Edmonton Oilers Sign Paigin, Starrett To Two-Year Contracts

April 10, 2017 at 1:20 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

Even though the season is over, the Edmonton Oilers front office is still hard at work. The team has signed both Ziyat Paigin and Shane Starrett to two-year entry-level contracts. Paigin was brought in on an amateur tryout from the KHL last week, while Starrett has just finished up his sophomore year with the Air Force Falcons of the NCAA.

Paigin, 22, was the Oilers’ seventh-round pick in 2015 and proceeded to break out in the KHL after being loaned to Sochi. His 27 points in 37 games for that club looked exceptional when paired with his 6’6″ frame. Back with Ak Bars this year, he fought through injuries and inconsistency to an underwhelming campaign, which may have spurred a move to North America. In a recent interview with Sport-Express (and translated by The Hockey Writers), Paigin seems to hint that he didn’t see much playing time with Ak Bars because he wouldn’t agree to a contract they had offered earlier in the year. The big defenseman was also questioned on his fitness, something that he’s worked very hard at recently.

Edmonton must think he can answer those questions, as he quickly signed a two-year deal with them. After “studying the roster”, Paigin thinks he can make an impact in the NHL at some point, and the Oilers hope he can as well. His intimidating physical presence could be a big help do their defense corps down the line, and his ability to shoot the puck and keep up with skilled players should help his transition to the North American game.

Starrett on the other hand is an undrafted goaltender who has put up two straight excellent seasons in the NCAA. Recording save percentages of .924 and .925, the 6’5″ goalie looks like a classic late-bloomer who has professional potential. Starrett actually participated in Chicago Blackhawks camp last summer but has gone to Edmonton where he’ll compete with Nick Ellis for the AHL job next season. While Cam Talbot remains the franchise goaltender, the Oilers will try to build a pipeline of talent they can use in net as they try to compete for the next decade with Connor McDavid. Remember, Talbot is already 29 years old and will hit free agency following the 2018-19 season.

Snapshots: Eichel, Malenstyn, Johnson

April 10, 2017 at 12:27 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 1 Comment

When Jack Eichel finished his game last night without registering a point, he was still sitting in the top-10 with .93 pts/gm this season. He had a “Schedule B” bonus coming to him worth $2MM for finishing that high, a nice send off to what was a frustrating season for both him and the team. After being injured through much of the first part of the season, Eichel returned at an extremely high level and struggled to try and keep the Sabres afloat. They didn’t, finishing dead last in the Atlantic Division and despite his effort he had one more loss still to come.

When Leon Draisaitl scored his 29th goal of the season in the third period of last night’s Edmonton-Vancouver game, all the celebration was over Connor McDavid registering his 100th point. Eichel on the other hand was probably pulling his hair out, as the point moved Draisaitl ahead of him for 10th in pts/gm and eliminated his bonus by just 0.01 (h/t CapFriendly for pointing it out). Terrible for Eichel, but actually quite good for the Sabres, who would have had to carry that $2MM as a penalty against next year’s cap since they are into their LTIR space this year.

  • The Washington Capitals have signed Beck Malenstyn to a three-year entry-level contract, after his breakout season with the Calgary Hitmen. The team had previously signed him to an amateur tryout for this season, but apparently thought he had done enough to earn a contract. Despite the deal kicking in next season, it is expected that Malenstyn will head back to the Hitmen for another year, as he doesn’t turn 20 until next February. The power forward put it all together this year, scoring 32 goals and 56 points. His previous career high had been eight goals.
  • Tyler Johnson hopes to remain in Tampa Bay long-term, according to Bryan Burns of NHL.com. The restricted free agent is one of several big names the Lightning have to re-sign this summer, a task that GM Steve Yzerman is confident in according to Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times. After clearing some room at the deadline by moving out Valtteri Filppula’s contract, Yzerman may indeed have enough room to bring everyone back. While the expansion draft still poses a difficulty, the former NHL great has done a wonderful job in keeping the Lightning core together and should be a contender again next season should he find better injury luck.

Vancouver Canucks Fire Willie Desjardins

April 10, 2017 at 11:25 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 2 Comments

It’s that time of year, and another team has decided to fire their head coach after a disappointing season. The Vancouver Canucks have fired Willie Desjardins along with assistants Doug Lidster and Perry Pearn. The team finished last in the Pacific Division with a 30-43-9 record and will miss the playoffs for a second consecutive season.

