The name of the game this week has been trade deadline talk. Monday’s deadline created an interesting weekend of news, takes, and of course one voided trade. We won’t really be touching specifically on the deadline as the moves and implications have been very well covered on the site. Start here for a rundown on [...]
It has been a very rough season in net for Joonas Korpisalo, posting just an .877 save percentage in 22 games (17 starts) on the year. That kind of play would be acceptable on the penalty kill, not as an overall average. There seems to be a reason for that, as the Columbus Blue Jackets [...]

Those things having been said, I find Yahoo draft averages to be a very good way to assess a [...]
Dobber had you covered all on his own on Monday and did a fantastic job breaking down all the fantasy takes for the relevant deadline deals. You can find all those pieces linked here. * There were a few signings too, and it sounded like Lou Lamoriello didn’t get any deals done, so out of [...]
Welcome back to another edition of Lining Up. This iteration will continue examining goaltending battles across the league. With the trade deadline ending yesterday, there is also a need to revisit the situation in Minnesota, particularly that in net with Cam Talbot and Marc-André Fleury. Let’s dive in.
