Steve Lorentz reminded us all that a terrible season for the team you’re on can have lingering effects… Lorentz wasn’t nearly as effective last season as he was before, which has lead to many fans leaving him off of the teams opening roster. However, Lorentz is a good penalty killer, a big body that can … Read more
The next time I make a post it should have actual content. That will be refreshing. Hockey season is just around the corner!!
What say you? Where would you rank Auston Matthews in terms of the best centres in the game? Being in the top 10 isn’t the insult that some make it out to be, considering the fact that we’re talking about the best players in the world, but would you have him closer to the top … Read more
With 5 years left on his $7.75M AAV contract and some young starts starting to push towards the $20M AAV plateau, Knies is certainly entering “steal” territory on this contract.

Has the time to move on from Rielly passed John Chayka by? In my opinion, yes. That’s not to say that GM John Chayka isn’t still trying to move the longest tenured Leaf on the roster, but it is me saying that at this point in the season it’s rare for big contracts to move … Read more
There has been a lot of change over the past couple of days, but one change that could have happened is now off the table, so we’ll speak about that first. Zach Werenski Simply put, it’s best for the Columbus Blue Jackets to hang on to Werenski until at least next summer. His full NMC … Read more
Late last night this tidbit of information hit the waiver wire: By all accounts things between Werenski and the Blue Jackets are becoming “nasty” after Werenski nixed this deal. The reported centre piece of the trade was 24 year old defenseman Thomas Harley, who would have helped fill the major hole on their blueline that … Read more
