Playoff Notes: Blackhawks-Predators, Matthews, McDavid

April 14, 2017 at 7:33 pm CDT | by natebrown Leave a Comment

Game one of the playoff series between Nashville and Chicago certainly didn’t play out how many expected. Not only did the Predators steal a game in Chicago, they managed to shut out one of the most potent offenses. The Chicago Tribune’s Steve Rosenbloom “dares” the Predators to try and play a similar game against the Blackhawks in Game two. Rosenbloom writes that the Preds played “old-time” hockey which saw a vintage style of play from the 90’s: get a goal and sit on the lead. Rosenbloom goes on, adding that the Hawks didn’t take advantage of several gifts from Nashville while also giving Preds netminder Pekka Rinne too easy of a job Thursday evening.

  • Meanwhile, the Tennessean’s Adam Vingan writes that while it shocked many, those in the Nashville locker room never doubted for a second that they could compete with their Central division rival. Vingan writes that the season series was much closer than people think, and that for the Preds to head home up 2-0, Rinne must be “sensational” like he was in the first game while Nashville must sustain the aggressiveness that made them a higher scoring team in the regular season. Nashville, Vingan adds, must not allow Chicago to dominate play as they did in the final two periods.
  • Yahoo’s Greg Wyshynski reports that the league is monitoring the ratings for the games involving young superstars Connor McDavid and Auston Matthews. NBC Sports Executive Producer Sam Flood believes that a long playoff run would only make McDavid and Matthews more likely to be on NBC next season. Flood added that NBC responded to the hype of both players, flexing in games with the young stars to guarantee them air time. The next three games for both players’ teams will be featured on the NBC Sports Network, instead of the USA network. Wyshynski advises hockey fans eager to see more of McDavid and Matthews should tune in to those games.

Bruins Notes: Krejci, C. Miller, Morrow, Subban

April 14, 2017 at 6:20 pm CDT | by Zach Leach 4 Comments

Fresh off a 2-1 Game One win against the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday night without three starters in David Krejci, Torey Krug, and Brandon Carlo, it appears that the Boston Bruins will have to line up for Game Two with an even more short-handed roster. While the team has until their matinee puck drop on Saturday to make any official announcement, it sounds as though defenseman Colin Miller will join the growing list of injuries. Miller, who left the previous game after suffering a lower body injury on a trip from Mark Borowiecki, was on the ice for practice today, but left early due to pain and discomfort. After practice, head coach Bruce Cassidy made it sound very unlikely that Miller would be available for the next game.

With Miller out, in addition to Krug and Carlo, Joe Morrow is the next man up to slot in on the blue line. Morrow, a former first-round pick and a piece of the Tyler Seguin trade, has not been able to work his way into regular play time in years with the Bruins. With John-Michael Liles in the fold this season, Morrow was bumped down to eighth on the depth chart and has not played in almost three months. However, the Bruins were able to beat the Senators with just five defenseman for most of Game One, so even a cold Morrow could be an upgrade as Boston looks to take a stranglehold on the series with another road win.

  • Having Krejci back would certainly go a long way to help the Bruins take a 2-0 series lead, but Cassidy confirmed that Boston’s highest-paid player will miss another game. Cassidy did add the qualifier that “as of today” he would miss the game, and Krejci did suit up for warm-ups before being a late scratch in Game One,  however he missed practice today and all signs point to the Bruins playing is safe with their third-highest scorer.
  • As reported earlier, the Bruins have made it official that they have returned goalie Zane McIntyre, who suited up as Tuukka Rask’s backup for Game One, back to the AHL and has recalled Malcolm Subban on an emergency assignment to serve, fittingly, as an emergency backup should anything cause Rask or Anton Khudobin. Don’t worry Bruins fans, there’s no reason to worry about Rask’s health.

