The New York Islanders were thrilled in the summer of 2024 when they won the right to land undrafted Russian scorer Maxim Tsyplakov.

The Edmonton Oilers had a very busy morning by making two trades to finally address goaltending. Regardless of how many seem to be feeling and overreacting to the Oilers acquiring Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins , they have also struck a deal with the Nashville Predators to acquire Spencer Stastney, a young defenseman.

A Swedish report has claimed that veteran forward Calle Järnkrok had verbally agreed to return to Brynäs IF next season, a move that would almost certainly end his NHL career.  The news, first reported by Aftonbladet’s Hans Abrahamsson and echoed by Swedish outlet Expressen , suggested Järnkrok was preparing a homecoming once his contract expires after the 2025-26 season.

NHL Rumors: 1 Team Out of Quinn Hughes Sweepstakes

The Boston Bruins are not joining the race for Quinn Hughes, even as half the league circles the Vancouver Canucks star.  According to James Murphy of RG.org , team sources say Boston does not view itself as a realistic fit for a Hughes blockbuster and is instead locked in on adding scoring help up front.  With Charlie McAvoy already anchoring the blue line and limited assets to spend, the Bruins see a top end forward as a far bigger priority than paying the steep price required to l...

We heard before the season that Ryan Reaves wasn't happy with how things ended for him with the Toronto Maple Leafs . Now that he's in town with the San Jose Sharks  for his first game back at Scotiabank Arena against his old squad, he's taking no prisoners—on the ice or off it.  "They basically said that I couldn't play in this league anymore, and I'm back."

4 Players Listed In 'Shocking Possibilities' Tier on New NHL Trade Board

As we get closer to the Christmas roster freeze time on the hockey calendar the trade market hasn't quite ramped up to a frenzy yet (unless you're in Vancouver and your name is Quinn Hughes).  But there's plenty of noise out there about a number of trade candidates, and insider 'Trade Boards' will start to appear with more regularity in the weeks ahead. In the first ESPN Trade Board, from insider Greg Wyshynski , there are four players listed in the 'Shocking Possibilities' Tier:  Jo...

Report: 2 Teams Frustrated With Current Trade Market

The NHL's holiday roster freeze is just over a week away, and while many thought there'd be a slew of trades going down in December, that hasn't been the case at all.

Maple Leafs place Dakota Mermis on IR, recall Henry Thrun

The Toronto Maple Leafs continue to be battered and bruised this season. With a laundry list of players currently on IR, the team has added defenceman Dakota Mermis, who suffered a lower-body injury against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday, and now hits the shelve for what sounds like, a few weeks. The Leafs recalled defenceman Henry Thrun from the AHL's Toronto Marlies, and he's expected to see his first action in blue and white on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks. Mermis suffered the in...

Vancouver Canucks Rejecting Multiple Trade Offers

The Vancouver Canucks are the worst team in the NHL, and president Jim Rutherford and GM Patrik Allvin are open for business. Yes, Quinn Hughes' name is out there, and there's been plenty of interest, but to this point of the process, no team has offered the Canucks what they're looking for. The Canucks want a young top-six centre, they want a top-four defenceman, preferably with top-two potential, and they want at least two other pieces, including one first-round pick, and one top prospect. T...

Center Shortage Makes Two Veterans the Hottest Names on the Market

The center market is thin, and that is great news for Brayden Schenn and Ryan O’Reilly .  As Anthony DiMarco pointed out on TSN Radio in Montreal, Schenn has been in the St. Louis Blues rumor mill going back to last season, yet his name is gaining traction again with the team stuck near the bottom of the standings.  With so few quality centers available, DiMarco believes Schenn should command more than O’Reilly, even if the Nashville Predators try to squeeze every asset they can out ...

Sabres & Oilers Emerging as Trade Partners

The Buffalo Sabres are once again not meeting expectations this season, and there's a very good chance they make some moves, sooner than later. The Sabres will once again be in sell mode and forward Alex Tuch is going to draw serious interest from a number of teams. Tuch, 29, is a pending free agent and is one of the biggest names on the rental market this season. He's owed $4.7 million AAV and owns a five-team no-trade list, that was submitted back in July.

NHLTR Mock Trade: Capitals trade Ryan Leonard in package for Canucks' Quinn Hughes

The NHL trade rumor mill is spinning like crazy these days, and most of the talk is around Vancouver Canucks captain Quinn Hughes.

3 Trade Targets For Dallas Stars on the Blueline

The Dallas Stars will have a little money to play with heading towards the trade deadline. A lot of cash, in fact, if they do as expected, and place Tyler Seguin on Season-Ending LTIR. That frees up the veteran's entire $9.85 million cap hit for the Stars to make use of.  And while most of the talk, and rightfully so, is on how to fill that Seguin void up front, the Stars will once again also look for a defensive upgrade. They picked up Cody Ceci ahead of the deadline last year, and more ...
