Toronto injury update as both Nick Robertson and Joe Thornton were skating before practice on Monday, the former with a knee injury and the latter with a fractured rib. That Thornton is skating just 10 days after the rib fracture is a good sign, but I hope he doesn’t rush this back, especially at his [...]

The Anthony DeAngelo issue has come to a head. Big time. The offensive defenseman, who is one of the best in that role in the entire league in terms of creating offense and putting up points, can’t keep his mouth shut and can’t control his temper. Rumor has it that he blamed Alexandar Georgiev for [...]

There were plenty of games to watch on Saturday, most of them at the same time. Let’s start with some surprising news that was announced before the big block of 7 pm ET games. Travis Konecny was made a healthy scratch on Saturday, which is no doubt something that his fantasy owners wouldn’t have expected. [...]

Four of the six I had mentioned saw starts, with each of them earning [...]
