Along with comedian, podcaster and new author John Cullen, we remember Rob Davison, who had one major moment against a marquee opponent in his very short stint on Long Island.

The Ottawa Senators have not had the season they had hoped and goaltending/team defense has not been up to par, but they aren't out of it just yet and could make a push. Bruce Garrioch said, "Staios wants to be a buyer. If the Senators get strong goaltending down the stretch, then there is little doubt that they can make a push. Selling off assets for draft picks doesn't make sense for this group." The 20 game injury to Brady Tkachuk didn't help the team, but they made it through and are six p...

The New Jersey Devils have not had a good season and have played well below expectation with a 28-27-2 record. The team currently sits 15th in the Eastern Conference with 58 points and are 11 points back of a playoff spot. They have lost three in a row and five of the last six, scoring just two goals in the last three games and 10 goals in the last six. This is with a healthy team minus Luke Hughes and Stefan Noesen. Something has to change for the Devils because as soon as Jack Hughes gets in...

The Olympics offer a brief distraction, but back in New York the real pressure is mounting as Drury prepares for trades that could redefine the Rangers’ direction.
Welcome back to Rules Court, where we’re fixing the NHL, one new rule at a time. Usually, that means considering your suggestions. But occasionally, we like to look elsewhere for inspiration, such as stealing ideas form other leagues . We’re doing that again today, because as you may have heard, there’s an international tournament going on. It’s called the Olympics, and the NHL was kind enough to send its players over for a change. That NHL participation has meant that the rulebook used in the...

Some key pieces of the Flyers are still over in Italy battling for medals. But most of the club has been back in Philadelphia practicing. And after three consecutive days where the team was getting back in the swing of things, assistant coach Todd Reirden says it’s important for some players to have strong finishes. And none of those came to the fore more than winger Matvei Michkov during Thursday’s post-practice presser. Although Reirden spoke in depth about the trio of players called up...
