The NHL Department Player of Safety rendered their judgments on Edmonton’s Connor McDavid and Vancouver’s Tyler Myers after the incidents over the weekend at the end of the game that saw both players give cross-checks to the head of an opponent: Both players have been suspended for three games.

These rankings are different from keeper rankings in that they don’t extend beyond the current season. These rankings could even be [...]

In general, players can be hurt in the plus-minus category based on their teammates’ poor [...]
If this was J.T. Miller’s last game with the Canucks, he gave the team a sample of what they will be missing. Miller had a highly effective game, picking up two primary power-play assists in the first period in a 3-2 win over Edmonton. Miller was also 18-for-23 in faceoffs, also getting matched up against [...]
