Rambling about the Oilers (ready to take off?); most improved teams so far; and much more … *** The Edmonton Oilers have arrived. You’ll tell me that I say this every year, but that’s not actually the case. In the past I’ve used words like “could” and “should”. This year I’m saying it, and [...]

Fantasy Impact: San Jose Sharks sign winger Mikkel Boedker to a four year contract worth $16 million. The Sharks get: the youngest of the big name players on the market.

Fantasy Impact: Washington Capitals sign winger Brett Connolly to a one-year contract worth $850,000. The Capitals get: the sixth overall pick from 2010 at a very good cap hit.

And are his attitude problems behind him? That's the 5.75 million dollar question. Radulov led the KHL in scoring in three of the last [...]
Fantasy Impact: The Detroit Red Wings have signed center Frans Nielsen to a six-year deal worth $31.5 million ($5.25M per season). The Wings get: an underrated two-way centerman.
