Edmonton Oilers Linked to Familiar Face In Trade Rumor

The Edmonton Oilers have themselves a struggling player who needs a change of scenery, in Andrew Mangiapane.  The Los Angeles Kings also have a floundering forward, making around the same money ($3.5M to $3.6M) in ex-Oiler Warren Foegele.  Who says no to a one-for-one swap of the 29-year-olds? Foegele for Mangiapane. Dollars are almost equal and both have year left. — Jim Matheson (@jimmathesonnhl) February 9, 2026 Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal thinks it makes sense. As does M...

Interesting Dynamic Between Oilers & Maple Leafs Regarding The Trade Deadline

The Toronto Maple Leafs and Edmonton Oilers don't often trade, but former Maple Leafs generally find themselves in Edmonton sooner or later. A lot have passed through over the last decade and some are still there thriving like Zach Hyman. The West and the East are so different this season that the Oilers are second in their division with 64 points in 58 games and the Maple Leafs have 63 points in 57 games, but Toronto is six points out of a playoff spot. While they have had similar seasons, th...

Maple Leafs Rumors: Team Would Feel Most Comfortable Moving Stolarz

Despite the Toronto Maple Leafs winning three games in a row heading into the Olympic break, they still sit six points back of a playoff spot and it isn't an easy hill to climb with four teams in their way and only 25 games remaining. There isn't a ton of time or games before the trade deadline once the freeze is lifted, so some decisions will have to be made in the short term coming out of the break. Toronto has three goalies and only needs two for next season. If they don't go into the seaso...

Florida Panthers Still Have Sights Set On One Trade Deadline Path

The Florida Panthers are in an unfamiliar place as they sit eight points out of a playoff spot in the East at the Olympic break, and aren't getting Aleksander Barkov back during the regular season, all after making it to the Stanley Cup Final three years in a row. The major injuries didn't help the team and they have been above .500, but so is every other team in the Eastern Conference except for the New York Rangers at this point this season. So the trade deadline is going to be interesting f...

In Retrospect, Sheldon Keefe Was Not The Right Coach For This Team

Before I get into it, let me just say right off the top that I am not absolving others of blame for this New Jersey Devils season spiraling into despair. The general manager, Tom Fitzgerald, deserves an enormous amount of blame and should have been relieved of his duties a long time ago. The players […]
