Filling in for the injured Elvis Merzlikins, Joonas Korpisalo, and Daniil Tarasov, J-F Berube deserved a better fate on Friday. Even though he posted his fourth consecutive quality start, Berube was tagged with the loss because the ice was tilted in the Columbus end, which resulted in him yielding four goals to Carolina. The Jackets [...]
Is there anything better than the “Game Will Start Shortly” screen on NHL.tv? It’s the calm before the storm and with most leagues having around six or seven weeks remaining in the season we’re right in the thick of things.

This week we are going to start a mini-series looking back at some early season returns and where those players are now. It’s the “Where Are They Now” mini-series. Kind of like checking up on all of your high school classmates (you know to make sure they aren’t doing better than you), just different. Originally [...]
Just in yesterday’s Ramblings I discussed how Elvis Merzilikins had re-joined the Columbus Blue Jackets and could be ready to make a return. Well, that didn’t really happen as he was put on the injured reserve on Thursday morning. It has been seven days since his last game and this was about clearing some room [...]
With there being so many high-profile players potentially being shipped around during the trade deadline this year it just felt right to talk about a few more of the potential trade candidates.

It seems like a lot longer ago than October when the puck dropped on the season, and all your players – you hoped – were poised for greatness. Just like every campaign though, quite a few have not lived up to expectations. But can any of these disappointments still find a way to play better [...]
It makes no sense for the Wild to be trading Kevin Fiala, who scored his 13th goal last night… in his last 19 games. Fiala is on fire, and is finally on pace for a 70-point season after a slow start. All of his underlying numbers are extremely consistent with previous years. On top of [...]
