Let’s Talk About the Current States of the Blackhawks and Sharks Rebuilds
Really good read from this weekend from Ben Pope at the Chicago Sun-Times looking at the current directions of the front offices in Chicago and San Jose. The Blackhawks and Sharks play Monday night, so I thought it was worth both a bump and some additional discussion. The parallels between the Blackhawks and Sharks run deep. Both Mike Grier and Kyle Davidson were named the permanent general managers of their respective clubs in 2022. And, as Pope writes, both teams went with the burn-it-d...

NHL Rumors: 3 Teams Will Not Give Artemi Panarin an Extension in a Trade
The trade market around Artemi Panarin keeps tightening, and the biggest wrinkle is still the same one he has been clear about for weeks: he wants a new deal lined up before he approves a move. On Sportsnet ’s “Saturday Headlines ,” Elliotte Friedman reiterated that “an extension matters,” then drew a pretty clear line in the sand with three contenders that will not be giving Panarin an extension in a trade and are only looking at him as a pure rental for a playoff run: the Colorado Aval...

Montreal Canadiens Organizational Players of January
NHL Player of the Month: Cole Caufield Cole Caufield wasn’t playing at his usual level in December, outscored by two teammates after only scoring five goals of his own. On January 2, he found out that he hadn’t been named to the U.S. National Men’s Team for the Olympics, and, like Michael Jordan, he took that personally. Caufield couldn’t be stopped in the first month of 2026, and with more game days than off days to kick off the new year, that resulted in 13 goals through 16 games p...
