Welcome back to The Journey, where we track the development of prospects as they excel in junior, make the NHL, and push towards stardom. Watching prospects live adds layers that numbers alone cannot always capture. This week, I attended a WHL matchup to get an in-person look at several notable young players, not just to [...]
With one month of the season now in the books, many players have moved either up or down from their preseason rank. On top of that, injuries and other absences longer than a week have pulled more players out of the top 100. All of this is to say that the deck has been reshuffled [...]
Let’s start with some injury news, since we can’t get enough of it with this season’s condensed schedule. Filed under the weird and bizarre category, Jack Hughes reportedly suffered a cut to his hand at a team dinner and is expected to miss Saturday’s game against Washington as a result. The exact injury and timeline [...]
This week’s list leans toward players stepping into meaningful roles rather than riding short-term spikes. Whether it’s a returning forward walking straight into a top-six opening, a center gaining traction with heavier usage, a defender inheriting PP1 out of necessity, or a young winger carving out room on an elite offense, the thread is the [...]
This week on Frozen Tool Forensics we are turning specifically toward defence production. There are certainly a number of D making headlines, from rookie Matthew Schaefer whom we discussed last week, to Simon Nemec pulling off a hattrick, to Cale Makar casually on an 111-point pace. Today though I want to focus on players who [...]

Early on Thursday, Bruce Garrioch reported that Ottawa Senators forward Shane Pinto had signed a four-year contract extension. The new deal has a $7.5-million average annual value and will carry Pinto until his age-30 season when he’ll be able to sign another contract, supposing that this one goes well. As long as Pinto keeps doing [...]
Good morning to all my DFS folks out there! We have a 10-gamer on our hands tonight and while looking over the slate early this morning for whatever reason, City Correspondent Stefon from SNL Weekend Update popped into my very, very scattered mind. “This slate has everything! Injuries, the Sharks, a Colorado smash spot, Oilers [...]
Welcome back to Puck Picks! Each Thursday, I break down some of my favorite NHL bets, explain the reasoning behind them, and track performance transparently. The goal isn’t just to share picks, but to help you recognize why certain spots have value so you can identify them throughout the season. I’ll be tracking every pick [...]
Hey everyone, out there, and a very warm welcome back into the world’s premier destination for all things NHL salary cap. Last week, we deep dove into a couple recent signings and while I was looking for an extension or trade to discuss this week, I got into a conversation with my league about “tanking” [...]
