No athlete ever wants to be injured, but Hilary Knight has made the most of her time away from the rink over the last month. I spoke to her about her media rounds, @seattletorrent.bsky.social and, yes, meeting Connor Storrie of Heated Rivalry. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Who else but Hilary Knight to send this game to overtime? Here's my chat with her from just before the Olympics: www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Kristin O'Neill is best known for her two-way play. She also has a knack for scoring big goals, and just did it again. If you subscribe to @thehockeynews.bsky.social, here's my story from the Archive from earlier this season: archive.thehockeynews.com/issue/684003...

Dylan Larkin will have about 25 people cheering him on when he hits the ice with Team USA starting Thursday. We spoke about his excitement for his first Olympic experience and the Detroit Red Wings' push to return to the Stanley Cup playoffs. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

With @newyorksirens.com currently in a playoff spot, I spoke to their young stars Sarah Fillier and Kristyna Kaltounkova about their PWHL team this year and their upcoming Olympics. The women's hockey tournament kicks off Thursday in Milan. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Slow, then fast. After months of speculation about Quinn Hughes' future, the Canucks shook hands with an under-the-radar suitor. As they collected a haul of assets, the Minnesota Wild pushed closer to Cup-contender status. My story, for Forbes SportsMoney: www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Not many NHL coaches get to come back to a team. But Glen Gulutzan spent the last 12 years working with a wide range of sharp hockey minds before returning to the Dallas Stars. We talked about his journey in this feature story for @thehockeynews.bsky.social: thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...

Clayton Keller, Alexander Kerfoot & Utah Mammoth president Chris Armstrong took me behind the scenes of the team's spectacular new training facility, built from the ground up in just 13 months. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Josh Siskin, the GM of FloHockey, shared his thoughts about his platform's new partnerships with the OHL and the QMJHL and much more when we spoke this week for Forbes SportsMoney: www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Since I spoke to Frank Nazar ahead of the World Championship in May, all he's done is win a gold medal, tie for his team's scoring lead and now, ink a juicy contract extension off just 56 NHL games. It's Frank's world. We're just living in it. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Matthew and Brady Tkachuk don't just share their playing style with their legendary father, Keith. They've also all got the gift of gab. It was such a treat to chat with all three about their EA Sports NHL 26 cover athlete status and much more. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

New @pwhl--vancouver.bsky.social players Sarah Nurse, Jenn Gardiner and Kristen Campbell piloted the Aquabus like pros on Friday, quickly making themselves at home in their new market. My story, for @cdnpress.bsky.social: www.thestar.com/sports/hocke...

Last year, Jeremy Swayman's decision not to file for arbitration caused a ripple that reverberated until opening-night puck drop. Will Bowen Byram make similar waves this summer? www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

One more from me today: a wrapup of Wednesday's @thepwhl.com awards and Tuesday's draft — complete with trades! www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Fans in Vancouver and Seattle can now start speculating in earnest about the make-up of their @thepwhl.com teams' rosters. Some of the biggest names in women's hockey have been left off their teams' protected lists. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Sidney Crosby, Brendan Shanahan and Marc-Andre Fleury are all part of the roster for season 2 of Prime Video's "Faceoff: Inside the NHL." www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

New, @thehockeynews.bsky.social: I took a look at how the post-season success of the @abbycanucks.bsky.social could impact the big club, starting with another super spring from Arturs Silovs. thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...

After so much recent success at world juniors and on the women's side, @usahockey.bsky.social has added a gold-medal team at men's worlds for the first time since 1933. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

After a one-day break in game action, the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs pick up again on Tuesday in Raleigh. Here's my preview of both conference final matchups: www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

The Minnesota Frost are back in @thepwhl.com Finals — with a first-time opponent in the Ottawa Charge. In a league this tight, the outcome will come down to the details. The series starts Tuesday in Ottawa. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

New, for @thehockeynews.bsky.social: Since the @nhlcanucks.bsky.social couldn't keep Rick Tocchet, handing the coaching reins to Adam Foote is a good way to maintain stability during what has been a tumultuous year. He did a good job rebuilding the defense, too: thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...

On a big night for the D pair of Shayne Gostisbehere and Sean Walker, here's my story on 'Ghost' and why the Canes were the right free-agent fit for him: thehockeynews.com/news/news/ne...

After unveiling the Utah Mammoth name and logo this week, team owner Ryan Smith spoke with me about how lessons he learned in the tech world have fuelled his approach to building out the @utahhockeyclub.bsky.social with his fans and community always top of mind. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Playoffs start Wednesday for @thepwhl.com. Here's the breakdown of how Montreal's decision to face its closest geographic rival set up a rematch on the other side. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Ottawa beats Toronto 2-1 in overtime on the final day of @thepwhl.com season to grab a playoff berth. Minnesota is leading Boston 5-0 late in the 2nd. If that score holds, it's: 1. Montreal 2. Toronto 3. Ottawa 4. Minnesota Boston eliminated on tiebreaker. Montreal picks its opponent on Sunday.