After taking the Canucks to the playoffs in his first year in Vancouver, Desjardins has seen both the performance on the ice and his popularity in the city plummet recently. The former Calder Cup and WHL Champion has found success at every level of coaching until now, and will be considered for open jobs around the league again very shortly. Though his teams haven’t performed well the last two years, some may point to their construction more than his tactics as there have been very few success stories coming out of free agency or the trade market for the Canucks recently. Whether it is signing Loui Eriksson long-term, or drafting Jake Virtanen and then bouncing him up and down between leagues, there have been quite a few questionable moves from management in recent years.

Desjardins nonetheless hasn’t gotten the best out of this group and will pay the price for it. The Canucks will be in another prime lottery position, finishing second last in the league thanks to an eight-game losing streak to end the year. With new leadership behind the bench, and another high draft pick perhaps the franchise will buy into a real rebuild. At the deadline, they did well to acquire Nikolay Goldobin and Jonathan Dahlen for expiring contracts and will now attempt to find a new voice to lead the new direction. With just one year remaining on the contracts of the Sedin twins, the Canucks have a huge amount of salary coming off the books for 2018-19 and could be in fine shape in two year’s time.

Bob McKenzie of TSN was first to break the news that Desjardins had been relieved of his coaching duties.

Playoff Injury Notes: Senators, Bruins, Canadiens

April 10, 2017 at 10:55 am CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

With the long regular season finally over, a new challenge has appeared for sixteen teams. The Stanley Cup playoffs represent one of the toughest grinds in all of professional sports, where intensity and physical play is increased and players are expected to skate through injuries. That said, some of the teams will start the postseason nursing injuries to some of their biggest stars, while others will welcome them back into the fold after a short rest.  Here are some injury updates from around the Eastern Conference playoff picture.

  • The Ottawa Senators will welcome back Erik Karlsson and Zack Smith for game one of their series against the Boston Bruins, GM Pierre Dorion confirmed today. The team may also get Marc Methot back into the lineup, less than three weeks since his finger was “shattered” by a Sidney Crosby slash. Inserting those three into the lineup will give the Senators a huge boost at both ends of the ice, as they continue to try and play their shutdown style.
  • The Bruins on the other hand will be without Torey Krug for the entire first round, and miss Brandon Carlo for at least game one. The team signed and activated Charlie McAvoy earlier today to replace them, though losing Krug for the whole round is a devastating blow. Whether McAvoy makes an immediate impact or not, Krug has been the Bruins’ best puck-moving defenseman this year and will be sorely missed. Carlo on the other hand has looked like a veteran this year while paired with Zdeno Chara, making up for some of the captain’s decline in effectiveness. The team will also be without Noel Acciari for game one according to Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com.
  • Montreal welcomed back an important face to practice today, as Shea Weber rejoined the team in a regular jersey and is expected to play in the first game of their series against the New York Rangers. Weber hasn’t played since March 1st, but will be a huge part of a Canadiens blue line trying to slow down the high-powered Rangers. While technically Montreal is the much higher seed, the Rangers finished with just one fewer point than them in the standings and should be considered at least even odds going into the series. Montreal needs all hands on deck to brush off what has been a roller coaster season and find some success in the playoffs this year.

Minor Transactions: 04/10/17

April 10, 2017 at 9:49 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 3 Comments

The 2016-17 regular season wrapped up last night with a few exciting finishes including Connor McDavid getting his 100th point, Bryan Bickell scoring a shootout goal in his final game, and Riley Sheahan finally scoring a goal (or two) this season, giving Joe Louis Arena a nice send off. Today, teams are making several roster moves to either prepare for the playoffs or give their AHL squads a fighting chance.

