Blackhawks Recalling Landon Slaggert

André Burakovsky was not at the Blackhawks’ morning skate on Wednesday. Head coach Jeff Blashill indicated he’s a game-time decision. With that in mind — and both Jason Dickinson (who did skate Wednesday morning but isn’t ready to return yet) and Frank Nazar out of the lineup, the Blackhawks need another forward body to fill a lineup. Blashill said after the morning skate that Landon Slaggert will be recalled and go if Burakovsky cannot. Blashill also said Slaggert’s time in Roc...

Lightning recall Boris Katchouk and Scott Sabourin

The reinforcements have arrived. With the Tampa Bay Lightning ailing a bit, the team recalled a couple of veterans from the Syracuse Crunch. Forwards Boris Katchouk and Scott Sabourin caught the plane ride down from the bitter cold to the chilly, but much nicer Tampa weather to help bolster a squad that is a little down right now. With Dominic James definitely missing tonight’s action, and Pontus Holmberg probably out as well, the Bolts needed to add some depth to their bottom-six. Ryan M...

Flyers playing Nic Deslauriers against Oilers is a brutal mistake

The Philadelphia Flyers return to action on Wednesday night with a matchup against the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers suffered a 9-1 home loss to the Avalanche on Saturday night and had to come from behind to beat the Blue Jackets on Monday night. To put it simply, the team that has lost in the Stanley Cup Final in the last two years is struggling mightily right now. They’re without Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, leaving Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to carry even more of the load than they usuall...

Quick bites: Sharks beat Minnesota in OT … again

Not all of the wins for the San Jose Sharks this season are going to be pretty, and the 2-1 overtime win against the Minnesota Wild last night certainly counts as one of the ugly ones. The Wild absolutely dominated the Sharks for most of the game and it was only by sheer luck and strong goaltending by Yaroslav Askarov that the Sharks were capable of competing in the last 10 minutes of the third period. Looking at Natural Stat Trick’s game flow chart in all situations, you can see that the Wild...
