William Nylander was back in the lineup for Toronto on Monday night. He started the game on the second line with John Tavares and Easton Cowan. Notably, Cowan was moved to the top PP unit with Matthew Knies being demoted to the second unit. For now, Cowan has a top-6, top PP role with the [...]
The Colorado Avalanche had extended winger Martin Necas for eight years with an average annual value of $11.5-million, according to Elliotte Friedman. Necas was set to hit free agency this coming offseason but is another big name off the board along with the likes of Jack Eichel and Kirill Kaprizov. This will make him a [...]
The Utah Mammoth have extended centre Logan Cooley for eight years, the team announced.

The Washington Capitals got some good news as centre Pierre-Luc Dubois was at practice in a normal jersey, according to Bailey Johnson.

Including Wednesday and Thursday night’s games, if Tkachuk returns on December 2nd, that would mean 22 games missed, or a quarter of the season. [...]
The Detroit Red Wings announced that winger Lucas Raymond was day-to-day after leaving their game against Toronto on Monday with an injury. He did not play on Wednesday night, though it seems as if this will be a short-term thing. Even without Raymond in the lineup, Detroit was able to post its third win in [...]
The Philadelphia Flyers have had concerns about their goaltending situation for several years now, which is why it was interesting that Dan Vladar got the call for the season opener on Thursday night, and not Samuel Ersson. I was watching other games, but it seems as if Vladar was solid in net for the Flyers, [...]
