3 Roles That Your Team Will Overpay for at the Deadline

3 Roles That Your Team Will Overpay for at the Deadline

February 25th, 2016 It happens almost every single trade deadline. A team is hurting badly in one area of the game.

It almost never fails. We may have already seen...

Revisiting the Stars Erik Cole Trade Nearly a Year Later

February 14th, 2016 Just over a year ago, the NHL Trade Deadline was pretty quiet for the Dallas Stars. They were fighting desperately to stay in the playoff race. Therefore, it was a bit of let down when the Stars didn't acquire any immediate help. Instead they traded a reliable veteran forward who was having one of the best seasons of his career. The...
Hurricanes Could Get Scoring Help From Familiar Faces

Hurricanes Could Get Scoring Help From Familiar Faces

July 28th, 2015 When the Carolina Hurricanes removed former general manager Jim Rutherford from his position, Canes fans everywhere breathed a sigh of relief.

Trade Analysis: Ville Leino

Trade Analysis: Ville Leino

July 20th, 2015 The story behind Ville Leino’s NHL run is an interesting one. In 2008, the 24-year-old Leino was playing for Jokerit of the Finnish Elite League. He lead the team in scoring with 77 points in 55 games, was second in the league for scoring, and won the league’s MVP award, The Oskanen Award. His play was enough for him to be wooed by...

Deadline Acquisitions Paying Dividends for Detroit

March 15th, 2015 It would be an understatement to say that the month of March has been less than kind to the Detroit Red Wings. The team has a 3-4-0 record thus far, including an embarrassing 7-2 loss at the hands of the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday afternoon. Captain Henrik Zetterberg called out his team after the game: "I think it's almost that...

Erik Cole: the New Justin Abdelkader

Erik Cole: the New Justin Abdelkader

March 4th, 2015 The Hockey Writers' Tom Mitsos already touched on how the Detroit Red Wings acquired LW Erik Cole and a conditional 2015 third-round pick from the Dallas Stars in exchange for prospects Mattias Backman, Mattias Janmark and a 2015 second-round pick. But let's take a deeper look at Cole as a Red Wing. While Cole isn’t considered a...

Best Trade Deadline Rental Still Available

Best Trade Deadline Rental Still Available

March 1st, 2015 As has been the case in recent years, the closer we get to the NHL trade deadline (Mon. 3pm), the fewer gems remain available.  After much anticipation, many of the bigger names have come off the board.  Evander Kane started things off back on February 11th (seems so long ago), and more recently Franson, Sekera, Timonen, Clarkson and...
