Bottom Six Minutes: Team effort snaps Habs’ losing streak

Losers of five straight, and about to embark on a tough three-game road trip out west, the Montreal Canadiens needed something positive to come from a Saturday night tilt with the Toronto Maple Leafs at the Bell Centre. They got exactly what they needed out of that game, coming together for a very strong showing in a 5-2 win, allowing them to hit the road with some confidence this week. It was a dominant effort from top to bottom, and came at a time when the team sorely needed to prove to...

Maple Leafs' Jake McCabe injured vs. Canadiens

Things are going from bad to worse for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Already hammered by the injury bug heading in, the Leafs lost defenceman Jake McCabe to injury on Saturday night in Montreal against the Canadiens. McCabe was injured with an upper-body injury, after taking a puck in the face in the second period. From a certain angle on the telecast, it appeared the puck hit the 32-year-old defenceman right in the jaw, leaving many wondering if he potentially broke his jaw on the play. Through 21...

Go Wait in the Car: Blackhawks vs. Avalanche Preview

The top team in the NHL standings will be on the ice at the United Center this evening, as the Blackhawks host the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday night. The Avalanche are burying opponents on a nearly nightly basis, with just one regulation loss in their first 21 games (15-1-5). They enter this game on an 8-game winning streak, most recently beating the Nashville Predators 3-0 on the road on Saturday night, which means the possibility of heavy legs for the visitors does exist. Still, this t...

Blackhawks Celebrate the OG American Arena, the Chicago Stadium, in New Docuseries Episode

Sunday night’s game starts the “second chapter” of the Blackhawks’ Centennial celebration. With that, they released the second episode of their Centennial docuseries, titled “The Madhouse.” It celebrates the amazing atmosphere at the Chicago Stadium. Narrated by Eddie Olczyk, they talk about the anthem tradition (with an appearance from Wayne Messmer) and the history of the old barn. They did a great job. This will stir your heart and make your ears ring a little if you were ever fortunat...

Matvei Michkov: The first 100 games

Matvei Michkov was still supposed to be playing in the KHL this season. At least, that was the expectation for him when the Flyers drafted him in the first round (seventh overall) in the 2023 NHL Draft. There was speculation he could possibly get across the pond a year earlier than expected if the KHL team he was playing for let him go and released him prior to his contract ending. But the Flyers brass were there front and center when Michkov arrived in the U.S. He was here to start his career...

Jets fans agree it was time for a quarterback change

This week the New York Jets made a change at quarterback. Veteran signal caller Tyrod Taylor takes over in the starting lineup for struggling Justin Fields. Fields moves to the bench. In our SB Nation Reacts survey, we asked Jets fans whether they agree with the decision to sit Fields down. The results were unsurprisingly […]

Predators Trade Rumors: 2 Teams Linked To Steven Stamkos

The Nashville Predators are open for business and that gives the assumption that nearly everyone is available for trade. Steven Stamkos is more of an obvious one if the Predators can get a deal done to trade him. He has not been the player the team had imagined when signing him to a four-year, $8 million AAV deal. Stamkos has been incredibly streaky, hasn't fit in Nashville, and hasn't been the player the team needed to help get them to the playoffs and contend. The contract won't be that easy...

Good morning, folks… We are sparse on Rangers news this morning. A blog called Yanks Go Yard offers up a hypothetical trade package for Corey Seager, if you’re into that sort of thing. Over at SNY, John Harper says the Mets should trade to trade for Corey Seager. David Laurila has his Sunday Notes column […]

Sabres' Luukkonen Linked To Surprising Team

The Buffalo Sabres have too many goaltenders, plain and simple. The team is holding three on their NHL roster, which includes Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, Alex Lyon, and Colten Ellis, but also have Devon Levi and Alexandar Georgiev in the AHL. With where the Sabres are in the standings, at least one of them is going to be on the move this season, given the desperation in net by some teams around the league. Who makes the most sense to move is Lyon, but it's Luukkonen who has been linked to a surprisi...

3 St. Louis Blues Untouchables Amidst Bad Season

The St. Louis Blues are a bottom-5 team in the NHL, and it will take quite a bit for them to turn things around. They are without true superstars and have goaltending that has been questionable for years. Some things are going to change this season, so some untouchables and players they don't want to trade have been reported or rumored. Frank Seravalli said, "There's a few untouchables, maybe three. I'd say that includes (Jake) Neighbours, (Dylan) Holloway, and probably I'd guess...(Colton) Pa...

Flyers’ 3 Stars of the Week: Foerster helps make history, Vladar remains a wall

With just two games on the schedule, it looked as if this might be a bit of a quiet week for the Flyers. But boy was that not the case. Dan Vladar bounced back in a big way after a tough outing in Dallas, they made history with three quick goals, and they may have found a new defensive pairing. With an overtime win against St. Louis and a regulation win — yes, a regulation win — against New Jersey, they finished the week with a perfect 2-0 record. With that, let’s take a look at the standouts....

The Minnesota Wild Are A Team Of Russian Nesting Dolls

Every hockey team strives for depth in its lineup. The Minnesota Wild have struggled with lineup depth in the past and are missing most of the centers they started the season with. Somehow, the Wild are still one of the hottest teams in the league right now, and part of that might be the fact that s...

Muse, Dubas face critical point of the season

Following a wonderful October start where the Penguins shocked all by playing so well, November has ended up becoming a reality check. Pittsburgh is just 2-4-3 this calendar month, the second worst in the NHL in points and points percentage. That’s erased all the gains their 8-2-2 start provided. Coach Dan Muse can feel it, […]
