At the end of their season, the Pittsburgh Penguins showed that they have the potential to be a serious contender in 2024-25. However, they still have a lot of work to do this summer. There are a few different areas in need of help, but perhaps the biggest focus should be on the bottom six.

A year ago, hardly anything was going right for the Philadelphia Flyers. The team was well on its way to a third straight playoff miss, and apathy among the fanbase was running high. But any hockey fan can get excited for the trade deadline. Even the most depressing teams can make progress toward returning to
In today’s NHL news and rumors, the Edmonton Oilers are now said to be one of the teams interested in defenseman Chris Tanev. Add them to the list, which includes at least five or six teams. Meanwhile, are the Vancouver Canucks out of the running for Tanev? Could they be looking at Phil Kessel? The
The past 48 hours have been an interesting period for fans of the Edmonton Oilers. As the NHL Trade Deadline creeps closer, the Oilers are being linked to multiple names and players who have just sort of come out of nowhere. These are names that have been in the rumor mill, but for the most
Although the Philadelphia Flyers are currently in a playoff spot, they will be sellers at the trade deadline. We already knew this, but head coach John Tortorella also made it abundantly clear that this is the team’s reality. He is hoping the Flyers will continue to have a solid campaign after the deadline, but his
The Edmonton Oilers are on a roll and are looking like a serious contender right now. They are going to add more pieces before the trade deadline, but there seems to still be questions about whether that will come in the form of a top-six forward, top-four right-shot defenceman, or a backup goaltender. I believe
The Edmonton Oilers want to be buyers at this season’s NHL Trade Deadline. They’ll have to be cautious about disrupting team chemistry or where they spend their money, but if they can make an upgrade, the team will be looking to do so. The problem is, the market is already starting to establish itself and
The Edmonton Oilers will likely be looking to bolster their roster in hopes of making a deep run into the playoffs this season after several failed attempts at winning a Stanley Cup. In the previous two seasons, they have been eliminated by the team that went on to win the Stanley Cup — the Colorado
Last offseason, Frank Seravalli reported that the Philadelphia Flyers turned down a 1st and 2nd round pick from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for Scott Laughton. At first, this would seem like a ridiculous decision for a team that had recently admitted to being in a rebuild to make. Laughton had just turned 29
Even after acquiring Nikita Zadorov from the Calgary Flames, the Vancouver Canucks are still in the market for another defenceman to shore up their blue line. Ethan Bear was the leading candidate to fill that role, but a recent bidding war between the Washington Capitals, Toronto Maple Leafs, Pittsburgh Penguins, and New Jersey Devils has
The Philadelphia Flyers are off to a solid start just over a quarter through the 2023-24 season, but their status as a rebuilder might make some hesitant to call their early success legitimate. Through their first 10 games from the 2020-21 season through the 2022-23 season, they had a combined record of 18-7-5, but an
An apparent candidate for the best move the Philadelphia Flyers made in the offseason was acquiring defenseman Sean Walker from the Los Angeles Kings. In a three-way trade that was meant to get the Flyers started in their rebuild by sending off veteran Ivan Provorov, their defense has arguably been better than what it was
The Philadelphia Flyers have had some solid individual performances in the early stages of their 2023-24 season. With them being in a rebuild, there are a few veterans that could be traded away by the time the trade deadline hits. Who could those players be, and what might their value look like? Cam Atkinson Cam
The Stanley Cup Final may still be ongoing, but we have our first big offseason trade. Earlier this afternoon, the Philadelphia Flyers, Columbus Blue Jackets and Los Angeles Kings joined up for a three-team deal that sent Ivan Provorov to the Blue Jackets, with Sean Walker and Cal Petersen going to the Flyers. Here are the
The Washington Capitals are a team to keep an eye on leading up to the NHL’s trade deadline. The Capitals currently have a number of injured players on the shelve, including Tom Wilson and Niklas Backstrom. When these veterans are ready to return to the lineup, the Capitals are expected to make a couple of

The 2020-21 season will be anything but traditional. The NHL still doesn’t know exactly what the season will look like, so fans should expect the unexpected. Last season, the Los Angeles Kings finished with a record of 29-35-6, totaling 64 points, 28th in the league. The team wasn’t even close to a playoff spot last
On September 11, 2020, the Los Angeles Kings signed Sean Walker to a four-year contract extension. The contract is worth $10.6 million; meaning it carries a cap hit and AAV (Average Annual Value) of $2,625,000. This is quite a low cap hit. With this contract lasting for four more years, it could turn out to
