He turned down a $25 million opportunity a year ago to take the reins of the Chicago Blackhawks, prefering to stay in Denver.

We’re in the home stretch, folks, and with three games left in the season, the Sharks wrap things up on the road. While still not “officially” out of the playoff race, it’s out of the Sharks’ hands. San Jose would have to win out AND there would have to be a major collapse by the teams in front of the Sharks for San Jose to make the playoffs. So, we’re watching the Tankathon standings again. That means this matchup with the Nashville Predators has a much different meaning than it did a week or...

They've started the rebuild process with the blockbuster Quinn Hughes trade and moving out a few other pieces, but there's one huge outstanding issue to deal with this summer. It's the $92.8 million elephant in the room, called Elias Pettersson. The one-time 100-point m...
