The Edmonton Oilers know they didn’t fully deserve to win Thursday night’s game against the Montreal Canadiens. They were sloppy, disorganized, and looked disinterested at times for the first 50 minutes of the game, but they woke up in the final 10 minutes, erased a two-goal deficit, and won 6-5. It wasn’t pretty. It wasn’t…
It was a shock to everyone on hockey when Steven Stamkos was forced to move on from the Tampa Bay Lightning last season. With the Nashville Predators, he went on to have his least productive year since his rookie season in 2008-09. Now, 2025-26 is looking even worse, with just one goal and two points in eight games. With three years to go (including this one) on an $8 million cap hit, how long will the Nashville Predators—and Stamkos himself—continue to play the disappointing tune that has bee...

The Carolina Hurricanes are tied atop the Eastern Conference and second in the league in points through their first seven games with a record of 6-1-0. Without Pyotr Kochetkov, Jaccob Slavin, and Shayne Gostisbehere already, nothing seems to be slowing them down, except that injuries may catch up to them. Rod Brind'Amour spoke post-game after the Hurricanes' latest win and said that he expects both William Carrier and Eric Robinson to be out for an extended period of time. As for K'Andre Mille...

Getting you set up for tonight’s Jets game.
One of the most popular talking points from the Colorado Avalanche front office in recent years has been how the pandemic has hamstrung their roster building efforts and ability to retain much of their 2022 Stanley Cup winning squad. But is that really the case? Building a Champion First, let’s examine how the 2022 Stanley […]

We've seen him at practice in yellow, non-contact but what are the steps needed before he's ready to return?
The dark cloud over what has been a surprisingly decent start to the Philadelphia Flyers season has been Matvei Michkov’s performance. But after spending a night in Ottawa, there might be some signs of life.
Coming into Thursday night’s game, there were serious questions about whether or not Michkov would get his season going before people start to panic. Maybe, there are some that are already panicking, but after some reassurance that his molasses-slow start to his season is because he s...

The last analysis I did to preview the Buffalo Bills’ Week 6 game against the Atlanta Falcons leaned heavily on the idea of that team’s volatility. It turns out the Bills got a very good version of the Falcons and came away with a loss. I could write a similar article this week about the […]
The Winnipeg Jets ( 5-2-0 ) will face their first back-to-back game situation of the NHL’s 2025-26 campaign, but they likely should have plenty of energy left over since the True Northers only managed to exert a high level of effort in 1 period last night against the Seattle Kraken. Although the final scoreboard read 3-0 for the opposition, it was really only one goal that was the difference….and I happened to miss it while making a late supper mid-game. So it wasn’t that the Jets played horri...
On Thursday night, the Edmonton Oilers put up their biggest offensive showing of the season, scoring three unanswered to defeat the Montreal Canadiens 6-5.