We’ll keep track of all the moves right here:

  • The Washington Capitals will head into their first round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs without Garrett Mitchell, as the rookie forward was sent back down to the AHL. The 25-year old was given his NHL debut on Sunday night as a reward for his exemplary service for their minor-league club. A sixth-round pick back in 2009, Mitchell has served as an alternate captain for the past two years and developed a leadership role for the Hershey Bears.
  • Ottawa has sent Andreas Englund and Nick Paul back to the AHL now that they are ready to take on the Boston Bruins. Englund has played five games for the Sens this season, but with the impending return of Erik Karlsson will not stick around for the playoffs.
  • The Islanders, eliminated on Saturday by a Maple Leafs win, have assigned Josh Ho-Sang, Adam Pelech and Connor Jones to the AHL for the Bridgeport Sound Tigers playoff push. Currently one point behind the Hershey Bears for the last spot in the Atlantic Division, the Sound Tigers will welcome the help.
  • Pittsburgh has sent Jean-Sebastien Dea, Oskar Sundqvist, Kevin Porter, Dominik Simon and Derrick Pouliot to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, clearing room for their injured players to return to the lineup. The last few games has seen Pittsburgh rest several players, while a return of Evgeni Malkin is expected at some point in the first round.
  • In addition to signing Charlie McAvoy to an entry-level deal, the Bruins have recalled Zane McIntyre from Providence on an emergency basis. He’s there to replace Anton Khudobin, who has been battling an injury on and off for the past few weeks. Tuukka Rask will start game one for the Bruins, who begin their series on Wednesday night in Ottawa.
  • The Columbus Blue Jackets won’t keep Sonny Milano with them for their first round matchup, as he’s been sent back to the Cleveland Monsters. Milano was held scoreless in his four games this season,  though still possesses exceptional offensive upside. He’ll help Cleveland try to repeat as Calder Cup champions, though they’ll need to get in first; the team has just a one point lead over the Charlotte Checkers for the final spot in the Central Division.
  • The Nashville Predators have recalled Pontus Aberg from Milwaukee to provide some depth during their playoff series against the Chicago Blackhawks. Aberg has played 15 games for the Predators this season, registering two points. The 37th-overall pick in the 2012 draft showed this season that he can dominate the AHL, scoring 52 points in 56 games.
  • The St. Louis Blues have assigned Chris Butler back to the Chicago Wolves after his one-game reward. The veteran blueliner was a rock for the Wolves this season and help them try to capture the Calder Cup trophy—they’re currently in first place in the Central Division and looking like a strong contender.

Charlie McAvoy Signs Three-Year ELC, Will Play In First Round

April 10, 2017 at 9:30 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 6 Comments

After the Boston Bruins lost both Torey Krug and Brandon Carlo in the last few games of the regular season, they’ve now been forced into something they hoped to avoid. Charlie McAvoy is at Bruins practice, and has signed a three-year, entry-level deal that will start this season.

McAvoy and the Bruins had been negotiating back and forth on whether to sign his deal for this season (2016-17) or start it next year (2017-18). He’s been playing on an amateur tryout with the Providence Bruins, where the team could make sure he was ready for the next step. Now, with the injuries that have befallen them in the last few days they have no choice but to get him under contract and insert him into the lineup.

The Bruins open their series on the road against the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday night, meaning McAvoy needed to be officially signed and activated by then. Krug was injured last week and seen with crutches, while Carlo suffered an upper-body injury after being run into the corner by Alex Ovechkin on Saturday night. Those two have likely been the Bruins best defenders this year, despite Carlo’s young age and relative inexperience. While it is not guaranteed that they won’t be able to go for Game 1, it does not look likely.

McAvoy was the Bruins first-round pick this past summer, going 14th overall before heading back to Boston University for his sophomore season. He put up another solid offensive year, while again showing that he can handle himself in the defensive end. One of the young defender’s best talents is his cool demeanor under pressure, easily collecting loose pucks and moving them out of the zone. While debuting in the playoffs would be a tough ask of anyone, McAvoy seems primed and ready for NHL action and should be able to impact the game positively.

Bob McKenzie of TSN was first to report that the team would sign him and activate him Monday, while Aaron Ward of TSN reported that he was at Bruins practice.

Dale Tallon Officially Named Florida Panthers General Manager

April 10, 2017 at 8:55 am CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

After retaking the general manager duties half way through the season when Tom Rowe stepped down behind the bench, Dale Tallon has officially been named general manager of the Florida Panthers—again. The team also announced that Tom Rowe will not be head coach or general manager any longer, though will stay on as a “special adviser”. Dale Tallon

Tallon of course was “promoted” out of the GM position less than a year ago, when he was given the title of President of Hockey Operations. There were rumors at the time that this was against his wishes, which have seemingly been confirmed as he is re-hired for the position. The fact that this season went horribly wrong for the Panthers, from the mid-season firing of Gerard Gallant to the late-season return of Aaron Ekblad too early from concussions, is one that cannot be entirely laid at the feet of the original decision to remove Tallon. Injuries played a huge part in Florida falling from first place in the Atlantic to 14 points out of a playoff position.

