Charlie McAvoy has been offered an in-person hearing with NHL Player Safety for slashing Zach Benson, which means he could be suspended six or more games to start the 2026-27 season.

It’s official.

Statement from Keith Pelley on his decision to name John Chayka #leafs GM and Mats Sundin #leafs senior executive advisor:

The Toronto Maple Leafs have hired John Chayka as their new general manager. 🍁

JUSTIN CARBONNEAU 0.5 left on the clock and forces a GAME 7! #STLBlues

The Avs having as many goals as the Habs had shots on goal is hilarious 😭

Evan Bouchard and Darnell Nurse have been added to Canada’s World Championship team

Further to this: It sounds like there's a good chance the NHL would rule in Philadelphia's favor if this scenario plays out. Meaning, if Toronto retains its 2026 1st after tonight's lottery, expect 2027 1st to go to Flyers and 2028 1st to Bruins ... both unprotected.

Jim Rutherford on the #Canucks GM search: "We interviewed a lot of people here over the last two weeks. It's been narrowed down to five guys. We've had in-person interviews with them. We continue to talk to these people. We don't have a deadline."

Jim Rutherford says that he will transition to an advisor role with the #Canucks after the draft

The Winnipeg Jets ALMOST had the first overall pick 🤯

brother what 😭

Elliotte Friedman shared that the Calgary Flames offered three first-round picks in 2013 for Colorado’s first-overall pick (Nathan MacKinnon). 🤯 The Avs wanted no part of it. • 6th overall - Sean Monahan • 22nd overall - Emile Poirier • 28th overall - Morgan Klimchuk

The Kelowna Rockets have selected forward Madden Daneault with the first-overall pick in the 2026 WHL Draft. Daneault, 15, recorded 65 goals and 149 points in 34 games (4.38 P/PG) with the U15 AAA Red Deer Rebels (AEHL U15) this season. He is eligible for the 2029 NHL Draft
