With the departure of long-time captain Claude Giroux at the trade deadline last year, there was always a question of who would step into that leadership role. While no captain was named for the 2022-23 season (and likely won’t be named for 2023-24, either), Scott Laughton was the only player to wear a letter–an A–and…
*Many many days between games and nothing at all is happening in the NHL, outside of the Leafs ensuring that the league’s fired-to-hired pipeline continues flowing, unabated. [TSN] *Next up on our community draft board, at 13, is the guy Corey Pronman has at seven on his most recent ranking. So maybe we get to…
Welcome to JayPo’s Penalty Boxed Lunch, where we explore food from around the country! This week’s 19th official entry comes to us from the Maryland and we all know “Crabcakes and football — that’s what Maryland does!” Food History! Although the earliest use of the term “crab cake” is commonly believed to date to Crosby…
Next up in our rankings is a player who scouts have in all different spots on their draft board, Nate Danielson. He’s not the most exciting prospect of the bunch but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t be very valuable to the right team. The 6’1 184 pound center was one of the top players in…
Travis Konecny had a lot to prove coming into 2022-23. What was once a promising career as a high-end goal scorer had flatlined after the covid pause in 2020: he didn’t score in the playoff bubble, and he didn’t crack 20 goals the following two seasons after scoring 24 goals in each of the three…

*Danny Briere made the mistake of mentioning a theoretical Carter Hart trade on Philly sports radio, which of course lead to a lot of “going to trade Carter Hart” takes, but Briere would like you to calm down. That’s not what he said. [The Hockey News] *Oh and where did the new Flyers GM clarify…
It somehow seems fitting that once we finally have a chance to introduce a defenseman, much less two, into the mix of the draft board, we simply can’t decide which we want to talk about first. Last week, we talked about Axel Sandin Pellikka, who broke onto the draft board in the 11th spot, but…
While at times it may feel that the Flyers are starting this potential rebuild with relatively few jewels in their back pocket, there are a few pieces we can point to with some optimism. Cam York might not be as shiny as Cutter Gauthier and Tyson Foerster and Bobby Brink, but that’s likely only because…
*We’re almost to the final end of this hockey season, ready to watch the Final between two teams you definitely had in the Final on your bracket. Speaking of finals, it was a big weekend for Scott Laughton and Team Canada. [Inquirer] *And as the season finally draws to a close all eyes turn toward…
