The GM of one of the greatest NHL teams to never win the Stanley Cup. The architect that brought the passion back to Toronto in 1993. RIP.

[North American Independent Central Scouting (NACS) @MarkSeidel]

It’s not our job to explain things to the Fans or defend Teams but the barrage of criticism we’ve seen on X about Teams making these late round swaps with other Teams is uninformed & silly. Teams only have 50 Roster spots so FOR EXAMPLE, if a Team has 18 Draft Picks in 2026, they have to waive & cut 18 guys off their 50 man list to get back to 50 so Teams will look at their list and determine if they think the Player they are going to take in the 13th round this year will be better than the Player they will have to cut & invariably, they aren’t. SAME EXAMPLE, the next guy on the 50 man list that Team X would cut was a 6th rounder from 2 years ago (‘08 birthdate) so therefore the Team would rather flip a 2026 pick for a 2028 pick so the 2nd Team can use the pick this year and Team X gets back that same round pick in a couple years. In summary, instead of cutting a 6th rounder from 2 years ago for a potential 13th rounder this year, they flip and it helps both teams. With the NCAA change, Teams will want to hang on to an American kid that maybe hasn’t shown up yet or an Ontario kid that has an NCAA committee because they are hopeful to recruit them. It’s not GM’s trying to fool their Owners or making moves for no reason.. it’s managing your 50 man list properly. - NACS Staff

Best hockey export out of Cochrane since Tim Horton!

[Ontario Hockey League @OHLHockey]

Three trophies. One unforgettable season. 🏆🏆🏆

Sam O'Reilly is just the fourth player in @CHLHockey history to capture OHL MVP, OHL Playoff MVP, and Memorial Cup MVP honours in the same season.

A well deserved honour for the TV voice of a hockey generation, and a gem of a human.

(He's a big @Storm_City guy too, which we love to see!)

Congrats CC!

[Chris Cuthbert @CCpxpSN]

As a kid I listened to Foster Hewitt and dreamed one day I could be that voice calling games. To be named a Foster Hewitt Award winner is the honour of a lifetime. Overwhelmed to be joining so many of my heroes and esteemed colleagues. Grateful to all who’ve helped along the way.

First piece of the puzzle. Neither Lewandowski or Naish were going to make the team this year ...

Islanders News: The New York Islanders announced today that Jay McKee has been named Head Coach of the Hamilton Hammers, the Islanders new American Hockey League affiliate.

[Mark Paré @MarkLPare]

Insane to think he was just carrying the torch at the Bell Centre for Game 3 against the Hurricanes. RIP.

[NHL Alumni @NHLAlumni]

The NHL Alumni Association is devastated to share that Claude Lemieux has passed away at the age of 60.

Born in Buckingham, Quebec, Claude was selected by the Montreal Canadiens in the second round of the 1983 NHL Entry Draft and would make his NHL debut just a few months later on October 13, 1983 and scored his first career NHL goal on December 4, 1983.

Claude split time between the Canadiens organization and the QMJHL from 1983 to 1985, capturing the President’s Cup with the Verdun Junior Canadiens in 1985 as QMJHL playoff champions, while earning the Guy Lafleur Trophy as Playoff MVP.

The very next season, Claude recorded 10 goals and 16 points in 20 playoff games as he and the Montreal Canadiens won the Stanley Cup. Claude remained with the Canadiens for an additional four seasons before joining the New Jersey Devils ahead of the 1990-91 season.

In 1994-95, his fifth and final season with New Jersey, Claude led the Devils to their first Stanley Cup championship, registering 13 goals in 20 playoff games, taking home the Conn Smythe Trophy as Playoff MVP. As a member of the Colorado Avalanche in 1995-96, Claude was once again an integral part of team history as the Avalanche hoisted Lord Stanley’s Cup for the very first time in 1996.

Claude played 297 regular-season games in an Avalanche uniform before rejoining the New Jersey Devils in November of 1999, and for a fourth and final time, would be crowned a Stanley Cup champion on June 10, 2000. Claude later played for the Phoenix Coyotes and Dallas Stars before making a comeback with the San Jose Sharks during the 2008-09 season.

Internationally, Claude represented Canada on several occasions, including capturing a gold medal at the 1985 World Junior Hockey Championships and winning the 1987 Canada Cup.

He was loved by his wife and four children, and on behalf of the Lemieux family, we kindly ask that everyone respect their privacy during this difficult time.

Memorial service details to follow.

It's been a long while since I've gotten to see a Timmins-area kid make waves this big heading into the OHL Draft.
Wherever Tanner goes, excited to see his future!
