Lifelong Detroit sports fan with an Engineering background, so I’ve definitely looked at the numbers behind why my favorite teams have disappointed me. Watches the games and the charts, not sure which to blame when I lose.

Brayden Point Leads Tampa Bay Attack in Loss

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point registered a pair of goals on Sunday as the Lightning fell to the Red Wings in the shootout. The first of Point's goal came on the power play with assists from Tyler Johnson and Nikita Kucherov, erasing Detroit's early lead in a game that would see three lead changes […]


Big Night for Tyler Bertuzzi Helps Lift Detroit

Detroit Red Wings forward Tyler Bertuzzi racked up the second four-point game of his career, notching a goal and three assists in Detroit's shootout win. Bertuzzi picked up a point on every one of Detroit's regulation goals as his line, along with Dylan Larkin and Anthony Mantha, combined for 11 points on Sunday. When playing […]


Adam Henrique Finds Back of the Net Against Toronto

Anaheim Ducks forward Adam Henrique picked up his 25th goal of the season on Friday night as he put the eventual game-winner behind Toronto netminder Jack Campbell. Henrique now has 40 points in 68 games and is on pace to flirt with his career-best 51 point season from eight years ago. At age 30 Henrique […]


William Nylander Scores Hits 30 Goal Mark

Toronto Maple Leafs forward William Nylander picked up Toronto's lone goal Friday night as they fell 2-1 to the Ducks. Nylander's unassisted marker came late in the third period as the Leafs tried to claw away at Anaheim's lead but ultimately fell short. This is the first time in Nylander's career that he has reached […]


Taylor Hall Breaks Goalless Streak in Loss to Flames

Arizona Coyotes forward Taylor Hall kicked off the scoring Friday night with a goal early in the first period, staking Arizona to their only lead of the contest. The Flames erased that lead by the end of the period and kept the game out of reach for Arizona despite another point, an assist on Carl […]


Three Assist Night From Matthew Tkachuk Leads Flames in Win

Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk picked up an assist on all three Calgary goals Friday night as the Flames beat the Coyotes 3-2. The three points extend a red-hot run for the young winger, who has recorded at least a point in 13 of his last 15 games with 18 total points in that span. […]


Kyle Connor Sets Career-Best in Loss to Oilers

Winnipeg Jets forward Kyle Connor recorded his 67th point of the season Saturday night, scoring a goal in the second period of a 3-2 loss to Edmonton. Connor also tied teammate Neal Pionk for a game-high seven shots on net, keeping him securely in the league's top ten for shots this season. Four points in […]


Leon Draisaitl Breaks Century Mark in Win Over Jets

Edmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl picked up three points Saturday night, scoring two power-play goals and adding an assist, as the Oilers topped the Jets 3-2. Draisaitl's first goal of the night was his 100th point of the season, making him only the third player in the last decade to record back-to-back 100 point seasons […]


Two Goals From Jason Zucker Not Enough Against Ducks

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jason Zucker provided all of Pittsburgh's offensive production Friday night, scoring the team's only two goals in a loss to the Ducks. The first of Zucker's two goals came on the power play, giving him his second power-play goal in his ninth game with Pittsburgh. Now with seven total points with Pittsburgh […]


Danton Heinen Pockets First Goal With New Team

Anaheim Ducks forward Danton Heinen picked up his second point in as many games since being traded from Boston, kicking off the scoring Friday night with a goal late in the first period against the Penguins. Heinen led all Anaheim forwards with 20:48 minutes of ice time Friday night while skating on the second line […]


Pair of Third Period Goals From Reilly Smith Seals Win for Vegas

Vegas Golden Knights forward Reilly Smith scored two goals on two shots in Friday night's win over Buffalo, including the eventual game-winner. It has been a very productive two weeks for Smith as he has picked up at least a point in six of his last seven games, totaling eight points over that span. Despite […]


Robin Lehner Earns Win over Sabres in Vegas Debut

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner allowed two goals on 34 shots Friday night as the Golden Knights defeated the Sabres 4-2. Lehner's strong play traveled with him to Vegas as he wasted no time in earning his first win since being traded from Chicago. Lehner had won 16 games in 31 starts with Chicago […]


Andreas Athanasiou on the Move to Edmonton

Forward Andreas Athanasiou has been traded to Edmonton along with Ryan Kuffner in exchange for two second-round picks and center Sam Gagner. In the second deadline deal between Detroit and Edmonton, the Oilers pick up a speedy winger to presumably staple to Connor McDavid's line. One year removed from breaking the 30-goal plateau, Athanasiou has […]


Ottawa Deals Jean-Gabriel Pageau to Islanders

Forward Jean-Gabriel Pageau has been acquired by the New York Islanders in exchange for a 2020 first-round pick, a 2020 second-round pick, and a conditional 2022 third-round pick. Ottawa was able to cash in on Pageau's career-year and now has more pieces to aid in their rebuild. For the Islanders, Pageau gives them a solid […]


Vincent Trocheck Sent to Carolina for Package of Players

Forward Vincent Trocheck was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes for forwards Erik Haula and Lucas Wallmark as well as prospects Eetu Luostarinen and Chase Priskie. Regularly deployed as Florida's second-line center, the assumption is that Trocheck will fill a similar role in Carolina. Where Trocheck lines up exactly will go a long way to determining […]


