We got a trade that seemingly came out of nowhere on Thursday afternoon as the Minnesota Wild shipped winger Nino Niederreiter to the Carolina Hurricanes for centre Victor Rask. Both players are having down seasons with Niederreiter having just 9 goals and Rask posting just 6 points in 26 games. The latter had been [...]

Alex Ovechkin is turning down the opportunity to play in this year’s All Star Game, opting instead to just take the week to rest. With the rules the league put in place years ago, that means Ovechkin will have to miss a game either directly before or directly after the ASG itself. Given the [...]
