Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope everyone has all (or most) of their holiday shopping finished and can sit back and relax the rest of the year without the last minute stress! We have a number of games this week to enjoy so there are only two days that we’ll consider light days. There are five [...]
Emil Lilleberg has been deemed week-to-week, per Erik Erlendsson. Ryan McDonagh and Victor Hedman may be returning shortly – still TBD on that – but this now means that the Lightning are missing four defencemen from the lineup. It is amazing that they went into Monday night’s game against Florida top in the division with [...]
With Stuart Skinner finally traded to Pittsburgh after what seemed like weeks or months of speculation, I decided to check in with the Western Teams and see how their goalies were doing. We all should know that it’s not just a reflection on goaltending, but on team defense as well, so I’ve broken out defender [...]
There are only two words to describe this past Friday: absolute chaos. In a single day, Edmonton completely recalibrated its goaltending, while the Wild unloaded a bundle of budding stars to acquire one of the best defencemen in the game. In the wake of Friday’s trades, it feels like an appropriate time to look back. [...]
Sunday had a little extra juice on the schedule, and the Devils–Canucks matchup was one of the more interesting games to dig into. The headline going in was the debut of Zeev Buium and Marco Rossi with Vancouver, both fresh off being acquired from Minnesota in the blockbuster deal that sent Quinn Hughes the other [...]

The morning after I listed Simon Nemec as a potential weekend add, he was declared out for both of the Devils’ weekend games. Sorry about that. The Devils are dealing with a rash of injuries and absences at the moment, as Jack Hughes, Timo Meier, Arseny Gritsyuk, and Brett Pesce (among others) also missed Saturday’s [...]
Big trades, major injuries, streaking teams, and young guns cooking have the NHL and hockey betting world on fire. The same cannot be said for our performance last week that drags our overall win-loss record down to 18-25 on the year, but we’re back at it as we get set for what is sure to [...]
The purpose of Friday afternoon news drops is to try to push through major (bad) news at a time when very few people might be paying attention. However, Friday afternoon’s trade definitely rocked the hockey world. The Quinn Hughes trade rumors had ramped up over the past week to the point where a deal this [...]
The Vancouver Canucks have traded star defenseman Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild for center Marco Rossi, defenseman Zeev Buium, forward Liam Ohgren, and a 2026 first-round pick. The Wild receive: Hughes, the 2024 Norris Trophy winner and one of the league’s top defensemen. The Wild are preparing to go all in this season and [...]
