CONGRATULATIONS TO THE 2025 STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS FLORIDA PANTHERS!!!

 I called it from the beginning that they'd make the finals, they were my pre-season pick, they still have a good team, have lots of bumps and bruises. Matthew Tkachuk is a hockey player who will play lots of hockey while also not being brought down. Sam Bennett deserves that Conn Smythe more than anybody, as he is solid as a rock and put up an incredible amount of points. But I say they got a dynasty considering they won back-to-back while making three appearances. 

But, the Oilers... they deserves to lose. I mean, Stuart Skinner did do his best and played in a high-pressure market that just so happens to be his hometown team. But pulling the goalie while up 3-0 is just pure trash, because Edmonton could've came back that game instead of giving Sam Reinhart two goals for free. Edmonton had comeback potential, seeing how Podkolzin scored the last goal there was fight. It was such a sloppy game by game, the Panthers decided to not wait for the final seconds and just celebrate their Stanley Cup victory. But also, Evander Kane is one thing the Oilers need to move on from as he's basically brought them down and took the stupidest of penalties. He doesn't deserve to be on a good team, let alone win a Stanley Cup. He brought down every team he played for, and I think him off the Oilers would be a huge improvement. In a future article, I am going to be discussing what changes I'd like to see the Oilers do. But in these playoffs for Edmonton have been up and down all over the place.

Dakota Joshua traded to Toronto

Where do I begin... maybe that I wrote how he was one of the underrated players in the NHL. Except the thing is it's no longer Vancouver. Now, for all I know maybe Dakota Joshua wanted out, but this return is beyond brutal and unacceptable by the Canucks. With Toronto, I think we'll see Dakota Joshua's true potential as he truly is an underrated player who can do a lot more than your average hockey fan thinks. Vancouver getting a forth for Joshua, this is just like the Silovs trade but maybe worse given they were key players for the Canucks. If I'm trading Dakota Joshua away I'm expecting something as high as a second-round pick and a player with a good contract.  As for Toronto, this is an excellent pick-up for the Leafs and this is going to improve their penalty kill a lot which in my opinion is something that could use work this off-season. Toronto is the clear winner of the trade.

The curious case of Elias Pettersson

I think Elias Pettersson is still a good player who can return to his full form one day and still has potential to be an offensive threat in the NHL. Based on what I've seen he does work hard, but there's parts he needs to learn to improve his game. He was well on track once upon a time, but I think locker room issues soured things for him last season. It may take one or two seasons, but I think he has a similar comeback Marcus Naslund did.  Pettersson had an outstanding season before they brought JT Miller in. In Miller's defense, he was not one for a young core but needed to be on a team he could do a lot more on. But if the Canucks never traded for Miller I think Pettersson would've been the producer every single season. In 2019-20 he finished second in scoring after JT Miller; in the playoffs that year in the bubble, he and JT Miller both tied the lead in team scoring with eighteen points. In 2020-21 he missed most of the season but had twenty-one points in twenty-s...

PWHL Draft First-Round Recap and Predicting the 2026 PWHL Season

 The third ever PWHL Draft had happened recently held at the Hard Rock Casino and Resort in Ottawa, Ontario, which was special considering they introduced two new teams: PWHL Vancouver and PWHL Seattle, both of which held the final picks of the draft.  1. New York Sirens -  Kristýna Kaltounková - F - Colgate University - A consistent point producer from the Czech Repbulic, the Sirens took what is believed to be the best player in this draft. Can be looked to either make plays and has a promising shot bringing what is believed to be a long PWHL career. What  Kaltounková also has in her game is height which is a huge advantage in this sport. I think this pick instantly improves the Sirens and gives Sarah Fillier a line-mate for a long time. 2. Boston Fleet - Haley Winn - D - Clarkson University - The Boston Fleet take an offensive defenseman from Clarkson and defender of the year. But another key highlight of her career is winning various gold medals in junior tourname...