Edmonton Oilers Expected To Call Up Jesse Puljujarvi After AHL Season Ends

April 14, 2017 at 4:40 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 1 Comment

With the Bakersfield Condors needing a win tonight to stay alive in the AHL playoff race, it’s all hands on deck for the Edmonton Oilers’ affiliate. If they’re eliminated however, Darren Dreger of TSN reports that the Oilers will likely call up Jesse Puljujarvi as an option in the NHL playoffs. It’s not clear if they’d use him right away, or if he’d just practice with the team as a so-called “Black Ace”. Jesse Puljujarvi

Puljujarvi was the fourth-overall pick in last year’s draft—somewhat surprisingly, after Columbus selected Pierre-Luc Dubois at #3—but struggled early in the season to find a place among the Edmonton forward group. After several weeks of playing sparingly on the fourth line, Puljujarvi was sent to the AHL where he has put together a nice season. Still just 18-years old and playing against men sometimes twice his age, the Finnish winger has 28 points in 37 games and has improved his play throughout the season. His big frame and skating ability project as a high-end winger in the NHL, capable at both ends of the rink.

With the Oilers just one game into their first-round series with the San Jose Sharks, there is no guarantee they’ll even last longer than the Condors. If the AHL squad wins their last two games, while the Stockton Heat lose theirs (they play each other tonight), the Condors would get into the playoffs as the final seed in the Pacific division. If they lose, or the Heat gain even a single point, they would be eliminated.

The Oilers have relied on their top-six quite a bit this season, and continued to do so in game one against the Sharks. Iiro Pakarinen and David Desharnais both played fewer than ten minutes, while Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins all broke 20—the latter leading the team thanks to over six minutes of short-handed play. Should the Oilers feel the young Puljujarvi is ready to contribute, or suffer an injury to an important winger it is easy to understand why they’d want him around.

West Notes: Reddekopp, Keller, Agostino

April 14, 2017 at 3:18 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Los Angeles Kings have signed officially signed Chaz Reddekopp to a three-year entry-level deal. The 20-year old seventh-round pick of the Kings in 2015 was set to become a free agent should the team not have gotten him under contract by June 1st. A big defender, Reddekopp had 43 points in a breakout campaign with the Victoria Royals, but still wasn’t shy about dropping the gloves to defend a teammate.

With Reddekopp now signed the Kings have just one player, Matt Schmalz, whose exclusive rights would expire this June should they not get him under contract. After two disappointing years since being drafted, Schmalz may be left to fend for himself this summer.

  • Clayton Keller and Noah Hanifin have been added to the Team USA squad for the upcoming World Championships in Germany. That will make four teams for Keller this year, as he’s suited up for Team USA at the World Juniors, finished his first year at Boston University, signed and played three games with the Arizona Coyotes and will now represent his country once again alongside other NHL stars. The young forward helped lead the Junior squad to gold in January, and will try to take this team to the podium as well.
  • Kenny Agostino has been named the AHL’s Most Valuable Player after an 83 point season. The 24-year old played seven games with the St. Louis Blues, but spent most of his season dominating the lower level with 59 assists in 65 games. Picked by the Penguins in the fifth-round in 2010, Agostino hasn’t made an impact at the NHL level yet and wasn’t even tendered a contract by the Flames last summer—they acquired him in the Jarome Iginla deal of 2013. The Blues signed him to a one-year deal, making him an unrestricted free agent again at season’s end.

Expansion Requirements Still Needing Attention

April 14, 2017 at 2:00 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 3 Comments

For teams outside the playoffs, preparation for the summer months starts early. Free agency, coaching staffs, prospect profiles and this year, another interesting workload: the Expansion Draft. For many teams, much of the work to prepare for the expansion draft was already done during the season. We saw extensions for players like Michal Rozsival, trades for fringe forwards like Eric Fehr, and goaltenders given contracts without ever really making an NHL impact.

But still there remains much to be done in preparation for the draft, and contracts should come out over the next month to protect teams from an unexpected loss. Each team must expose at least two forwards and one defender who is both a) under contract for 2017-18 and b) played either 40 games in 2016-17 OR a total of 70 games in 2015-16 and 2016-17 combined. They must also expose one goaltender who is either under contract for 2017-18 or will be an RFA this summer. While much of this depends on who each team decides to protect, these are the situations that will likely see a move or extension handed out before the deadline.

