Let’s start with what was easily the more entertaining of the two games on Saturday. Just when you thought an ending to regulation couldn’t be as dramatic as Cole Perfetti in Game 7 of the first round, Reilly Smith came along in Game 3 and said “hold my beer.” Vegas 4, Edmonton 3 (Oilers lead [...]

Florida 5, Toronto 4 (Leafs lead series 2-1) Brad Marchand scored the game-winning goal at 15:27 of the first overtime to give the Panthers a 5-4 win over Toronto in Game 3. The puck appeared to float off Morgan Rielly past Joseph Woll. https://twitter.com/HockeyDaily365/status/1921031965353885826 Marchand has now scored goals in back-to-back games, and he is [...]

The Anaheim Ducks hired Joel Quenneville to be their next coach after firing Greg Cronin last month at the end of the regular season. I wrote about that hiring here. * Connor McMichael intercepted a puck in the neutral zone, sped past the Carolina defenders, and scored on Frederik Andersen to give the Washington Capitals [...]

Ramblings: Leafs Double Series Lead; Preseason Projections for Matheson, Faber, York, Heiskanen, McAvoy, and Hamilton – May 8

By |2025-05-08T07:21:33-04:00May 8th, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

We can stop calling the Utah franchise whatever we were calling them before (it was never Hockey Club in my book), as the team announced on Wednesday that the franchise is officially named the Mammoth. Overall, not a bad choice. The name is kind of fun and the logo looks good. That logo does kind [...]

Ramblings: Canes and Oilers Win; Injury News From Winnipeg, St. Louis and Dallas; Zuccarello; Garand; Bratt & Darkhorse Fantasy Pick Ups (May 8)

By |2025-05-07T00:17:10-04:00May 7th, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

Frederik Andersen had the best GSAA numbers in round one (a cumulative stat noting how many goals above average a goalie stopped), despite playing only 3.5 games. He made his return for game two last night, and only allowed one across just over three periods last night in the overtime in Washington. He could be [...]

Ramblings: Leafs Take Game 1; Islanders Win Draft Lottery; Blake Out as Kings GM; Preseason Point Projections for Toffoli, Huberdeau, Kaprizov, Caufield, and Peterka – May 6

By |2025-05-05T22:58:48-04:00May 6th, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

The NHL Draft Lottery took place on Monday night, and in a huge move up the board, the New York Islanders ended up winning the first overall pick. So, the team that currently does not have a general manager now has the first overall pick in the Draft. I wonder how much this changes the [...]

Ramblings: Lowry Lifts Jets to Round 2; Standouts from Eliminated Teams including Guhle, Goncalves & Hartman (May 5)

By |2025-05-05T00:10:20-04:00May 5th, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

1.6 seconds (later changed to 2.2). That’s all that stood between the Jets and heartbreak at home in Game 7. Fortunately, Winnipeg is one of Canada’s coldest cities, so a few Jets had ice in their veins on Sunday night. Captain Adam Lowry lifted his team to Round 2 with the game-winning goal in double [...]

By |2025-05-04T11:15:19-04:00May 4th, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

One Game 7 delivered in terms of entertainment value. Let’s hope the other one does the same before we start Round 2.   Dallas 4, Colorado 2 (Stars win series 4-3) When the Avalanche traded Mikko Rantanen, they wouldn’t have envisioned him facing them in their upcoming first-round series. Yet in a strange twist that [...]

Hockey fans will receive two Game 7s this weekend: Colorado and Dallas on Saturday night, and now St. Louis and Winnipeg on Sunday. St. Louis 5, Winnipeg 2 (series tied 3-3) If you placed a bet on the outcome of this game, hopefully you took into account the Blues’ home winning streak. With the 5-2 [...]
