This is weird. Very weird.

T Dundon is #1 on my 2036 NHL Entry Draft board. Not a lot of prospects can boast that kind of Stanley Cup pedigree

Sources say #FlyTogether have been notified that an offer sheet is pending with defenseman Pavel Mintyukov.

“I still view this team as a playoff contender. Does it mean we'll make the playoffs? No, it doesn't […] but I still want us to be competitive as we start bringing younger guys into our lineup.”

"That was an easy call for me when John didn’t return, to name Anders captain.” -- Barry Trotz

[Kai Russell @KaiRussellTHN]

Oilers are lucky they could even get this much back.

[Frank Seravalli @frank_seravalli]

Trade details:

To #sjsharks:
Darnell Nurse

To #Oilers:
