Anaheim Ducks captain Radko Gudas is in his feelings about kneeing Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews The physical defenceman got caught out of position last week, and delivered a vicious knee to the Maple Leafs' superstar, resulting in Matthews suffering a torn MCL. Matthews has since had surgery and is expected to make a full recovery ahead of training camp in September. Meanwhile, Gudas does it again, but this time, he's feeling very guilty about what took place. "I really hate the...
The San Jose Sharks are getting ready to play another hot team today as the Philadelphia Flyers roll into town. The Flyers have won six in a row on the road, and are wrapping up the California swing with a stop in San Jose. The first two stops went well for the Flyers, a 3-2 overtime win over the Anaheim Ducks and a 4-3 shootout win over the Los Angeles Kings. While the Sharks appreciate the help in the playoff picture, the team would like to prevent the California sweep today.
The last t...
The Edmonton Oilers find themselves in an interesting spot with roughly one month remaining in the NHL season. Even after a disappointing loss to the Florida Panthers, they find themselves just one point back of the Anaheim Ducks for the top spot in the division, and even though the Ducks have two games in hand…
It’s here. The Philadelphia Flyers are in Anaheim facing the Ducks and it’s yet another reunion of sorts. The headline will of course be Cutter Gauthier as we wonder just how fans will react to him facing the team he rejected, but Trevor Zegras is back in Southern California for the first time since his trade to the Flyers.

The NHL’s Department of Player Safety appears comfortable with how it handles suspensions for illegal and dangerous plays. In response to the league suspending Ducks defenceman Radko Gudas for just five games after a knee-on-knee hit that ended Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews’ season, Connor McDavid suggested it may be time to revisit the process….
It was a contentious offseason last summer for the Anaheim Ducks and one of their young core players, Mason McTavish. The 23-year-old center was a restricted free agent, and engaged in a holdout from training camp as the Ducks just weren't convinced they wanted to hand out the kind of massive contract that the player was looking for. In the end, they settled on a six-year, $7 million AAV deal. But McTavish hasn't quite lived up to his end of the bargain this season with just 13 goals and...
First period
The passes are just as sloppy as they were last night, which isn’t a good sign early in this one.
Kirby Dach takes a hit he’s not expecting from Jeffrey Viel and takes a few seconds to get back up. Perhaps just winded.
Apparently not as he’s gone to the dressing room. The concussion spotter may have called him in.
Arber Xkehaj goes after Viel, who declines his invitation, and then also turns down Josh Anderson.
The good news is you can’t say the Canadien...

This could have been a game in which the Montreal Canadiens were seeking some bonus points after four consecutive wins, but their play wasn’t up to the standard last night that they’d shown through the last couple of games, and they lost for a second time this season to the Sa...
The San Jose Sharks get ready for the second game of back-to-backs today. The good news for the Sharks is that the Ottawa Senators are also playing the second game of a back-to-back, albeit with a bit more rest. The Senators played yesterday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks and were kind enough to do the Sharks a favor and beat the Ducks 2-0. Ullmark made 23 saves for the shutout.
For those of you playoff race watching, that loss allowed the Vegas Golden Knights (F*** Vegas) to leapfro...

The Montreal Canadiens may have played a better defensive game than they had in San Jose 11 days earlier, but the result was still the same on home ice last night: a regulation loss. The Habs were unfortunate to have an early goal disallowed by a quick whistle and then surrend...
Never forget 2007.
A chance to rebound against a mortal enemy.
It was a heartbreaking moment for John Carlson and the Washington Capitals — players and fans alike — when the 17-year Caps veteran was dealt at the trade deadline to the Anaheim Ducks. "He was really crushed by being traded by the only team he's ever played for," said insider Pierre LeBrun on TSN Insider Trading . Many around town thought the franchise's all-time top defenseman should have received a better farewell than a middle-of-the-night voicemail to let him know he'd been traded. ...
Auston Matthews was forced out of the Toronto Maple Leafs game against the Anaheim Ducks Thursday night after a brutal knee-on-knee hit from Radko Gudas. Radko Gudas received a 5-minute major and a game misconduct for kneeing Auston Matthews. Matthews has since left the game 🤕 pic.twitter.com/E8lc8MjvJh — Gino Hard (@GinoHard_) March 13, 2026 "Matthews was in serious distress", as noted by TSN colour commentator Mike Johnson.

Recap of the game.
Everyone needs a break every now and then, right? Well, the Winnipeg Jets certainly seemed to have put the 3 week Olympic break to good use, as the franchise has yet to play a game since then where the True Northers didn’t walk away with points. The Manitobans have a 4-0-2 record since goalie Connor Hellebuyck won a gold medal in Italy and that has launched a new belief that they could comeback to steal the Western Conference’s final wildcard spot.
The Seattle Kraken have provided some as...
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Dan is joined by Lighthouse Hockey’s Jenny Berman to discuss the acquisition of Brayden Schenn and the games surrounding this season’s Trade Deadline. It was a wild weekend for the Islanders, who dropped two massive duds in Anaheim and LA, then made a shocking last minute trade for the St. Louis Blues captain on Friday’s […]
The Islanders finish their four-game road trip with a stop to help Brayden Schenn pack up in St. Louis, where the Blues are returning from a lottery-spoiling perfect four-game western road trip of their own. In full selloff mode, the Blues somehow took out the Kraken, Sharks, Kings and finally the Ducks, with a 4-0 […]
It had been a little while since the Oilers faced a true Stanley Cup contender. After returning from the Olympic break, Edmonton played the Ducks, Kings, Sharks, and Senators. Against that group of playoff hopefuls and bubble teams, the Oilers split the four games, scoring 22 goals while allowing 16. The Eastern Conference-leading Hurricanes rolled…
First period
The Anaheim Ducks beat Samuel Montembeault 20 seconds into the game. Montreal challenges the play for offside, and it is determined that Chris Kreider was an inch offside on the play. The Habs get saved on this occasion.
So Anaheim gets a shot on its next shift, and it also beats Montembeault. There’s nothing to save him this time.
We’ve played 61 seconds of this game, and the puck has been in a net three times. The third time it’s Nick Suzuki who finds the mesh t...
The 2026 trade deadline has come and gone. Overall, it was a pretty quiet trade deadline for the Pacific Division, with no team drastically improving ahead of March 6. Aside from one move by the Anaheim Ducks, none of the teams playoff-bound acquired a needle-mover, with the biggest moves coming from the teams that are…
