Pittsburgh Penguins’ Egor Chinakhov Continuing to Impress -
When the Pittsburgh Penguins acquired Egor Chinakhov from their divisional rivals, the Columbus Blue Jackets, right before the New Year, it was a move that could’ve easily flown somewhat under the radar. Chinakhov, an underperforming former late first-round pick, was traded for Danton Heinen and draft picks. At the time, it didn’t seem like an […] The post Pittsburgh Penguins’ Egor Chinakhov Continuing to Impress appeared first on HEAVY.

Lyle Odelein Passes Away At 58 -
Earlier today, King Jemison of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announced that former defenseman Lyle Odelein passed away from a heart attack on Friday night. He was 58. Odelein played 16 NHL seasons with the Montreal Canadiens, New Jersey Devils, Phoenix Coyotes, Columbus Blue Jackets, Chicago Blackhawks, Dallas Stars, Florida Panthers, and Pittsburgh Penguins.

He didn’t debut with Montreal until the 1989-90 season, though he spent much of the year with the AHL’s Sherbrooke Canadiens.…

Game #2 Preview & Open Thread: Sabres vs Blackhawks -
Byram Will Not Play in Buffalo Return Unfortunately, there is only one “revenge game” tonight. Former defenseman Bowen Byram will not play for Chicago tonight. Blackhawks coach Jeff Blashill said Byram is tending to a family matter. That means Sabres fans will have to wait for Byram’s first game back at KeyBank Center since Buffalo traded him to Chicago this summer. Jordan Greenway is still expected to be in Chicago’s lineup and will face the Sabres for the first time since the trade. Byram’s absence forces Chicago to reshuffle its defense. Kevin Korchinski and Ethan Del Mastro will both make their season debuts after sitting out the Blackhawks’ first two games. Byram didn’t have the best first game, but I’m sure it will improve. Byram got everything he wanted when he was traded: to be the #1 D-man and a big contract, so “revenge” is a little harsh. Zellweger Is In There is no longer much

Keep Holding On: Blackhawks at Sabres Preview -
The Chicago Blackhawks look to salvage something from their season-opening road trip when they visit the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday night. After what happened on Thursday night in Utah, something is setting the bar pretty low. The Sabres also aren’t off to a great start, either, having lost 6-3 on the road to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, although there were at least some positives for Buffalo after a terrible first period. Twice the Sabres cut the deficit to one in the second period but they never found the equalizer and Columbus eventually put the game away with two goals in the third. The Sabres will be looking to right the ship in their second game, especially since it’ll be their home opener (yes, the Blackhawks will be the opponent in yet another team’s first home game — gross). The Sabres forward group is still led by Tage Thompson, who went a point-per-game last season with 81 points (40 G, 41 A) while
