Winnipeg Jets to Take ‘Big Swings’ This Offseason to Add Multiple Pieces
After winning the Presidents' Trophy last season, it's been a real slog in 2025-26 for the Winnipeg Jets. They've straightened things out a bit of late, and picked themselves up from a 13th-place standing in the Western Conference going into the Olympic Break. They've gone 8-3-4 since then, and are now five points out of a Wild Card berth going down the stretch. It might be a case of too little, too late to salvage this season, but as i nsider David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period te...
Maple Leafs' Morgan Rielly & Oilers' Darnell Nurse Linked to Western Conf. Team in Offseason Trade
The Toronto Maple Leafs would like to reshape their roster this summer, and the team's longest-serving player, Morgan Rielly, could be a casualty if they can get him to waive his no-move. He has four years remaining on his deal with a $7.5M AAV. To a certain extent, the same applies to Darnell Nurse with the Edmonton Oilers . The team is having a frustrating season, and much of the finger-pointing is at the team's blueline. Would the Oilers like to move on from the four more years of Nurse's $...

A lot of the decisions are probably going to be made for them... How (Auston) Matthews looks, what he decides...

NHL Rumors: Two Frontrunners to Be Next Expansion Cities
It's not a matter of if anymore, but of when and where. With the NBA pushing through its own expansion process in Las Vegas and Seattle, and MLB openly discussing adding franchises, the NHL is quietly getting its ducks in a row for the next wave of growth. The league isn't running a formal expansion process, and commissioner Gary Bettman has been careful not to wave a green flag publicly, but multiple insiders are telling us it's coming. David Pagnotta, speaking on The Sheet with J...

Well-Connected ex-NYR Says Connor McDavid Will Ditch Oilers for Rangers
You can tell from his recent comments. Connor McDavid is getting antsy. And Edmonton Oilers fans are getting anxious. With only a two-year extension signed, which begins next season, McDavid could force his way out of Edmonton if things aren't going to his satisfaction, as soon as the summer of 2027. At that point, he'd have one year left on his contract in Edmonton, and either he or the Oilers could initiate the "get something in return before he becomes a UFA" discussions. Given ...

Islanders' Matthew Schaefer Sets Another Absurd NHL Record
At some point you run out of ways to say a kid is doing something no one has ever done before. Tuesday night in New York, Matthew Schaefer played an absurd 31 minutes and 59 seconds against the Chicago Blackhawks , which is the most ice time ever logged by a teenager in NHL history. The New York Islanders lost 4-3, fell out of a playoff spot, and are now tied with the Ottawa Senators for the second wild card in the East. None of that changes what Schaefer did. The 18-ye...
