Anthony Mantha is making the Penguins decision easy for them
There is not any one player or person that is responsible for the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-0 series deficit. It has been a well-earned, collective group effort that everybody has to own. The Penguins have allowed themselves to get suckered into Philadelphia’s game, there is little discipline, they are not in any way adapting to what […]

Pens Points: Not Great
Needing a win to avoid going down 0-3 in the series, the Pittsburgh Penguins struck first on Wednesday night for their first lead of the series, but three second period goals from the Philadelphia Flyers erased that deficit and the Penguins subsequently came apart at the seams in what turned out to be a 5-2 […]
Juraj Slafkovský picked one hell of a time to level up
As the Montreal Canadiens land in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the second consecutive year, now’s the perfect time to shine the light on the rise of Juraj Slafkovský . But first let’s rewind to Milano Cortina for a sec. Slafkovský didn’t just show up to play at the 2026 Winter Olympics, he made it crystal clear that this was his stage. While Montreal sat idle for a few weeks, Slaf put the hockey world on notice, piling up four goals, leading the team with eight points across six games, an...
Sidney Crosby fumes over controversial call after Flyers’ Game 3 win
Pittsburgh center Sidney Crosby torched the Philadelphia Flyers for the better part of the last two decades. However, he did something on Wednesday night that was a first for him: he was called for an embellishment penalty. And after the Penguins lost 5-2 in Game 3 to the Flyers, and found themselves behind 3-0 in the series, Pittsburgh coach Dan Muse took the time to address the embellishment minor. As did Crosby. Late in the first period, with the faceoff to the right of goaltender Dan ...

‘It’s fine’: Oilers captain Connor McDavid says no cause for concern after Game 2 injury scare

Travis Konecny made the Penguins look like fools during Game 3 win
Travis Konecny has not been showing up on the score sheet in this first round against the Pittsburgh Penguins, but he is doing exactly what he needs to do. The Philadelphia Flyers still live and breathe in rhythm with Konecny on the ice and he is a major reason why they have now earned a 3-0 series lead over their archrivals. If you just looked at a bunch of numbers from Wednesday night’s 5-2 Flyers win in Game 3, and saw that Konecny finished the game with zero goals, zero assists, four ...
Zero Creativity
From what I've gathered, the logo to the left is the logo used by the city of Hamilton, Ontario on its letterheads and on official documents. I have no way of verifying this as I have no official documents from Hamilton, but it seems reasonable to assume that this logo would be the city's chosen graphical representation. Knowing how important a logo is for any business, one would assume that those businesses seeking a new image would aim for a great logo. With the AHL's Bridgeport Islanders mo...

Penguins/Flyers Game 3 Recap: Pens come unglued, lose 5-2, get pushed to verge of a sweep
Pregame The Penguins enter Game 3 with some adjusted forward lines, left wings shuffled all around the first three lines from the start of last game. Otherwise it’s the same, including Stuart Skinner back in net. The Flyers are sticking with what’s been working to this point by using the same players and combos. First […]
Blue Jackets Projected to Lose Key UFA
The Columbus Blue Jackets have some notable free agents on the docket this offseason, and it sounds like they want to bring most of them back. From captain Boone Jenner to newcomers this season in Charlie Coyle and Mason Marchment, to defenseman Erik Gudbranson, they'll have some decisions to make. But according to insider Elliotte Friedman, speaking on NHL Morning Skate on NHL Network Radio on SiriusXM, he projects the Jackets will likely lose at least one of those UFAs—whether th...

NHL Rumors: 3 Offseason Trade Destinations for Flames' Olli Maatta
At the 2026 NHL trade deadline, the Calgary Flames acquired Olli Maatta as part of the deal that sent blueliner MacKenzie Weegar to the Utah Mammoth. While Maatta was primarily dealt to the Flames for salary purposes, he made a big impact for Calgary following the move. In 21 games for the Flames after the trade this campaign, he had two goals and 14 points. With Maatta having such a strong finish to the season, it is fair to wonder if the Flames could look to move the veteran defenseman while...

NHL Rumors: 3 Free-Agency Fits For Canucks' Evander Kane
Evander Kane is not expected to be back with the Vancouver Canucks next season. It is not difficult to understand why, as the Canucks are rebuilding and the 34-year-old Kane struggled this campaign. While Kane had a down year in 2025-26, he should still generate interest from teams in free agency this summer. Due to this, let's look at three teams that he could be a good fit on.