Now, with an incredibly experienced hockey executive back in charge the team must begin their search for a new head coach. While there are well-known names like Ken Hitchcock and Lindy Ruff available, there are many who believe the Panthers will go for a new, up-and-coming coach instead. Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reported just this weekend that the team will likely interview both Dallas Eakins of the San Diego Gulls and Jim Montgomery of the University of Denver for the job.

With extensions kicking in for Aaron Ekblad, Derek McKenzie, Reilly Smith and Jonathan Huberdeau this summer, the Panthers and Tallon will have an interesting time trying to fix a roster that is generally locked in long-term. Ten players are signed through the 2020-21 season, including both Roberto Luongo and James Reimer.

Evening Snapshots: Zaitsev, Polak, Bickell

April 9, 2017 at 6:59 pm CDT | by Mike Furlano Leave a Comment

News and notes from around the NHL this evening:

  • Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Nikita Zaitsev suffered an injury tonight in a game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Columbus captain Nick Foligno hit Zaitsev just as time expired in the first period, and Zaitsev left the ice awkwardly. The young defenseman tried to return in the second before leaving again. The Leafs hope the injury is not serious as they are close to signing Zaitsev to a seven-year deal.
  • Making matters worse for the Toronto Maple Leafs, defenseman Roman Polak also went down with an injury tonight. Polak collided with Blue Jackets’ Boone Jenner in front of the Toronto net and labored back to the bench. He soon after left the bench and went to the dressing room. Polak’s injury leaves Toronto with only four defensemen for the rest of the game. And while this game has no impact for the Blue Jackets, the Maple Leafs’ playoff position depends on whether they gain a point tonight. One point will move the team to 3rd in the Atlantic and set to face the Ottawa Senators. If Toronto fails to gain a point, they will play the Washington Capitals as the second wild card seed.
  • Carolina Hurricanes forward Bryan Bickell plays his last NHL game tonight as the Hurricanes take on the Philadelphia Flyers. Bickell was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and just recently made his return last week. He announced yesterday that he will retire at season’s end. Bickell will finish his career with 66G and 70A in 394 games, and three Stanley Cups with the Chicago Blackhawks.

Jets Notes: Trouba, Enstrom, Perreault

April 9, 2017 at 5:49 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose Leave a Comment

At the time he signed his two year bridge deal back in November, the expectation remained that Jets defenseman Jacob Trouba would eventually be traded even though he had rescinded his trade request.  Speaking with reporters today, including Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun, the blueliner stated that he’s happy in Winnipeg and is open to discussing an extension this summer:

“I’ve got no problem with Winnipeg and I think I’ve made that pretty clear. The contract is a two-way street and both sides have to come to together and agree on something. It’s not completely me, it’s not completely them. It’s a mutual thing.  It’s not a super pressing issue, I don’t think. I’ve just got to play out next year and see where it goes.”

Trouba had his best season in 2016-17, collecting a career high 33 points despite playing in only 60 games while averaging just shy of 25 minutes per night, also a career mark.  He’s eligible to sign a long-term extension as of July 1st; if he doesn’t sign one, he’ll be due a qualifying offer of $3.5MM following the 2017-18 campaign.

Other notes out of Winnipeg:

  • Blueliner Toby Enstrom declined to comment as to whether or not he has been asked by management to waive his no-move clause or even if he’d consider doing so, notes Mike Sawatsky of the Winnipeg Free Press. With the team wanting to protect Trouba, Dustin Byfuglien (who also has a NMC), and Tyler Myers in expansion, Enstrom’s clause would force the Jets to protect eight skaters instead of the standard 7/3/1 that most teams will use.  The veteran reiterated that he’s happy in Winnipeg and wants to stay for next season.  He has one year left on his contract with a $5.75MM cap charge which may be too rich for Vegas to take but Enstrom may not want to take the chance.
  • Also in Sawatsky’s column, left winger Mathieu Perreault revealed that he had spoken with management regarding the expansion draft and indicated that he was told that the team will try to do everything they can to protect him. Perreault, whose four year, $16MM extension kicks in next season, has been a popular pick as a player that the Golden Knights could potentially select and slot into their top six.   He posted a career high in points this season with 45 despite missing 17 games due to injury.