Arizona Coyotes

The Coyotes currently have just three forwards who could fill this requirement: Jamie McGinn, Tobias Rieder and Brad Richardson. While Richardson is an easy choice, the other two don’t deserve to be exposed even if McGinn did have a disappointing year. The easy way to solve it would be extend Josh Jooris, who qualifies but doesn’t have a contract past this season currently. Peter Holland could also be sacrificed, though it’s unclear whether the front office believes in him as a piece going forward for this team.

Read more

Carolina Hurricanes

Carolina is in an enviable position with so many young defenders making an impact already, but their situation in the expansion draft isn’t as rosy. Currently they’d need to expose Justin Faulk, as he’s the only defender that would meet the requirements. Again, it’s solved with a quick extension for Matt Tennyson, but it’s another example of a player getting a contract that he may have not normally deserved.

Chicago Blackhawks

The ’Hawks shored up their defensive requirement when they signed Rozsival, and their goalie situation by inking Jeff Glass. But up front, they currently have only Marcus Kruger, Ryan Hartman and Jordin Tootoo able to fill the two spots. While Hartman surely deserves protection, that leaves Kruger and Tootoo exposed. Perhaps the Blackhawks are fine with exposing Kruger should it come to that, because they’re likely to lose either Trevor van Riemsdyk or Ville Pokka anyway. There are several players they could sign and expose instead of Kruger should they want, with the most likely candidate being Dennis Rasmussen.

Edmonton Oilers

Do the Oilers want to expose Mark Letestu? Because that’s what would likely have to happen at the moment, as he is one of the few who would be reasonable to expose and fills the requirement. Otherwise, they could give a contract to Iiro Pakarinen, David Desharnais or Matt Hendricks and leave one of them exposed along with Benoit Pouliot.

Florida Panthers

It’s not likely that many other teams will leave their captain exposed, but that’s what may have to happen in Florida with Derek MacKenzie. If the team would rather protect one of Colton Sceviour or Jussi Jokinen, MacKenzie is really the only other logical option to be exposed, even if they did just sign him to an extension. They also have a problem on defense, where one of Mark Pysyk, Alex Petrovic or Jakub Kindl needs a contract before the draft unless you want to lose Jason Demers.

New Jersey Devils

The Devils are interesting, because if they protect their whole core up front they need to sign and expose at least one of Beau Bennett, Jacob Josefson and Stefan Noesen. Or, they can just thank Mike Cammalleri for his service and leave him available for the Golden Knights.

New York Rangers

The Rangers will lose a good forward in the expansion draft, and it might even be 27-goal man Michael Grabner. You wouldn’t want to expose any of the younger core forwards, and they’ll need to sign and expose Tanner Glass, Brandon Pirri or Jesper Fast to go with him. It’s going to be an interesting summer for the Rangers, who have eight or nine forwards who would all be welcomed in Vegas. Perhaps a deal is made before the draft to move one (or two) out for an asset.

Ottawa Senators

Unless Bobby Ryan has played himself right out of Ottawa, the Senators will have to sign at least one player to expose alongside Alex Burrows in the draft. They have a half dozen players who all qualify, including Chris Neil and Viktor Stalberg. They’re more focused on the Boston Bruins though, and will likely talk to their free agents after the playoffs end.

Playoff Notes: Zaitsev, Benning, Sanford

April 14, 2017 at 12:31 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be without Nikita Zaitsev again on Saturday night when they try to even up their series against the Washington Capitals. As Kristen Shilton of TSN reports, Zaitsev missed practice again despite Babcock lobbying for his return. All season the Maple Leafs have kept clear boundaries between the coaching staff and the medical staff, taking any decision out of the player or coach’s hands.

Zaitsev’s absence was noticeable for the Leafs, who were forced to use Matt Hunwick for over 26 minutes, often on his wrong side. As we wrote yesterday, an impressive performance from Hunwick in the first round could be very impactful for his career in the NHL, and he actually showed fairly well. While he’ll never be an elite defender, the Leafs held their own against the powerful Capitals, even holding a 2-0 lead at one point in the first period.

