In a largely unprecedented move, General Manager of the Tampa Bay Lightning Steve Yzerman released a statement saying that the team would not be looking to trade star player Steven Stamkos before the trade deadline.

Report: Islanders may not trade Travis Hamonic by the deadline

0 comments by David Rogers

Back at the end of 2015, Islanders defenseman Travis Hamonic requested a trade out of the organization.

The Jets (his home team) […]

Report: Carey Price could be done for the season

0 comments by Liam McGuire

The Canadiens sit three points out of a playoff spot with a 27-24-4 record, and are still undefined as a playoff contender. One of the big reasons why that’s the case is the status of Carey Price. His MCL injury has caused the Canadiens to falter, but as bad as Montreal can be, with Price […]