I was at Rogers Arena this afternoon to hear Jim Rutherford's updates on Rick Tocchet's decision to leave the Vancouver Canucks and what happens next in the team's coaching search: www.timminstoday.com/national-spo...

Evander Kane told me last week how hard it was for him to be sidelined for the late stages of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final. He has been impactful in his first game back at Rogers Place tonight, with an assist and a key goal.

On Friday, Evander Kane will play his first game at Rogers Place since June 2, 2024, as the Oilers try to climb back into their first-round series. I spoke with Kane last week about his injuries, recovery process, and time spent with his growing family. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Expansion to Vancouver for the 2025-26 season checks a lot of boxes for @thepwhl.com, but they're not done. Another market could still be announced this spring, and the league is keeping the door open to add more cities soon. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

J.T. Miller was a complicated hero with the Vancouver #Canucks. Replacing him will be just as complex. @carolschram.bsky.social revisits the Pettersson/Miller rift as everyone moves forward: thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...

Call me crazy, but I'm with Gary Bettman. The #NHL has the best first round in pro sports and it shouldn't change. This year, they've spread out the games. Every series has gotten attention, and deserved it. On Tuesday, bring on the Battle of Florida. Saving the best for last?

Earlier this week, Matthew Tkachuk told me that he's 'trending well' for a return to action with the Florida Panthers for the first time since the 4 Nations Face-Off. Here's more on how he's handled his time off the ice. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Wayne Gretzky's goal-scoring record was largely thought to be untouchable. But nearly a decade ago, a longtime Washington Capital told me he could envision Alex Ovechkin getting there. Now, he has. thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...

The way he's going, Sidney Crosby could be playing hockey for another decade. Now, he has a bit of a plan for his post-playing days, joining former teammate Mark Streit in a Swiss watchmaking venture. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

It's been a long time since the landscape around the Boston Bruins was this grim. After a deadline sell-off, they're positioned for a fresh start. But they'll need to re-establish a solid foundation before they start the build-out. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

BU is through to the Frozen Four after a 3-2 overtime win against Cornell. The semifinals go Apr. 10, with the final on Apr. 12. Rest of the bracket TBD. The Canucks' last regular-season games are Apr. 14 and 16.

The Willander wait for @nhlcanucks.bsky.social fans just got a little longer. After BU destroyed Ohio State to advance in the Round 1 of the NCAA tournament, No. 16 Cornell upset No. 1 Michigan State in the bracket. It'll be No. 8 BU vs. Cornell on Saturday afternoon for a spot in the Frozen Four.

After John Tortorella seemingly threw in the towel earlier this week, the Philadelphia Flyers had elected to finish their season without him. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

The St. Louis Blues are the feel-good story of the NHL right now, but they're not the only hockey show in their hometown. The PWHL Takeover Tour lands at Enterprise Center this weekend, featuring local product Jincy Roese. Next month, St. Louis hosts the Frozen Four. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

#Hockey Undermanned Canucks defeat depleted Devils to stay in the mix. Thatcher Demko's lower half got fully tested. If he's OK tomorrow, that's very promising. Enigmatic right-shooting Lekkerimaki left Markstrom smashing his stick in frustration. Shootouts can be fun once in awhile!

I spoke to @thewhl.bsky.social Commissioner Dan Near and Victory+ boss Neil Gruninger about the partnership that will bring the WHL playoffs and future seasons to fans everywhere for free, and why that matters. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

After raising the bar for all-star events with February's 4 Nations Face-Off, the NHL is thinking long and hard about how it wants to follow up at its scheduled 2026 event on Long Island. That and more from Gary Bettman as the general managers meetings wrapped up. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Tonight in Tampa, Ryan McDonagh is set to suit up for his 995th career NHL game. We spoke about his approaching milestone, his return to the Lightning and his role of raising awareness for AstraZeneca's Body Check Cup. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

One year ago, Elle Hartje was in the stands for the PWHL's first-ever game in her hometown of Detroit. This Sunday, she'll be on the ice with the New York Sirens as the league aims to welcome its one-millionth fan through the gates as part of the Takeover Tour. www.forbes.com/sites/carols...

Nathan MacKinnon's 'sophomore slump' lasted three years. But he still managed to get to 1,000 points while still in his 20s — an ultra-rare feat. He has already carved out a spot among the NHL's elite — and he may not even have peaked yet. thehockeynews.com/news/latest-...
