The Montreal Canadiens’ rebuild under general manager (GM) Kent Hughes has come in waves. The 2022 NHL Entry Draft class has begun to take on pivotal roles, with Juraj Slafkovsky and Lane Hutson showing their potential. Rather than rushing the process with short-term fixes, management has leaned heavily on internal development and patience.   Related: Canadiens’ Third Line Is Becoming a…

Philadelphia Flyers winger Owen Tippett recently had another impressive performance. In a system that prioritizes preventing rush chances, his speed and ability to create in transition have been a godsend. On March 11, he recorded a goal and an assist in a 4–1 victory against the Washington Capitals. On the season, Tippett is up to…
