As we roll through American Thanksgiving weekend, the NHL standings are starting to settle, giving us a picture of team dynamics and areas for improvement as the season progresses.

Jake DeBrusk had a sensational Sunday, scoring the overtime winner against Detroit to complete the second hat trick of his career. The 28-year-old winger started heating up after J.T. Miller took a leave of absence on November 19th, racking up nine points in six games since then. Notably, four of those points came with the [...]

The Nashville Predators have traded goalie Scott Wedgewood to the Colorado Avalanche for Justus Annunen and a sixth-round pick. A goaltending shakeup was needed in Colorado, which has the third-worst team goals-against average in the league (3.71 GA/GP). Alexandar Georgiev has not been a reliable starter for a team that has Stanley Cup hopes, and [...]
Good morning all! So I haven’t really been able to get into much DFS during the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States, but I did have a New Jersey power-play stack on Tuesday. I was a little tight on salary while building and wanted to do a couple different things, so I went full NJ [...]
