James Hagens had six goals through two games (including all four of his team’s markers in a 4-3 OT win on Sunday), and is making a real push to immediately knock the $50M man Fraser Minten down to third-line center. He might not be able to put up big numbers right away against actual NHL [...]
Happy Monday y’all! Not only did we have Week 1 of the NFL this past week, but rookie camps opened for the NHL and a lot of organizations played in mini tournaments so we had some NHL action as well! These games are always fun because they are kids trying to make an impression and [...]
*Note: Stats courtesy of Frozen Tools This week, we’ll be taking a look between the pipes.

Take a look at our Top 10 Fantasy Goalies rankings for the [...]

I wrote the Fantasy Take on this one. Prior to today, Kreider was not well-liked by Habs fans for this incident during the 2014 Eastern Conference [...]
The Detroit Red Wings and Dylan Larkin released a joint statement on Friday announcing that Larkin will report to training camp next week, but he will no longer serve as the team’s captain. The Red Wings also addressed Larkin’s trade request by saying they will deal with his situation once a new GM is hired. [...]
After not occurring in the 2025 offseason due to what were perceived as too few uncertainties in terms of starting goalies, my annual poll on goalie battles returns for 2026, as the landscape suggests there are enough teams where the starting goalie picture is anywhere from somewhat unclear to downright murky.

Fraser Minten signed a seven-year deal with a $7.2 Million cap hit yesterday, which feels like it was a bit of a surprise, but considering the recent growth in salaries it might end up looking like a smart bet by Boston. Last year the number might have been a five-year deal at $5 Million per [...]
