The Chicago Blackhawks are making their way towards another Draft Lottery, which is symbiotic with a recent roster move as they called up 2024 second overall pick Artyom Levshunov for Monday night’s game in Colorado. Perhaps sending the defenceman out against the Avalanche isn’t an ideal way to get him acclimated to the NHL, but [...]
Another expected domino fell as the Vegas Golden Knights reunited with an old friend by acquiring Reilly Smith from the New York Rangers. All told, Smith wasn’t having that bad of a season with New York – his goals and assists per game are nearly in line with what he did in Pittsburgh last season [...]

In some injury news from the Edmonton Oilers, defenceman Darnell Nurse was out of the lineup for Thursday night’s road game in Florida.

The Colorado Avalanche got a big piece of their offence back as winger Valeri Nichushkin returned on Wednesday night for their home game against New Jersey.

The Department of Player Safety announced that Anaheim forward Trevor Zegras would have a hearing for his hit on Detroit forward Michael Rasmussen on Sunday night. Zegras doesn’t have any real history behind him but still earned a three-game suspension. That will keep him out for the rest of the week and be eligible to [...]
The injuries had really started to pile up for the Columbus Blue Jackets. Boone Jenner has yet to play this season, Yegor Chinakhov has been out since late November, Sean Monahan was injured in early January, and Kirill Marchenko broke his jaw after being hit by a puck a few games before the Four Nations [...]
Team Canada punched their ticket to the Four Nations Faceoff Final thanks to a 5-3 win over Team Finland on Monday afternoon. They didn’t make it easy on the nerves for Canadian fans as they had a 4-0 lead with seven minutes left in the game and Finland reeled off three goals in under 5:30 [...]
