Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean, Puneet Sharma, and Dobber — 1. Right before the NHL holiday roster freeze kicked in, NHL GMs quickly consummated two trades. Merry Christmas, pal. Pack your [...]
The high injury total from the condensed schedule has resulted in more prospects and faces in new places taking more prominent roles than they normally would. You’ll see a few of those players in today’s Ramblings. Denver Barkey had an impressive NHL debut, finishing with two assists in 15:18 while playing on a line with [...]
Just one week after being acquired by Edmonton from Pittsburgh, Tristan Jarry has been placed on injured reserve while he undergoes further evaluation for a lower-body injury. In the meantime, Connor Ingram has been recalled from the AHL. Ingram has an .856 SV% in the AHL after 11 appearances, so I wouldn’t bank on him [...]

Necas has eight points over his last four games, pulling into the top 5 in scoring. Meanwhile, MacKinnon continues to add to his lead in [...]

Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean, Puneet Sharma, and Dobber — 1.

Friday’s schedule was much busier than normal due to Black Friday, the day after American Thanksgiving (is it an official holiday in the US now, or is it simply understood that workers will take the day off there?) It also meant that most games had earlier-than-normal start times, so hopefully your lineup was set in [...]

Since Nov. 15, the Sabres have quietly built some momentum, winning three of four games. Toss this one onto the win column, and [...]
