The Toronto Maple Leafs are looking at selling at the trade deadline, that much is inevitable at this point after their dreadful performances in Florida coming out of the Olympic break. And while pending UFAs are definitely on the table, and many of them surely to be moved, another area of the team that GM Brad Treliving could (should?) deal from is in goal. The team has three legit NHL goaltenders. One of them could bring back some nice assets for a team desperately in need of re-stocki...

With just a week to go before the NHL Trade Deadline, the Edmonton Oilers seem destined to make a move to bolster their lineup, in hopes of making another deep run in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. As has been the conversation for the past several years, many expect the Oilers to add to their blue…
Let’s start this off by stating the chances of Steven Stamkos ending up in Tampa between now and next Friday are extremely low. If we were betting people, we would put it at a 17.5% chance, but it’s an off day, it’s the height of trade deadline craziness, and you’re probably bored at work on a Friday, so why not spend a few minutes diving a little deeper into a Stamkosian reunion.
[Ed. Note. After this was published Steven Stamkos himself clarified the situation by stating that there was ...

Toronto has been linked to Edmonton plenty this winter, but one proposed one-for-one never got off the ground. On his latest trade board, Nick Kypreos reported the Edmonton Oilers were “prepared to send” Andrew Mangiapane to the Toronto Maple Leafs for Matias Maccelli , and “the feeling is the Leafs weren’t too interested in it.”
Why Toronto Said No to the Oilers’ One-for-One Offer
Mangiapane’s season hasn’t popped, with seven goals and 14 points in 51 games, and the Oilers have been...
The Edmonton Oilers have already convinced legend Paul Coffey to come back behind the bench to help out with the team's struggling defensive play. But word is starting to grow that the team will also look to add a top-four type d-man at the deadline. One team that has a few pieces on the blueline that could be up for grabs is the Toronto Maple Leafs . And apparently, according to insider Elliotte Friedman , the Oilers have their eye on the biggest name involved: I do think Edmonton...

Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 5-1 loss to the Florida Panthers, which dropped the Maple Leafs’ record to 27-23-9. On the team’s slow start to the game: It is a tough start, right?

The future of pending free agent Bobby McMann is up in the air at this point. It's thought that the Toronto Maple Leafs would like to re-sign him, and that he wants to stay, but for how much is still in question. In addition, what would they be able to land in a trade deadline deal for him? Can they get a first-round pick? If so, they'd have to seriously consider it. If the two sides can't come to an agreement on an extension, and/or a trade offer is too good to pass up, let's run throug...
The Edmonton Oilers’ search to trade Andrew Mangiapane has been nothing short of exhaustive. The winger has been on the market since late December, but the Oilers seemingly have had much interest, despite the fact that reports have surfaced from far and wide about potential suitors. One team that had interest in signing Mangiapane last…

It’s been three weeks since we last watched our beloved Oilers do their thing, and it goes without saying that our last memories before the break weren’t exactly sparkling or overly positive. Edmonton lost back-to-back games to Toronto and Calgary in horrifying fashion, which meant Wednesday’s matchup with the Ducks had an extra layer of…
