Conference finals action continues this week, with one team trying to avoid a sweep and another series still very much in the balance. First up, Tuesday night is Game 4 between the Colorado Avalanche and Vegas Golden Knights, where an injured Avalanche team is just trying to find a way to extend the series after falling behind 3-0. Vegas has controlled most of the matchup so far, but Colorado still has enough high-end talent to possibly make things uncomfortable for at least a night. Game...
The Royals did not follow through after that Mariners series to do anything to the Yankees except scare them enough in that series opener to annoy the Yankees into grinding them into the dirt for two straight nights. The Royals don’t have a lot to play for in terms of wins and losses, but if […]
The NWSL’s Gotham FC has hired the Florida Panthers’ Mark Zarthar as president, according to multiple people familiar with the details. Zarthar was named the Panthers’ chief revenue officer last August after more than two years as the NHL club’s chief strategy officer. Gotham, which is controlled by Carolyn Tisch Blodgett, has not formally had a president […]
We're less than a month out from the 2026 NHL Draft. With the lack of depth on the unrestricted free agent market, trades are going to be the topic around the league this summer—it will be the only way for teams to get significantly better. And that should start with a vengeance ahead of, or at, the draft. The Vancouver Canucks were supremely disappointed that they didn't get the No. 1 overall pick in the lottery. Instead, they fell to the 3rd pick. San Jose is ahead of them, at No...

The Tampa Bay Lightning accelerated the timeline of one of their more intriguing prospects. On Friday, they announced that they signed Benjamin Rautiainen to a three-year entry-level contract. The 20-year-old is now set to start next season in North America with either the Syracuse Crunch or the Tampa Bay Lightning. While this wasn’t entirely unexpected, the Lightning did have to buy out the final season of his contract with Tappara in order to facilitate the deal. With the signing, Rauti...
Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson's hubris may have yielded unintended consequences with the NHL this week. It was announced that the team shopped forward Ilya Mikheyev's rights , before he reached unrestricted free agent status, attempting to gauge interest in the bottom-six forward. "I guess it was let known across the league that Chicago probably isn't going to be able to sign Ilya Mikheyev," Friedman said. "His rights are available if any team wants to talk to h...
As the Minnesota Wild look to the summer, the team isn't looking to take their second-round loss to the Colorado Avalanche lying down. "If there’s something out there that can make our team better, I am willing to do it," vowed Bill Guerin at his end-of-year presser. "I won’t sit on my hands."...
Texas Rangers lineup for May 29, 2026 against the Kansas City Royals: starting pitchers are MacKenzie Gore and Stephen Kolek. The floundering Texas Rangers will try to flounder less tonight against the Royals of Kansas City. Offensive dynamo Nicky Lopez is hitting ninth, which I assume is for that “two leadoff man” synergy. The lineup: […]

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,...

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...
The Edmonton Oilers have only really “gone for it” at a trade deadline once in the Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl era. They’ve made the playoffs every season since 2019-20, but often add depth pieces. In 2020, they acquired Andreas Athanasiou and Mike Green, then Dmitry Kulikov in 2021. The next season saw them add…
