Auston Matthews will be well paid to lead the Toronto Maple Leafs to a Stanley Cup championship.
Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid, Colorado Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon and Tampa Bay winger Nikita Kucherov are the finalists for this season's Hart Memorial Trophy, the NHL announced Friday.
DENVER — Nathan MacKinnon scored a goal and assisted on two more as the Colorado Avalanche rolled through Minnesota's newest netminder, Filip Gustavsson, on their way to a 5-2 win over the Wild on Tuesday night, grabbing a 2-0 lead in the second-round playoff series.
After years of telling himself there would be a next year, it wasn't until the last six minutes of his final game that Anze Kopitar realized there wasn't going to be a next year.
LOS ANGELES — Nathan MacKinnon had two goals and an assist, Nicolas Roy and Devon Toews scored in the third period, and the top-seeded Colorado Avalanche swept the Los Angeles Kings out of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs with a 5-1 victory in Game 4 on Sunday.
If there's been one surprise in the Stanley Cup Playoffs thus far, as the Philadelphia Flyers have pushed the Pittsburgh Penguins to the brink; the Flyers were +135 to win the series before it began and are -2000 as it heads to Game 4. Philadelphia has shortened from 70-1 to 35-1 to win the Cup, while Pittsburgh has lengthened significantly from 25-1 to 190-1 since the postseason began. The Pens are BetMGM's largest remaining liability and DraftKings called the Flyers «a staple of the future book.»
The 2026 Stanley Cup playoffs are underway, and with them will come one of the most fascinating postseasons in recent years. With the old order fading — the two-time defending Cup champ (and three-time East champ) Florida Panthers missed the field entirely — and no obvious successor in place, the race for the Cup feels as open, and as consequential, as it has in years.
Following a trio of Game 1s opening the 2026 Stanley Cup playoffs Saturday, there are four more clashes throughout the day Sunday as eight additional teams begin their postseason journeys.