  • Ryan Rishaug of TSN reports that Matt Benning will likely make his playoff debut tonight, inserted into the lineup for the struggling Eric Gryba. Gryba played a key role in two of the San Jose Sharks goals, and the young Benning will try to fix those weaknesses as the Oilers try to get back even in the series. The 22-year old was quite a find for Edmonton this year, coming straight out of Northeastern and at times looking like a solid NHL piece. Gryba had 16 minutes of ice time in game 1; expect a similar amount for Benning tonight.
  • Robert Bortuzzo and Zach Sanford will both be in the St. Louis Blues lineup tonight according to Jeremy Rutherford of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, with Jordan Schmaltz and Jori Lehtera coming out. Sanford will likely skate alongside Alex Steen and Vladimir Sobotka, though Steen did miss practice today. Bortuzzo fits in beside Carl Gunnarsson on the third pairing. The Blues will have to try and reduce the number of chances they allow to the Wild, as it took an outstanding game from Jake Allen to give them the victory. Sanford was a big part of the Kevin Shattenkirk deal, and could make fans forget all about their traded all-star if he plays a big role tonight.

Snapshots: Tolvanen, Lowry, Senators

April 14, 2017 at 11:30 am CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

Adam Kimelman of NHL.com goes in depth on draft prospect Eevi Tolvanen in his latest article, detailing the move from Finland to the USHL for the undersized forward. Tolvanen put up a huge year for the Sioux City Musketeers this season with 54 points in 52 games, but it was his work at the defensive end that leads some to believe he can be an impact NHL player. While his offense is clearly his calling card, his willingness to work on the other parts of his game are what really excite scouts. Speaking to Kimelman, Sioux City GM Mark LeRose spoke of that defensive maturity:

I’m not going to say he’s defense-first, but he is responsible defensively. It’s not his passion to play defense, his passion is to score goals and create offense. But he does understand, especially this time of year with the playoffs starting, he can create offense from defense, so if he’s good defensively he’s going to get the puck in transition quicker.

That’s where Tolvanen will make his mark, not by being an elite defender but by doing just enough to keep the puck off his opponent’s stick and in the offensive zone. At a World Junior tournament that saw Finland do everything wrong, Tolvanen was one of the bright spots at just 17. Ranked #8 among the CSS final North American skaters, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him go in the top-10 in June.

  • According to Victoria Sports News (h/t Mike Halford at NBC Pro Hockey Talk), Dave Lowry, head coach of the Victoria Royals and former NHL assistant with the Calgary Flames has been in talks with the Vancouver Canucks for up to six weeks about a possible coaching position of some sort. While there is no indication that it would be the head coaching job, Lowry would be a solid addition to a staff after his fifth straight winning season in Victoria. While Travis Green, coach of the AHL Utica Comets, keeps coming up regarding the NHL head coaching job, Lowry is clearly familiar to the Canucks having played there and coached in their backyard for the past few years.
  • Brent Wallace of TSN reports that the Ottawa Senators had several new faces practicing with the starters today, including Marc Methot who took his normal place beside Erik Karlsson. As Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports, a decision will be made on the defenseman tomorrow morning ahead of their game 2 tilt with the Boston Bruins. Methot has been out since his finger was shattered by a Sidney Crosby slash late in the season, and Ottawa has felt his absence in the defensive zone. After losing game one, they would be glad to welcome back the natural pair for Karlsson, and take some pressure off Dion Phaneuf and Mark Borowiecki. They’ll play at 2pm tomorrow, in the early slot of a full day of playoffs.

Steven Kampfer Signs Two-Year Extension With New York Rangers

April 14, 2017 at 10:01 am CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

Friday: The team has made the deal official, though no details were released.

Thursday: In the middle of the night after their playoff win, the New York Rangers did a little contract celebration, inking Steven Kampfer to a two-year extension according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports. It’s a two-way deal worth $650K each season in the NHL, while only paying $300K in the AHL. The 28-year old will now become an unrestricted free agent after the 2018-19 season.

Kampfer came over from the Florida Panthers in a mid-season trade that sent former first-round pick Dylan McIlrath down south. He had actually been traded to the Rangers prior to that in a deal for Joey Crabb, and will now stick around in the Big Apple for a while. At the time of the McIlrath trade, our own Zach Leach had this to say:

The University of Michigan product appeared to have a bright future in front of him playing for the Boston Bruins right out of college. However, as his play dropped off, the Bruins sold high on him at the 2012 NHL Trade Deadline in a deal with the Minnesota Wild for Greg Zanon. This time around, Kampfer will provide some experienced depth for the Rangers, but seems likely to still see significant AHL minutes throughout 2016-17.

