Far from a guarantee to work out, but it was taking a talented player that had shown some goal-scoring ability in the NHL that may have simply needed a […]

Oilers Could Go 2 Very Different Directions With Pickard

The Edmonton Oilers have completely changed up their goaltending from the start of the season and from what they had on their back-to-back Stanley Cup Final runs.

The Oilers are going to continue running with Jarry and Ingram as they have played well and the team is hot. So where does that l...

Maple Leafs Rumors: Bobby McMann's Next Contract Details

The Toronto Maple Leafs are in a transition year after losing Mitch Marner and bringing in a few new players as tests to try to make up for it.

While some players are playing their final season with the Maple Leafs, others will be sticking around due to their elevated play this season. Bobby McMann could very we...

NHL weekend rankings: Thoughts on the Penguins, Sharks, and an ugly weekend in Toronto

The first was Mitch Marner, finally returning to Toronto for the first time since his summer departure to Last Vegas. On Sunday, it was a rare afternoon game, this one featuring a visit from the league’s...

Pittsburgh Penguins making trade offers including RHD

The Pittsburgh Penguins are moving on from right-handed defenceman Matt Dumba.
