Welcome to September, Hockey World! This is the month the fun returns! This afternoon I will begin team previews full force with a bit of a twist. But first, I will always post rumors as they happen, and there is a good one this morning... McAvoy and Brandon Carlo Possibly Traded? There are...
On the 2019-20 Montreal Canadiens…. The story has to start here with the 2018-19 Montreal Canadiens and the return of Carey Price to elite status. And yet that wasn’t the real surprise story of last year, that was the offense...5 on 5 versus on the power play. Five on five the Canadiens wer...
The time has come where this has to at least be discussed...The Leafs internal frustration is VERY real I am told and while an offer sheet for Marner really forces a team to give up too much for a still young forward, a trade could be explored. At some point, it has to be explored. So you know t...
First off....thanks to all who placed offers yesterday for Mitch Marner. Love the conversations ...I am going through the many comments, emails, and tweets I got...but first... Rantanen and Laine deals? I am told both players reps are talking with their teams and that there is more progress...
The San Jose Sharks chose not to bring back veteran Patrick Marleau after two years in Toronto, but have re-signed center Joe Thornton to a one-year, $2 Million contract. Thornton, 40, had 51 points in the regular season and 10 points in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and still effective in spite of losi...
There continues to be a logjam with the group of unsigned young restricted free agents less than a week before the opening of training camp, but the four-year, $16.2 Million contract that Jake Gsrdiner signed with Carolina on Friday may put things in motion in the defensive market. The Hurricane...
Hearing that there is a chance the Flyers and Provorov camp could avoid a camp holdout via a one year bridge deal and then revisiting an extension next summer. The Provorov side would have way more leverage if he has a strong season because he'll be arbitration eligible for the first time next summe...

A former player just texted me “ Marner Situation needs to be taken over by Mitch.” This player believes neither side is really acting as the player wants and feels that Mitch needs to take over his situation. “Get realistic, tell everyone to shut up in the press.” More to come...
Update, many reports that the Flyers and D man Ivan Provorov have agreed to a 6 year deal tonight. Dave Isaac of the Courier Post: “He’s in on time. Can confirm that Ivan Provorov has agreed to a six-year, $40.5 million deal with #Flyers. Training camp begins tomorrow morning.” This from...

Ok, all you other signed RFAs...you are up... Today Jared Spurgeon signed a 7 year deal at 7.5 per...the biggest contract in Wild History...and somewhat surprisingly higher than either Provorov or Werenski...and the BIG Fish is still out there.. Charlie McAvoy, who some are calling among the b...
The Bruins signed Charlie McAvoy to a three-year deal that is very similar to the deal signed by Werenski. The $4.9M AAV is low but the contract ends high and forces a high fourth year essentially... RFA Update: I am hearing this may be more of a marker for the remaining RFAs than the Marner c...
Start here today...Here is your RFA update: On Patrik Laine... Over the weekend there was some hope that a bridge deal could be close and now I am told that this looks like less of a possibility.... a source texted me this morning: "The Islanders and Canadiens trade talks are going to continu...

There was a ton of talk this morning that there appears to be more hope growing that the Jets are closing in on signing Kyle Connor...but Patrick Laine and Mikko Rantanen are now both in Switzerland and skating with Bern. The Marner contract is more along the lines of what that Finns are looking f...
