He was ranked No. 25 on Brownlee’s original list. Championship teams like the 1984, 1985, and 1987 Edmonton Oilers cannot…

4 Trade Targets That Make Sense For Penguins

The Pittsburgh Penguins accomplished two things this past season: Getting Sidney Crosby another run at the Stanley Cup playoffs (though it was a short run), while continuing their search for younger pieces for the future (see: Chinakhov, Egor).  GM Kyle Dubas will continue to try to straddle that delicate line again this summer. And to that end, Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now has suggested four young players that Dubas can try to acquire over the next couple of months. We'll start...

Report: Oilers Linked To Sabres Ukka-Pekka Luukkonen

  With the Buffalo Sabres out of playoff contention, general manager Jarmo Kekalainen will have to reassess the state of his team.  Running hot near the end of the season, the Sabres had an aura of invincibility that faded once they met the Montreal Canadiens in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  UPL played six-games in the playoffs for the Sabres, and put in his best effort against his competitors but finished the postseason with 3.18 goals-against average, and an ....

Sabres Plans for Pending RFA Zach Benson Coming Into Focus

The Buffalo Sabres made a terrific Cinderella run this season. Escaping from 14 straight years in the non-playoff wilderness, they broke out big-time with a first-place finish in the Atlantic Division and an exciting playoff run that ended in a Game 7 overtime thriller (albeit, a heartbreaking defeat).  Most would agree that one player who did as much for his future with this run as anyone is 21-year-old Zach Benson. The tenacious two-way winger had a breakthrough season—especially down t...

Should the Oilers target young goalies Cossa or Levi?

The position group under the most scrutiny for the Edmonton Oilers heading into the off-season is goaltending.  What else is new?  Tristan Jarry has two seasons left on his contract, and it seems unlikely the veteran netminder will be sold off to free up cap space, his value being what it is. The Oilers could look…

With Boone Jenner On His Way Out, Is Charlie Coyle Blue Jackets Next Captain?

  The Columbus Blue Jackets general manager, Don Waddell, thought he did his best to construct a roster that would make it to the Stanley Cup playoffs. But the team fell from contention at the end of the season, forfeiting seven of their last ten games (2-7-1).  Head coach Rick Bowness' end-of-season criticism for his players' lack of execution reverberated throughout the media. While Charlie Coyle took the critique with humility .  “I love working with Rick,” Coyle said. “Would...

Oilers prospect Maxim Berezkin wins second Gagarin Cup

It appears that the Edmonton Oilers are going to get some forward depth from overseas. On Thursday, Oilers prospect Maxim Berezkin (also stylized as Maxim Beryozkin or Maksim Berezkin) lifted the Gagarin Cup for the second consecutive season, helping the Kontinental Hockey League’s Yaroslavl Lokomotiv defeat the Kazan Ak Bars in the finals. It’s been…
