The latest to weigh in on the Auston Matthews/Radko Gudas affair are none other than the Tkachuk brothers, Matthew & Brady. Trust us when we say that if they watched as their team's best player was taken out with a dirty hit like that, they would not have been standing around doing nothing. But don't take our word for it. Here they are on their latest Wingmen podcast, basically ripping Matthews' Toronto Maple Leafs teammates for not sticking up for their captain: “If you go after our bes...

Why the Golden Knights Haven’t Extended Rasmus Andersson Yet
At first glance, the delay might look worrying. When the Golden Knights traded for Noah Hanifin in 2...

The second-worst team in the league (even worse than the Rangers) is in town and the Isles need the points in the very tight Eastern Conference playoff race.

I have no idea why anyone makes a big day out of Trade Deadline Day any longer. Everyone was making a big deal about how the Nazem Kadri trade from Calgary to Colorado was a "blockbuster", yet all I did was shrug my shoulders because Colorado added a third-line centerman.

For as much as TSN, Sportsnet, and the NHL Network make Trade Deadline Day a thing, it's not. And it s...
