Wild Remain Unbeaten In Quinn Hughes Era

That's Wild The Minnesota Wild have not lost a game since they acquired Quinn Hughes. The latest showing was a 5-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets -- earned by Joel Eriksson Ek scoring a game-winning goal on a scramble in front of the net in the third period. This team sure seems good. [S...

Bears-Packers: Keys to a Chicago victory

The rematch is set. Huge implications for the playoffs, the division and this rivalry are at stake. Outside of Illinois and Wisconsin, the rivalry hasn’t really resonated with a lot of football fans due to neither team being good at the same time as the other. But this meeting has a chance to reignite this […]

Oilers' Tristan Jarry leaves game injured vs. Bruins

Absolute nightmare fuel for Edmonton Oilers fans on Thursday night as goaltender Tristan Jarry left the game against the Boston Bruins due to a lower-body injury. The play occurred in the second period as Jarry appeared to have tweaked something during some lateral movements and it was worrisome because of the fact it was a non-contact injury. He was stretching from post to post to make a save and then felt something wrong. Cal Pickard came in relief and finished off the win. Calvin Pickard ha...

Game Preview #35: New Jersey Devils @ Utah Mammoth

Last Devils Game Late (on the east coast) Wednesday night (morning?) the Devils defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 2-1. In case you have been living under a rock, or just, you know, busy…the game marked the return of Brett Pesce. It was the first game Pesce had played in since the win on 10/26 against […]

3 Potential Trade Destinations for Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Andersen is a trade candidate to keep an eye on this season. The Hurricanes have goaltending depth for the first time in a long time, and with Andersen undergoing the first 'losing' season of his career to this point, with a 5-7-2 record, the Hurricanes could be looking to flip the Danish netminder after the holiday roster freeze. Andersen, 36, is in the final season of his contract, earning $2.7 million AAV. The team is currently carrying three goaltend...

New York Jets Flight Connections 12/19/25

The New York Jets signed quarterback Hendon Hooker to the practice squad yesterday. Hooker is in just his third season in the NFL, but he will turn 28 years old in less than four weeks. Hooker has thrown nine passes in the NFL. Needless to say this is unlikely to be a signing with significant […]

Laval @ Cleveland recap & highlights: A shaky effort sends the Rocket to a second straight loss

The Laval Rocket left the friendly confines of Place Bell to head on the road in the midst of what was their biggest challenge of the season so far, without Joshua Roy, Alex Belzile, and Laurent Dauphin, who were suspended for Thursday’s game and the rematch on Saturday as well. That meant the top line featured Florian Xhekaj as the centre, flanked by Sammy Blais and Sean Farrell. On defence it was David Reinbacher and Tobie Bisson on the first pairing, with William Trudeau and Josiah Did...

Friday Morning Fly By: Still stumbling

*With Tyson Foerster out for probably the rest of the season, it’s looking like the ripples from that absence will be far reaching. [ BSH ] *You might recall that as recently as Wednesday, we were musing around here that Egor Zamula’s days with the Flyers might be numbered. [ BSH ] *Well, this turned out to be incredibly true, and he found himself on waivers yesterday afternoon. And we’ll see later today if he’s claimed and truly on his way out the door, or if he’ll soon be Phantoms ...

Pens Points: Losers of seven straight

Here are your Pens Points for this Friday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators duked it out in Canada’s capital city on Thursday night.

Lightning offense sputters at home against Kings in 2-1 loss

The cracks were bound to appear at some point. When a team is ravaged by injuries to the extent that the Tampa Bay Lightning have been, the magic wears off eventually. It’s usually nothing drastic, but small little fissures that appear and keep a team from winning. From an overall perspective, the Lightning played fairly well in their 2-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night, but one moment, one little error in judgement, led to the game-deciding goal. The Bolts had the lead ea...
