As it is, I can just focus on one main decision: Bo Bichette vs. Cody Bellinger. […]

Ominous Update on Maple Leafs D-Man Chris Tanev's Health
The Toronto Maple Leafs have gone five games without a regulation loss, and seem to have righted the ship for now, especially on the defensive end. They've allowed just five regulation goals in those five games, and haven't missed a beat with sensational breakout youngster Dennis Hildeby in net. All that said, this doesn't mean that the Leafs aren't missing Chris Tanev. The shot-blocking defensive rock hasn't played in well over a month, and his return is still undetermined. In fact, we'...

The first period saw Tampa Bay generally carry the play, as […] The post Game Review: Maple Leafs lock down 1-0 lead, continue winning streak over Lightning appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .

Lightning swap young defensemen in trade with Flyers
The Tampa Bay Lightning made their first trade of the year, and while it might be considered a minor one, they bring some potential offense on the blue line into the system. Prior to their game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, the team announced that they had acquired defender Ethan Samson from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for Roman Schmidt. The trade brings Schmidt’s tenure with the organization to a close. A rugged defender with size, the 22-year-old showed some potential over th...

Lightning shutout for second game in a row, fall to Maple Leafs, 2-0
The Tampa Bay Lightning did many, many things well in their 2-0 loss to the Toronto Maples Leafs. They did the things that usually lead to wins. The only thing they didn’t do was score a goal. For the second straight game, Jonas Johansson did his job as he allowed just one goal, and for the second straight game he wasn’t rewarded for his efforts. Despite a valiant charge in the third period, the Lightning couldn’t equalize, and a late empty-net goal sealed their fate. It was a solid start...
