With Dach in Jeopardy, Danault Thanks Evans and Crosby Praises Price

Vincent Larue

Kirby Dach is really starting to run out of options with the Canadiens.

The offers Nikita Kucherov turned down in Tampa Bay

Michaël Petit

Nikita Kucherov’s trade request certainly sent shockwaves through the hockey world. No one saw this coming, but when you look at the facts, it makes sense.

Marc-Olivier Cook

The news sent shockwaves throughout the National Hockey League: Nikita Kucherov has asked the Lightning to trade him. He doesn’t want to sign a new contract in Tampa, so the organization will have a decision to make by next summer, since Kuch will be a free agent as of July 1, 2027. And Dan Milstein […]
