The Toronto Maple Leafs find themselves in a very tough situation this season. There are questions regarding where their season should go. If the team should see where the talent takes them and add some depth, or if they should go out and try and add key pieces to help win the Stanley Cup. Many
Trade Deadline
The Toronto Maple Leafs are hoping they can make it back to the postseason after another season of disappointment in their 2022-23 campaign. At the time of this article, they sit tied for the first wild card spot in the Eastern Conference with the Detroit Red Wings, but luckily they have games in hand on
The New York Rangers have entered the All-Star Break in a strong position as they find themselves atop the Metropolitan Division with a two-point gap on the second-place Carolina Hurricanes. While the All-Star Weekend wasn’t expected to be busy as teams take a break and try to get refreshed for the second half of the
As the trade deadline approaches, the New York Islanders are in a tough position. Ideally, the front office would probably like to buy, but they aren’t in a playoff position currently. If the Islanders choose to sell, it could cash in some assets on center Brock Nelson. Related: Islanders’ Next Stretch Could Lead to More
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
Following the holiday break, the Detroit Red Wings opted to deploy David Perron on the first line alongside Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond. The results have not been pretty – six goals for, 11 against, and a 35.79 percent expected goals share at even strength. During the Philadelphia Flyers game on Jan. 25, the Red
As the Buffalo Sabres continue to grow as a team and develop the young talent that they have in their prospect pool, the reality is that they will need to make roster space to actually use them. This means shedding both older players, and the cap hit that comes with them, and the player at
The Vancouver Canucks have made another big trade during All-Star Break. Last year on Jan. 30, they sent Bo Horvat to the New York Islanders. A year and a day after that trade, they are busy again making waves in the hockey world. They have acquired Elias Lindholm from the Calgary Flames for Andrei Kuzmenko,
The Montreal Canadiens are headed for another season of losing players at the trade deadline (TDL). Last season, they could have sold a few, but due to injuries and poor play, the returns were not worth the effort to trade the available players. This season, the team is better positioned to move players for high-quality
While we’re still a ways away from the NHL trade deadline in early March, it’s still not too early to begin thinking about 2024 unrestricted free agents to keep an eye on as trade targets throughout the 2023-24 season. It’s a stacked UFA class for 2024, and a few pending UFAs who play on teams
It’s been an arms race in the Eastern Conference but not so much in the West. The Vegas Golden Knights did acquire Ivan Barbashev from the St. Louis Blues, but for the most part, Western Conference teams have been the sellers. At least one team has stepped up, though. The Dallas Stars acquired Evgenii Dadonov from the
James van Riemsdyk and Justin Braun, pending unrestricted free agents (UFAs) who seemed the most likely to be moved at the trade deadline, are still members of the Philadelphia Flyers organization. Players with term on their deals whose names surfaced in rumors were Kevin Hayes and Ivan Provorov, and they could have provided a bigger
The 2023 Trade Deadline is in the rearview mirror and it was one of the busiest in recent seasons, especially for the contending teams in the Eastern Conference. The New York Rangers acquired Patrick Kane, the New Jersey Devils added Timo Meier, the Boston Bruins acquired Tyler Bertuzzi, and the Toronto Maple Leafs were arguably
The Detroit Red Wings have had an interesting month to say the least. After storming back into the playoff race with an impressive run of play in February, they had no answer for the Ottawa Senators, losing two games in two nights against one of their biggest competitors in the standings. Clearly General Manager Steve
The 2023 NHL Trade Deadline was an interesting one, with big-name players coming off the board left and right in the early stages. Despite that fascinating movement of star players well before deadline day, the final day (a Friday this year) was a strange one without a real blockbuster deal to be found. Nonetheless, the
Tampa Bay Lightning general manager Julien BriseBois made a few deals by the trade deadline, even though salary cap issues hampered him. Tanner Jeannot was acquired from the Nashville Predators, while Michael Eyssimont has found his third team this season, courtesy of the San Jose Sharks. In acquiring these two players, the Lightning were able
Though plenty of Nashville Predators fans have soured on David Poile in recent years, the veteran general manager reminded everyone of just how good he can be in what was his final trade deadline in his current role. The 73-year-old, who serves as president of hockey ops as well as GM of the Predators, announced
