play minutes. The 19-year-old is [...]
The NHL Global Series wrapped up on Friday morning in Helsinki. The Jets took the first tilt 4-2 and the Panthers managed to repay the favour a day later with a 4-2 victory or their own. Keith Yandle and Evgeni Dadonov led the way with a goal and an assist each. Both have [...]
