Can Korpisalo Lead the Senators to the Playoffs?

There are a lot of high expectations for the Ottawa Senators going into the season, and with good reason. For starters, this team can put the puck in the net. With the likes of Tim Stutzle, Brady Tkachuk, Claude Giroux, Drake Batherson, and newcomer Vladimir Tarasenko, the puck should have no problem going in the […]

NHL: 5 Teams Heading Strong Into the Regular Season

This NHL preseason has been an interesting one so far. Surprisingly, a lot of the games have had close intensity to regular season games. Although many may argue that it is just preseason and, therefore, doesn’t matter, these games are a nice guide to see how players are performing and give young players a chance […]

Picking a Captain for Every NHL Team Without One

Bargain Bin: Free Agency, PWHPA, NHL Offseason

Been a bit of a second since I’ve done a Bargain Bin. With the chaotic week of the NHL awards, two days of the NHL Draft in Nashville, and then Free Agency, it took a ton of my focus away. Otherwise, this Bargain Bin is jam-packed with news, rumors, opinions, and more. Let’s get into […]

Rangers and Gallant Agree to Part Ways

What a strange two years this has been for the New York Rangers. Last year, the team came within two wins of reaching the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2014. This was after a regular season in which they were the seventh-best team in the league, thanks to a 52-24-6 record and […]
