Matte, Lien and Boettiger named to NHL Central Scouting Preliminary Players to Watch list -KELOWNA, BC – Three Kelowna Rockets have been named to NHL Central Scouting’s Preliminary Players to Watch list for the 2027 NHL Draft. Forwards William Matte and Colton Lien and goaltender Harrison Boettiger were each recognized on the list, released Monday. Matte, a 17-year-old forward from Calgary, Alberta, brings a rare combination of size and skill to the Rockets lineup. Standing 6-foot-7 and 216 pounds, the left-shot forward came up through the Calgary NW Flames program before joining Kelowna. Matte has two points (1G, 1A) in eight games this season. His breakout came in the Rockets’ 10-2 win over Swift Current on October 7, when he scored his first goal of the season on a rebound and added an assist on Jaxon Kehrig’s goal, earning third-star honours. One of the tallest players on Central Scouting’s list, Matte gives NHL scouts a unique frame to follow as he develops through his draft season. Colton Lien, a 17-year-o

RECAP: Giants Rally in Third Again, but Fall in Shootout as Six-Game Win Streak Ends -
Kamloops, B.C. – The Vancouver Giants came back from a multi-goal third-period deficit for the second straight game but ended up losing 4-3 in a shootout on Friday night to the Kamloops Blazers at the Sandman Centre. The Giants' six-game winning streak comes to an end, though the team still sits in first place in the B.C. Division with an 8-2-1-2 record. Kamloops improves to 7-3-2-0. After struggling the last three games, Vancouver's power play came alive on Friday, going 3-for-5.

Too Soft? Byram Skating, Intriguing Visitors, Waiver Interest, and Other Blackhawks Bullets - The Blackhawks took an early lead against Montreal last night and the Canadiens immediately started grabbing, whacking, hitting, shoving and slashing the Hawks all over the ice. And it worked. That’s been the painfully clear book on the Blackhawks this season: Chicago’s speed can be a problem, but they can get bullied. When they get pushed around, they lose focus — and the puck. And when the Blackhawks’ power play is ineffective like last night (0 for 5 is ineffective in my opinion), taking penalties to get in an extra hit isn’t a big deal because the Hawks aren’t going to make their opponent pay for the infraction.

MOOSE JAW, Sask. - Griffin Darby, one of this season’s new additions to the Warriors blueline, is settling into his game as the season progresses. “When I found out [about the trade], I was really excited. I’m only an hour and a half from home now,” said Darby. “Going into a new team, you’re nervous, trying to show your game a bit; in the room too, you’re just sitting there looking for guys to talk to, but [having Petersen and Nagel, who I knew already] made that easier.” Darby, a product of Swift Current, Saskatchewan, was acquired from the Portland Winterhawks last summer. So far on the season, Darby has two assists and nine penalty minutes, including picking up his first fight as a member of the Moose Jaw Warriors earlier this week against the Swift Current Broncos. “[I want] to keep providing offence; that’s always someth

The Blackhawks got Sunday off to get ready for what could/should be a tough week of practices. After playing a tough, heavy slate to begin their 2026-27 season, the Hawks get a bye week with nothing on the schedule until the Montreal Canadiens visit the United Center on Friday. With a slow week, at least the Bears play on Thursday night to break things up for us a bit… right? We’ll still be at practice every day (except Wednesday — no practice) and look forward to an Original Six matchup at the end of the week. Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog dropped by to rip some packs with the King of the Kards and shared an incredible personal story (and photo) of him coaching Connor Bedard when the Blackhawks’ captain was eight years old.
bleachernation.comNot There Yet, Frondell’s TOI, Korchinski’s Seat, Prospect Highlights, and Other Blackhawks Bullets -
My biggest takeaway from the past week boils down to a pretty simple reality: the Blackhawks can compete with the middle third of the NHL right now. They can beat some good teams; they’ve skated with and defeated the Blues, Penguins and Jets. All three of those teams is considered a playoff contender by most people. But the upper tier of teams — the Vegas, Dallas, Utah tier — is going to be a problem. The Blackhawks played two good games and earned wins against the Penguins and Jets, but presented very little the Stars had to worry about on Saturday night. Last night’s game was a veteran Dallas team putting on a clinic at the expense of the Blackhawks. Hopefully the Hawks take that tape and learn from it. The

oursportscentral.comRebels legend Mathew Dumba retires after 13 seasons in the NHL -
By Cami Kepke - Decorated defenceman and King Clancy Memorial Trophy winner Mathew Dumba is hanging up his skates after 13 seasons in the NHL, the NHL Players' Association announced Friday. The 32-year-old suited up for five clubs over the course of his NHL career, but his journey to the highest level of hockey began in his home province of Alberta. Dumba, from Calgary, Alta., was selected by the Red Deer Rebels with the fourth overall pick in the 2009 WHL Prospects Draft. Notably, the top five selections from that draft all went on to play in the NHL, including Stanley Cup champions Derrick Pouliot and Chandler Stephenson and Toronto Maple Leafs alternate captain Morgan Rielly. As a 15-year-old, Dumba netted a pair of assists in six call-up appearances and saw limited ice in two playoff games, but burst onto the scene in his rookie campaign in 2010-11. The 6-foot, 182-pound defenceman scored Red Deer's first goal of the season and cruised to a 26-point (15G-11A)

En tant que joueur, il a porté le gilet des Eagles du Cap-Breton, l'équipe de sa ville natale, pendant deux saisons, avant de terminer sa carrière chez ses anciens rivaux, les Mooseheads de Halifax. Il a passé plusieurs années à la fois dans le développement des affaires et dans le domaine du recrutement. Et c’est cette expérience très complète qui l’a conduit à son poste actuel de responsable des opérations hockey et du recrutement chez les Mooseheads.

As a player, he wore the sweater of his hometown Cape Breton Eagles for two seasons – until he closed out his career with his former rivals, the Halifax Mooseheads. He’s spent several years within both the Business Development and Scouting and Recruitment sides of the game. And it’s that well-rounded background that has led him to his current role as Manager of Hockey Operations & Recruitment with the Mooseheads. After four seasons in the ‘Q’, followed by another four at St. Francis Xavier University, where he earned his business degree, Cuzner, who currently resides in Halifax with, as he puts it, “my beautiful girlfriend and her awesome dog”, took a look around and realized rather quickly where he wanted to go next. “I saw a lot of my friends getting into careers in sales, or finance, or as lawyers,” Cuzner recalls.

oursportscentral.comHome Opener Coming, RFAs, Roobroeck’s Hot Start, and Other Blackhawks Bullets -
Yes, the Blackhawks’ season-opening road trip went about as poorly as possible. Yeah, they were more competitive in Buffalo — even without their No. 1 defenseman available. But they lost all three games, looked a hot mess defensively and generated almost no offense in the first two games of the trip. Now, the Hawks come home for a practice late Monday morning before hosting the St. Louis Blues to start the home schedule. It will be more than just another Blackhawks home opener on Tuesday night. It will be the return of Patrick Kane to the ice in the correct jersey. I was at his first game back — in a Detroit Red Wings sweater — and it was one of the more incredible hockey games I have ever attended. From the ceremony celebrating Chris Chelios before the game to Kane ending it in overtime and receiving a huge ovation, the entire night was surreal. This won’t be surreal.
