The Edmonton Oilers goalie trade candidates conversation is back on the front burner, and Matt Larkin of Daily Faceoff just mapped the market in tiers. With Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in their prime and the window still open, Larkin argues Edmonton should explore upgrades even if Stuart Skinner steadies. His board ranges from low-risk veteran help to true franchise changers, giving general manager Stan Bowman multiple paths if he decides to act. Alex Lyon has been exceptional for ...

Cooper Black took the loss, finishing with 18 saves on 22 shots. Jack Devine, Ben Steeves, Nolan Foote ...
I asked Connor Bedard after the Blackhawks’ 3-1 loss last night about the Kings’ style of play — specifically from the perspective that the Blackhawks have been preaching process thru the lens of playoff approach/intensity. The Kings play a very specific style of game that suits their personnel. Bedard said the Kings play was “boring” — but did it in a way that he was very intentional to say it was “not a dig.” Just that the Kings crowded the blue line when the Hawks wanted to enter the zone a...
The Jets defeated the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8 action. One consistent theme through the early part of the 2025 season is that the Jets have leaned on young players with heavy snap totals. That remained true in the first victory of the season. Eleven first or second year Jets players saw at least 20 […]
The Minnesota Wild have come out of the gates cold. Their five-on-five performance has been dreadful, whether measured by results or underlying metrics. On the Wilderness Talk Podcast, I identified two main culprits for Minnesota’s inept five-on-five play: young defensemen and a thin for...
