After six days post-July 1st, we are going to look at players that teams in the West added or lost from their roster. We are going to go back until the last few weeks of June to include any trades. Today we are going to review Anaheim, Calgary, Chicago, Colorado, Dallas, Edmonton, Los Angeles and [...]
With the 2025 entry draft taking place this past Friday and Saturday, I thought we could look back at how Western Teams have fared from 2009 through 2024. I chose 2009 as the cutoff, as there are still quite a few players from that draft year playing significant roles on teams today. We are going [...]
We reviewed the top free agents available at a similar time last year, as listed here and here. I broke them down by forwards and defenders, by the type of contract each player might receive and the value each player had. As is the case with most free agents signed on July 1st, teams overpaid. [...]
This week, we will examine each team in the Western Conference and review some interesting (to me) statistical lines from the last 30 or so games of the regular season. Some of these may carry forward into 2025-26, or not. Anaheim Ducks Mason McTavish (F) - In his last 31 games, he had 10 goals [...]
We will examine every team in the Western Conference and highlight players who are on favourable contracts to the team. We won’t include players on entry-level deals or those that have just expired. Some of these contracts are for the next five or six years, so there are no guarantees, but at the moment, they [...]
This week, we are going to look at players from each Western roster and see who is not earning their contract. We are going to avoid piling on players who were injured for much of the season, so we will draw the line at 50 GP in 2024-25. Depending on how much term these players [...]
This week, we will examine Dallas, Edmonton, Vegas, and Winnipeg, looking at the players who will become free agents on July 1st or at the end of 2025-26. We had looked at part one and part two in the weeks prior. We will also see how much salary cap space each team has with the [...]
This is part two of our series covering players set to become free agents on July 1st or at the end of 2025-26. Check out part one here. This week, we are going to look at Nashville, San Jose, Seattle, St. Louis, Utah and Vancouver. We will also see how much salary cap space each [...]
This week, I’m going to look at teams in the Western Conference and review players set to become free agents on July 1st or at the end of 2025-26. We will also see how much cap space each team has with the salary cap increasing to $95.5 million in 2025-26. We will attempt to look [...]
This week, I’m going to look back at some of my pre-season rookie candidates from a Wild West article in early October 2024. I only included rookies from Western teams, breaking down the rookies into dark horses and front-runners. Dark Horses: Calle Clang - Anaheim Ducks (G) - (0-0-0-0-0) I thought Clang might get a [...]
