  • The Calgary Flames have a decision to make, keep Jakob Pelletier or send him on waivers. On the surface this doesn’t seem to be that big a deal right? Considering Pelletier is 23 years old, a former first round pick, only played in 37 games with 10 points in his career. It’s almost a certainty…

  • Now, I saved this division for last because this is the division that I think could be the one that stirs up a completely different ending than the one I think will happen. So much intrigue in this division, so let’s get going. #8) San Jose SharksThis should come as no surprise as the Sharks…

  • Rolling right along to the Central Division, to me this division provides some considerable intrigue and is full of different possibilities as to who will finish in what position. Let’s getting into it. #8) Chicago BlackhawksThis team should be more competitive within the realm of the NHL with Connor Bedard entering his second NHL season,…

  • As per the last article as preseason gets underway I am continuing my predictions for the NHL division standings, today it’s the top heavy Metro Division. Let’s get to it. Out of respect to John Gaudreau, and the Columbus Blue Jackets I will not be ranking them at this time. #7) Washington CapitalsWhile the goal…

  • Over the next few days I will go through every division and attempt to predict where teams will fall in the standings at the end of the season starting with 8th place and going to 1st.So starting with the Atlantic Division, arguably the most competitive division in the NHL #8) Buffalo SabresI know there seems…

  • The Calgary Stampeders have made the change at QB after Labour Classic bomb out after Jake Maier threw 4 interceptions in a disappointing loss in the penultimate game of the season, 35-20 against the provincial rivals Edmonton. Maier went 22/34 for 297 and a touchdown along with the interceptions, while in 4th quarter Logan Bonner…

  • Johnny Gaudreau, number 13 for the Calgary Flames, a 5’9 man who played bigger than he was, and from my own experience a extremely kind hearted, quiet, guy who was an absolute talent on the ice. The impact he had on the community in Calgary is felt even more today with his passing along with…

  • To the West we go with the Edmonton Oilers and Chicago Blackhawks. Kane and Towes vs McDavid and Draisaitl, goaltending and defense are going to be the key things in this series with the forward talent both teams have, I give that edge to the Blackhawks, but that won’t matter if the Oilers score 3…

  • Starting in the Eastern Conference with the New York Rangers and the Carolina Hurricanes, no one knows who will be starting in net for the Rangers. It’ll either be the veteran in Lundqvist, or the newcomer with almost no experience in Shestyorkin. If I was the Rangers I’d go with the experienced and hungry for…

  • The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Mookie Betts to a 12 year $365 million contract extension, that will average out to $30.4 million a year. To spend that much on a single player and to still be able to afford putting your team on the field says that you have the money to do it, what…
