Jack Hughes’s hat trick on Saturday seemed long overdue. American hero Hughes scored four goals in the Olympics, including the famous one that secured a gold medal. However, he entered Saturday’s game with just a single goal in his last 23 games. It is worth noting that Hughes accrued 19 assists over that 23-game stretch [...]
The trade deadline has now come and gone. You can view trades both big and small on the Trade Deadline Tracker, including links to Fantasy Takes and Forum posts.

The men’s Olympic hockey gold medal matchup will consist of the two teams that many hockey fans both expected and wanted. You’ll need to get up early (8 a.m. ET/5 a.m. PT) on Sunday to watch Canada and the United States face off, as the Olympic closing ceremonies are set to run later that day. [...]

Perhaps because a few days’ worth of games have been lost with the break. Still, a few prominent players have been re-ranked. The stat categories for [...]
The injury update for Kevin Fiala was quick and about what was expected. Fiala underwent surgery on Saturday and will miss the rest of the NHL season on top of the Olympic tournament.
