Because of this, let's look at three wingers who the Jets should consider pursuing this offseason. Jake DeBrusk, Vancouver Canucks The Canucks are...

Ottawa Senators The Senators undoubtedly need to improve the right side of their blueline this offseason. Because of this, it would not ...

With this and netminder Connor Ingram being a pending unrestricted free agent, the possibility of the Oilers trading for another goaltender this summer should not be ruled out....

He's the longest-serving player on the team, but Morgan Rielly's run with the Toronto Maple Leafs may be coming to an end after the final six games of the regular season. With the team in desperate need of rebuilding their blueline, they would love to move on from the 13-year veteran. The problem is, he has a full no-move clause, and has stated on numerous occasions that he wants to stay in Toronto—the only NHL city he's ever called home. However, as noted by insider Nick Kypreos o...

They'll have to make their run to the 2026 playoffs without one defenseman in tow, as they have lost blueliner Damon Severson for the rest of the seaso...
