NHL Trade Rumors: 4 Teams Linked To Ducks' Mason McTavish

It was a stressful offseason for Mason McTavish last summer as he and the Anaheim Ducks battled it out until 10 days into training camp before they came to terms on an extension for the restricted free agent.  After missing all that time at camp, the regular season wasn't much better for McTavish, despite being armed with a six-year, $42 million contract ($7M AAV).  Aside from a few brief spells of inspired play, he suffered his lowest production and ice time in his four NHL seasons,...

Insider Implies Oilers HAVE Spoken To Bruce Cassidy

The Bruce Cassidy/Vegas Golden Knights drama carries on. With the team now getting set for the Stanley Cup Finals beginning next week, they will most surely be standing pat on their refusal of all interview requests for their fired (but still under contract) head coach Bruce Cassidy.  The Edmonton Oilers are one team that was notably turned down. He seems like exactly the head coach that club needs. Is it possible they'll continue waiting to see if he has interest in the job... Or do they...

Oilers trade tree: Mattias Ekholm trade fallout

The Edmonton Oilers have only really “gone for it” at a trade deadline once in the Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl era.

Flyers’ Rasmus Ristolainen is back on NHL trade boards

It’s completely unknown just how busy the Philadelphia Flyers are going to be this summer. They can be involved in a whole lot of trade discussions as they look to improve off of their surprising playoff appearance. Or, they might just sit back and let some prospects and young guys develop and head into next season comfortable with someone like Porter Martone being on the roster for all 82 games, something they didn’t get to have last year. But, one name has already appeared on a trade bo...

Oilers look weak with no rebuttal to McCrimmon leak claims

Make no mistake, the situation between the Edmonton Oilers and Vegas Golden Knights is nothing short of “he said, she said.” Word leaked early this month that the Oilers, with Kris Knoblauch still under contract, wanted to speak with Bruce Cassidy, fired months earlier by the Golden Knights. Vegas wouldn’t play ball, still won’t play…

Rangers series preview: The Royals have a lone star

The Rangers won their first championship in 2023, in part by spending a lot on free agents. But they had to pay the piper, and since then they have been a middling team around .500, missing the playoffs in each of the last two seasons.
