Does Adrian Kempe make sense as a target for the Oilers?

Last week, amidst the Buffalo Sabres’ disastrous start, names like Alex Tuch and Tage Thompson started to pop…

3 Buffalo Sabres Named Trade Candidates

The Buffalo Sabres are still the punchline of the NHL, and it could be time to move one of their big three defencemen. The Sabres are off to a 1-3-0 start this year and could quickly become the first team to have a fire sale this year. Not only on the ice, but there's also a chance both GM and head coach get replaced at some point, which is wild to think considering the circus that's been going on around the organization for the last few years. Recently, Daily Faceoff's Anthony Di Marco poised...

Lane Hutson Feels Cole Caufield Should Make USA's Olympic Team

Get Cole Caufield into the Olympics is what seems to be on the top of Lane Hutson's mind. The two Montreal Canadiens are certainly expected to be in the mix for the Olympic roster and if it was up to Hutson, Caufield would be a lock, and he'd quickly become someone who the team would rely on heavily to score in big moments.  "I think we saw it when (Team USA) went to OT versus Canada. They need someone to score, and in those big moments, that's something (Caufield) can bring," Hutson said...
