The Anaheim Ducks have named Pat Verbeek as their new general manager. He will need to quickly decide whether the Ducks (currently occupying the #3 seed in the Pacific Division) should continue their playoff push or attempt to sell off UFAs-to-be Rickard Rakell, Hampus Lindholm, Josh Manson, and maybe even longtime Duck Ryan Getzlaf.

Controversy aside, Evander Kane’s debut with the Oilers on Saturday should be considered a success. Kane opened the scoring in the first period, then finished with a plus-2 and three shots and four hits as the Oilers easily handled the Habs by a score of 7-2. Kane played on a line with Connor McDavid and [...]

However, being the glass half-empty guy that [...]
Not one, not two, but three Sabres scored a pair of goals against the Flyers in Saturday’s early game. That’s how bad it is for the Flyers, who have now lost 11 consecutive games. Can they fire another head coach this season? Will UFA-to-be Claude Giroux be traded at the deadline? Lots of questions in [...]

Crosby has power-play goals in back-to-back games, goals in three consecutive games and points in four consecutive games. He’s also taken 18 shots over his [...]

COVID protocol has been a revolving door all season, particularly during the last couple months. As a result, we have many players returning to the Roto Rankings from injury and COVID protocol last month, but numerous other players who have been removed from the main rankings for the same reasons. Due to the number of [...]
