I'll Read The Recaps
Congratualtions to the city of Buffalo and the Buffalo Sabres on hosting the 2026 NHL Entry Draft. I'm not watching the event tonight because I'm working, but let's be honest in saying that it's hardly "must-see TV". Yes, there will always be a few surprises, but the analyses of these players have been happening since they were twelve. There's nothing new to know about these players, so it's strictly up to the teams to make the selections they want. It was no surprise when Gavin McKenna wen...

The NFL, for example, saw its media partners generate a combined $5.87 billion in revenue with $5.19 billion of that total coming from television. The NHL likes to remind everyone of their successes on television when it comes to money and viewers whenever it can, but what about the smaller leagues? Do they do as well as everyone else? That might be a question worth examining after readin...

NHL Draft: 19 Current, Incoming College Players Taken in 1st Round
Nineteen current and incoming college hockey players were selected in the first round of the NHL Draft, held Friday in Buffalo, a number that obliterates the former record of 11.Twelve of the 19 played in Major Junior last year, a number that increases to 14 if you include Gavin McKenna and Keaton Verhoeff, who played Major Junior two seasons ago. As expected, McKenna, who played at Penn State last...

Oilers miss out as Sebastian Cossa traded to Utah Mammoth
A goaltender the Edmonton Oilers were targeting is now off the board. During Day 1 of the 2026 NHL draft, the Detroit Red Wings sent netminder Sebastian Cossa to the Utah Mammoth for the 23rd overall pick. Funnily enough, that pick was used to select a teammate of Oilers prospect Tommy Lafrenière, JP Hurlbert. Cossa…
