The New York Rangers are in their Stanley Cup window and one trade pitch has them bolstering their defensive unit. The website PuckPedia has a new tool called PuckGM that lets users create their own trades and one user proposed a deal that would see the Rangers acquire Shea Theodore as part of a package in a blockbuster deal with the Vegas Golden Knights.

The Boston Bruins will enter the 2024-25 NHL season with a significant yet under-discussed advantage, thanks to the versatile Pavel Zacha. Whether playing as a center or a winger, Zacha’s consistency has been remarkable during his time with the Bruins. In his two seasons with the team following a trade from the New Jersey Devils in 2022, Zacha has split his time between these two positions, with the majority of his ice time spent alongside David Pastrnak. This has been no accident either. While Pastrnak has been the team’s best player for quite some time, it’s worth noting that his two best seasons have coincided with his partnership with Zacha. Though Pastrnak’s success can’t be solely attributed to this pairing, the chemistry between the two Czech natives has certainly played a role in Pastrnak’s play, regardless of whether Zacha has played on the wing or at center.

It shocked the entire NHL when the Tampa Bay Lightning and Steven Stamkos parted ways this past summer, with him signing with the Nashville Predators. Many believed that the process of Steven Stamkos hitting free agency was simply a bluff -- he had served as their captain since 2013, had a 60-goal season under his belt, and most importantly, had led the team to two Stanley Cups.

It is a natural thing for me to declutter and get organized four times a year in accordance with the seasons. Maybe it is a New England thing because the seasonal change is a noticeable transitional period.

- The naming of Auston Matthews as captain of the Maple Leafs is as much about the business of hockey as it is the immediate future of the team. There is money to be made here with Matthews as captain. This is big tournament time in hockey and there is nothing the NHL wants more than to pit Canadian captain Connor McDavid against American captain Matthews in the 4 Nations Faceoff and, one year later, the Olympic Games. The fact that McDavid and Matthews are represented by the same firm makes co-promotion and sales pitches even larger for two of hockey’s biggest names.

The Los Angeles Kings have made a series of roster moves during this offseason break. The most significant so far was getting rid of Pierre-Luc Dubois in a trade for Darcy Kuemper from the Washington Capitals. A growing concern from fans was goaltending depth and reliability for this season. While Cam Talbot offered experience and skill during last season as a 2024 NHL All-Star, he still showed problems with his age of being 37 years old. Due to the team acquiring Kuemper, the Kings ditched Talbot for a set goalie core of David Rittich and Pheonix Copley.
