The Islanders didn’t make major roster changes this offseason, putting the spotlight on Pete DeBoer and what his system can unlock in 2026-27.

The Islanders have promising young defensemen, but that doesn’t mean they should rush Alexander Romanov out the door.

Pete DeBoer's biggest challenge isn't eliminating pressure on the Islanders—it's redistributing it.

The Canadiens have ample left-shot depth on their NHL roster with their top three options all signed for five more years.  But how does this position stack up in their prospect pool?

The Habs made a minor trade on Monday, announcing that they've traded winger Sean Farrell to Anaheim in exchange for winger Sasha Pastujov.

Quality right-shot defencemen are hard to come by which is why the Habs paid big to land Noah Dobson last year.  Meanwhile, they've been trying to stock up their prospect pool in the hopes of getting a player or two from there down the road.

The calendar has flipped to August as we hit the unofficial midpoint of the summer.  By now, we typically have a good sense of where things stand for the Habs but this time around, there are still plenty of questions remaining.

The Habs have taken care of another one of their restricted free agents.  The team announced on Monday that they've signed defenceman Maksymilian Szuber to a one-year, two-way contract.

Starting the first season of his eight-year deal, expectations were a little higher for Juraj Slafkovsky in 2025-26. Fortunately for him and the Habs, he was able to live up to them with a career year. Does he have another one in store for 2026-27?

On top of trying to fill a longstanding need in the form of a second offensive centre, the Habs are also trying to find a winger to fill a role as well.  Their prospect pool provides hope that eventually, the answer could come from within.

Amid reports that Vinzenz Rohrer was hoping to stay in Switzerland for the upcoming season, he will get his wish.  The Habs announced Sunday that they've loaned the forward to EV Zug for the 2026-27 campaign.

After acquiring him earlier this month, the Habs have signed winger Sasha Pastujov to a one-year, two-way contract, per a team announcement on Thursday.

Welcome to the second week of August, Blackhawks fans! There will be kids (and teachers) heading back to school this week. There will be football and cross country and soccer and golf (and whatever other sports happen in the fall) practices happening. Life is starting to turn the page to the fall, which means were’ that much closer to putting on jeans and a sweatshirt and heading to the rink to see hockey. And I’m here for that! Ben Pope gav

The beauty of doing this job as long as I have is the ability to employ some hindsight. I’ve been writing about the Blackhawks long enough that I can remember (and admit to being wrong about) players like Dylan Olsen, Adam Clendening, Ian Mitchell, Chris Calnan and Radovan Bondra. The Jeremy Morin Era of Blackhawks prospects was real, folks. And it wasn’t pretty. We’ve spent most of the past four years here talking about Blackhawks prospects and the youth movemen

Welcome to the long days of summer, Blackhawks fans. I’ve been deep in my offseason bag lately, and came across a nugget that just felt too fun to not share. Some fans might remember the Blackhawks and Kings made a big trade at the 1984 NHL Draft so the Hawks could move up from pick No. 6 to No. 3 and keep

Let’s talk about some true unicorns in Blackhawks history. Guys who could do it… all? Players who scored goals enough to be a legit offensive threat and still handled their business on the ice. The old school power forward feels like a bit of a dinosaur in today’s NHL. It’s been more than 30 years since the Blackhawks had a player score at least 30 goals and pile up at least 100 penalty minutes. The last time: Jeremy Roenick and

We’ve talked a lot about the Blackhawks’ blue line over the past few weeks here. The front office and coaches have talked about building the team from the back forward. Kyle Davidson used a couple first-round picks on Sam Rinzel and then Artyom Levshunov to be big pieces on the back, but the group was so young after the trade deadline there were viable concerns about the makeup. Which is why Davidson added Bowen Byram

My guy Charlie Roumeliotis tweeted a lengthy thought on Wednesday afternoon in which he expressed optimism that the Blackhawks have a viable path to a playoff-caliber offense. I screengrabbed it because embedding it cut off too much.

A lot of questions recently in the comments here and on social media about the future of Kevin Korchinski with the Blackhawks, so a question from me: what happens if he out-performs Sam Rinzel in training camp? I don’t think that’s a crazy potential scenario; it could happen. Ian Cole was brought in because he has experience playing both sides, and Korchinski spent a fair amount of time on the right side in Rockford last year.
