The Vancouver Canucks traded multiple players this season to kick off their rebuild. This will likely carry over to the summer, and one specific Canucks forward who could be a trade candidate to watch is Drew O'Connor. The 27-year-old forward will be a pending UFA in 2026-27 and could be a good trade chip for the Canucks to dangle during the summer. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire O'Connor during the offseason. New Jersey Devils The Devils need to ad...
If we weren’t going to make the playoffs, the next best thing is to ruin other team’s chances. Even better is when it’s one of my top 5 most hated teams in Detroit, so a nice little Saturday, all things considered. 1st Period However, it was an absolutely awful start to this game, as the […]

The New Jersey Devils' next order of business as the 2025-26 season comes to an end is to name a new president of hockey operations and/or general manager. But whoever the new man on the job is, he'll have a critical top priority to take care of in short order. Perennial 30-ish goal scorer Nico Hischier is just one year from free agency. As of July 1, he'll be eligible for an extension. Something needs to happen on that front. ASAP, says insider Chris Johnston on his podcast : Probably t...
The New Jersey Devils are officially eliminated. And this time, they won’t even be able to claim that the conference was just too difficult or that they matched last season’s record.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are back in the playoffs, officially clinching their spot on Thursday night with a 5-2 win over the New Jersey Devils.

The New Jersey Devils have had a very disappointing 2025-26 season. Due to this, there is a chance that they could look to shake up their roster this offseason because of it. One Devils forward who is standing out as a potential trade candidate heading into the offseason is Timo Meier. The 29-year-old winger has simply not been a good fit in New Jersey, so let's look at three teams that could target him this offseason. Chicago Blackhawks The Blackhawks could be a team to watch this...

Pregame The Penguins are without the services of Connor Dewar (undisclosed lower body injury, day-to-day) so Avery Hayes slots back into the lineup.

With their massive 5-1 win over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night, the Philadelphia Flyers raised their playoff odds to over 50% from just about anyone who does those sorts of calculations. They are more likely than not going to be clinching their spot before season’s end and hosting their first playoff games in Philadelphia since 2018. And with just exactly how they won on Tuesday night in Newark, there is some more confidence in this team being able to make some more noise in the p...