Mike Green Joins Former GM in Edmonton for Conditional Pick

Defenseman Mike Green was traded from Detroit to Edmonton for Kyle Brodziak and a conditional fourth-round pick. Green is on an expiring contract and now joins an Oilers blueline in need of more offensive punch. Green's 11 points in 48 games are a steep drop from his 32 points per season average of the previous […]


Two Points From Sean Monahan Help Lead Flames to Victory

Calgary Flames forward Sean Monahan picked up points on both of Calgary's first two goals Sunday night, registering a goal and an assist in the first period. It was the first multi-point night for Monahan of the month and only his second since the calendar turned to 2020. The hope in Calgary is that a […]


Dylan Larkin Provides Only Offense for Detroit in Loss

Detroit Red Wings forward Dylan Larkin scored a pair of goals Sunday night as the Red Wings fell 4-2 to the Flames. Detroit's lone bright spot in the game Larkin also recorded three shots on net and led all Detroit forwards with 21:57 minutes of ice time. Now with 17 goals and 45 points on […]


Ryan Graves Scores Lone Regulation Goal for Colorado in Win

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Ryan Graves pocketed a second-period goal Saturday night, providing the only offensive chance that Colorado would cash in on until the final round of the shootout. It was a rare lack of production from Colorado, who have the third-best goals scored per game rate (3.46) in the league this season. Colorado did […]


Jonathan Quick Keeps Game Close, Kings Fall in Shootout

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick turned aside 30 of 31 shots from the Avalanche on Saturday night before allowing only a single goal in the shootout. The loss snapped a two-game winning streak for Quick, which had been a welcome relief compared to the eight previous starts where Quick failed to earn a single […]


First Career Hat Trick for Jared Spurgeon Leads Comeback Win

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon rattled off three straight goals late in Friday night's contest, erasing Edmonton's lead and sealing the game for Minnesota. Five players registered assists across Spurgeon's three goals, but none of them more than once, which shows just how central Spurgeon was to Minnesota's offensive attack. After setting a career-high in […]


Ryan Nugent-Hopkins Drives Offense for Oilers in Loss

Edmonton Oilers forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored two goals and an assist Friday night as the Oilers fell 5-3 to the Wild. In a night where Edmonton's goal production was matched by a single Minnesota player, Jared Spurgeon, Nugent-Hopkins did his part by factoring in on each of his team's goals. It was only Nugent-Hopkins' second […]


Jason Zucker Thriving With Penguins

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jason Zucker registered an assist Sunday, giving him his third point in as many games with the Penguins. Dropped on to Pittsburgh's top line alongside Sidney Crosby, Zucker has wasted no time in paying off the cost it took to acquire him and has progressively received more and more ice time in […]


Three Points From Patric Hornqvist Leads Rout of Red Wings

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Patric Hornqvist scored two goals and an assist in Sunday's 5-1 win over Detroit. His assist came on the power play, giving him only his fifth power-play point of the season, which is a steep decline from his typical production. Hornqvist was credited with a third goal during the game, but the […]


Game-Winner From Phil Kessel Lifts Arizona to Victory

Arizona Coyotes forward Phil Kessel scored his 13th goal of the season Saturday night, giving the Coyotes a lead over the Capitals that they would hold for the rest of the game. Kessel's tally came on the power play, his ninth power-play goal of the season, and while his power-play goal total is nearing a […]


Tyler Toffoli Shines in Stadium-Series Victory

Los Angeles Kings forward Tyler Toffoli notched a hat trick in Saturday night's 3-1 win over the Avalanche. Toffoli was a force in this game, leading all Kings skaters with five shots and three blocks, putting a bow on his standout scoring performance. Now with 18 goals on the season, Toffoli is on pace to […]


Colorado Falls, Samuel Girard Collects Third Goal of Season

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Samuel Girard scored his third goal of the season Saturday night, inching him just a single goal away from matching his career-best total. Colorado earned the majority of chances in Saturday's Stadium Series showdown, outshooting the Kings 33 to 23, but Girard was the only Avalanche skater to find the back of […]


Point Streak Extends to Seven Games for Steven Stamkos

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Steven Stamkos picked up a goal and an assist Saturday night, including the eventual game-winner, as the Lightning blanked the Sharks 3-0. Stamkos now has at least a point in seven consecutive games and multiple points in four of his last five contests. Teammate Nikita Kucherov and Stamkos each have 12 […]


Barclay Goodrow Off to Slow Start in First Line Audition

San Jose Sharks forward Barclay Goodrow was tapped to play on San Jose's top line between Evander Kane and Timo Meier after Tomas Hertl was injured two games ago, but has just five shots and no points to show for it. He is getting more than 19 minutes of time on ice in those two […]


Single Tally From Tyler Toffoli as Kings Fall to Ducks

Los Angeles Kings forward Tyler Toffoli pocketed a power-play goal on Saturday night, giving the Kings their only score in a 3-1 loss. Toffoli now has two goals and 16 shots in his last three games, with both markers coming on the power play. On pace to break 20 goals for the fourth time in […]
