It’s the 2025 NHL Draft week (June 27), and as usual, the Chicago Blackhawks are the team to watch. Because they have a lot of draft capital (15 picks in the first three rounds of the next three drafts). They have 10 draft picks in the 2025 draft alone. It would be wise for them…
The Philadelphia Flyers‘ top six is getting a much-needed skill boost with the addition of Trevor Zegras. The 24-year-old has faced some injury struggles recently, sure, but already has multiple 60-point seasons under his belt.

There’s a lot to like about the 2018 first-round pick, but simultaneously, concerns surround the restricted free agent (RFA),…
The Abbotsford Canucks, Vancouver’s farm team in the American Hockey League, are Calder Cup champions. After spotting the host Charlotte Checkers the first two goals on Monday night at Bojangles Coliseum, the Canucks roared back with three unanswered goals, including the winner from Linus Karlsson at 17:19 of the second period. Sammy Blais and Danila…
The Boston Bruins have come to terms either one of their own. They have locked up defenseman Mason Lohrei to a bridge deal. The contract is for two years and has an annual average value (AAV) of $3.2 million. This is good for Lohrei, as he looks to bounce back from a down year, and…