Zach was right in predicting a stint in the AHL, as Kampfer would go on to play 43 games for the Hartford Wolfpack this season, with 10 matches for the Rangers sprinkled throughout. He scored 19 points at the AHL level and registered just two during his time in New York.

The right-handed shot defenseman still provides that depth for the Rangers, and is still expected to be mostly an AHL defender over the next two years. He doesn’t fill any expansion requirements for the Rangers, as he is 12 games short of the 70 needed over the last two years. Instead, New York will have to expose one of Kevin Klein or Nick Holden (or sign Brendan Smith to an extension).

East Notes: Lightning, Subban, Galchenyuk

April 14, 2017 at 9:35 am CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Tampa Bay Lightning headed into this season after a fruitful summer, getting Steven Stamkos under contract just before he hit the open market, signing Nikita Kucherov and Alex Killorn to team-friendly cap numbers and locking in Victor Hedman and Andrei Vasilevskiy to extensions that start next year. It was an impressive few months for Steve Yzerman and his management group, but he couldn’t rest on his laurels for very long. This season posed new challenges, and this summer would have been even tougher getting Tyler Johnson, Ondrej Palat and Jonathan Drouin under contract with such little cap space.

During the year the young GM moved out Brian Boyle, Ben Bishop and Valtteri Filppula, opening up a bunch of cap room for the summer and for the performance bonuses that several players—including Brayden Point, who came out of nowhere to put up a 40-point season—were now due to receive. He’s accomplished that goal as CapFriendly reports, clearing just enough room to not carry any bonus overages into next year. The Lightning were at risk of almost $1.2MM in penalties, which would have in all likelihood cost them a player. Now he’ll have around $20MM to re-sign Johnson, Palat and Drouin in addition to Andrej Sustr and Jake Dotchin, among others.

  • Mark Divver of the Providence Journal reports that Zane McIntyre will head back to the AHL Bruins to start tonight, while Malcolm Subban will be heading to Boston as their emergency goalie. To be clear, that doesn’t mean that Subban will see the ice or that either Boston goaltender is injured, just that he will serve as an insurance policy should one of them go down in warm up—like Matthew Murray did before game 1 for the Penguins.
  • Frank Seravalli of TSN opines that the Montreal Canadiens need to find a “finisher” for Alex Galchenyuk if they want him to produce these playoffs. Since he’s been demoted to a line with Steve Ott and Andreas Martinsen, Galchenyuk continues to produce offensive chances but isn’t getting much help from his linemates. It doesn’t seem like Galchenyuk will return to the center ice position under head coach Claude Julien, and will likely have to find a way to impress without the skilled wingers he was once given. If the Canadiens fail to register a goal again however, you can be sure the lines will hit the blender for Game 3.

World Championship Updates

April 13, 2017 at 7:20 pm CDT | by Mike Furlano Leave a Comment

Terry Frei of the Denver Post tweeted a list of Colorado Avalanche players that will play for their respective countries in the 2017 World Hockey Championships. In addition to the previously-announced selections of Nathan MacKinnon and Matt Duchene, Frei states that defenseman Tyson Barrie and goaltender Calvin Pickard will join Team Canada. Colorado forward Mikko Rantanen will play for Finland, and forward J.T. Compher will play for the United States.

Mikko Rantanen has a decorated international career, earning a gold medal as captain of the Finnish World Junior team in 2016, and a silver medal in the World Championships that same year. Overall, Rantanen has 20G and 22A in 60 international games.

J.T. Compher’s addition displays Team USA’s depth issues, as the American forward only has 21 games of NHL experience. Compher did captain the University of Michigan’s D1 Mens Hockey team last season—scoring 16G and 47A in the process.

Finally, the Vegas Golden Knights will be hoping that Calvin Pickard gets some significant ice time after the Avalanche announced that—barring any trade—Pickard will be exposed in the NHL Expansion Draft. Pickard played in 50 games this season after Semyon Varlamov went down with a season-ending injury.
