Nick Schmaltz and Clayton Keller of the Utah Mammoth each recorded four-point nights

Nick Schmaltz and Clayton Keller ignited the Utah Mammoth’s 6-3 rout of the Anaheim Ducks on October 26, 2025, each exploding for four-point nights in a dominant display at Delta Center. Keller, the franchise cornerstone, tallied two goals and two assists, including a dazzling breakaway finish and a pinpoint feed on Logan Cooley’s third-period marker. Schmaltz matched him with a goal and three helpers, orchestrating plays with elite vision—his primary assist on Keller’s opener set the tone. The duo’s chemistry overwhelmed Anaheim’s defense, fueling a four-goal second period that buried the Ducks. Utah’s power play cashed in twice, with both stars central. Cooley (two goals) and Dylan Guenther benefited from their setups. For a Mammoth squad at 4-3-1, this outburst—Keller now at 10 points, Schmaltz at 9—signals offensive potency amid relocation buzz.

Alex Ovechkin scored the first goal of the 2025-26 season and moved to 898 career goals,

As noted in the sports card above, Alex Ovechkin has now scored 899 career goals, surpassing his 898th goal milestone achieved on October 17, 2025, against the Minnesota Wild in a 5-1 Capitals win. His first goal of the 2025-26 season, a one-timer from the top of the circle off a Dylan Strome face-off win, marked No. 898, bringing him within two of the historic 900-goal mark. Ovechkin added his 899th goal against the Columbus Blue Jackets, further closing in on becoming the first NHL player to reach 900. Despite a slow start with no goals in his first four games, the 40-year-old’s lethal shot and power-play prowess—evident in his 325th career PPG—keep the milestone watch alive.

Sunday Overreactions: Will Oilers regret Evan Bouchard's contract?

Evan Bouchard’s scorching “Bouch Bomb” goal against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday night finally cracked the sheet of ice around his scorching-hot summer extension, but the Edmonton Oilers’ $10.5 million AAV, four-year pact—inked in July—remains a lightning rod for early-season angst. Through nine games, the 26-year-old blueliner has mustered just three points and a ghastly minus-10 rating, a far cry from his 75-point average over the prior two seasons and his playoff wizardry (81 points in 75 games). With Edmonton sputtering at 3-5-1—outscored 31-27 and ranking 19th in goals—the defensive lapses in Bouchard’s one-dimensional game feel amplified, prompting whispers of buyer’s remorse amid cap crunches. Overreaction? Absolutely. Bouchard’s slow burn mirrors the Oilers’ broader offensive funk: Connor McDavid didn’t score until Game 7, and Leon Draisaitl’s dipping below a point-per-game clip.

'Weight off our shoulders': Flames can finally exhale after first regulation win

The Calgary Flames, mired in an agonizing 0-4-3 start to the 2025-26 season, finally shed the albatross of futility with a gritty 3-2 regulation victory over the New York Rangers on October 26 at Scotiabank Saddledome. It snapped an eight-game skid dating to last spring's playoff miss, their longest since 1995-96, and delivered the first 60-minute triumph under new coach Ryan Huska. Kevin Bahl's second-period deflection—his first as a Flame since the July trade from New Jersey—stood as the game-winner, while Jonathan Huberdeau's shorthanded tally and Nazem Kadri's empty-netter sealed it. Dustin Wolf, 21, stonewalled 28 shots for his third win, including a sprawling pad save on Artemi Panarin late. The Rangers clawed back via Noah Labat, but Calgary's penalty kill—4-for-4—held firm. "It's a weight off our shoulders," Kadri beamed post-game, echoing the locker room's collective sigh. Huberdeau added, "We needed this exhale—now build."

Capitals relieve assistant coach Mitch Love of duties after NHL investigation

The Washington Capitals fired assistant coach Mitch Love on October 26, 2025, following an NHL-led investigation into allegations of domestic abuse from his past, as reported by insider Frank Seravalli. The league suspended Love for the entire 2025-26 season for conduct detrimental to the NHL, with eligibility for reinstatement in 2026-27 pending conditions. Love, 41, was placed on team-imposed leave September 14 after the NHL received a letter detailing allegations from a woman tied to a past relationship, which also reached teams like the Pittsburgh Penguins and Boston Bruins during Love’s head-coaching interviews. The Capitals, emphasizing “the highest standards of conduct,” acted swiftly post-investigation. Love, who joined Washington in 2023 after two years coaching Calgary’s AHL affiliate, denied the allegations via his lawyer, expressing disappointment but accepting the decision while vowing to cooperate.

Polling Scouts: Demidov draws comparisons to NHL greats, past and present

Ivan Demidov, the Montreal Canadiens’ electrifying rookie, has scouts buzzing with comparisons to NHL legends like Pavel Datsyuk, Paul Kariya, and Nikita Kucherov. In a recent Sportsnet article, Eric Engels cited anonymous scouts who praised Demidov’s dynamic skill set after just 17 NHL games. His elite puck-handling, deceptive east-west movement, and playmaking vision draw parallels to Datsyuk’s wizardry and Kucherov’s creativity, with one scout likening him to a “harder-working Evgeny Kuznetsov.” Others see shades of Mitch Marner and Alex Kovalev in his early NHL flair, while his skating style echoes Macklin Celebrini’s. Scouts note his ability to manipulate passing lanes and create scoring chances, though some suggest he needs to develop a stronger shot to become a complete offensive threat. Despite a small sample size, Demidov’s 49 points in 65 KHL games and his recent one-timer goal against Vancouver signal a bright future.

Batherson, Stutzle help Senators scorch Bruins for third win in a row

The Ottawa Senators extended their winning streak to three games with a commanding 7-2 rout of the Boston Bruins on October 27, 2025, at Canadian Tire Centre. Drake Batherson and Tim Stutzle led the charge, each tallying two goals and an assist. Batherson’s power-play goal tied the game in the first, marking his second straight three-point night, while Stutzle’s pair of third-period power-play goals blew it open. Claude Giroux, Nick Cousins, and Fabian Zetterlund also scored, with Jake Sanderson adding three assists. Ottawa’s power play was lethal, converting 4-of-5 chances. Leevi Merilainen redeemed his earlier struggles, stopping 27 shots. Boston’s Morgan Geekie scored early, but the Bruins, last in the Atlantic Division, managed only Viktor Arvidsson’s late goal. Ottawa’s offensive surge, following a 7-1 win over Washington, signals a team finding its groove.

Penguins' Crosby becomes ninth player to reach 1,700 points in win over Blues

On October 27, 2025, Sidney Crosby etched his name deeper into NHL history, becoming the ninth player to reach 1,700 career points during the Pittsburgh Penguins’ 6-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues at PPG Paints Arena. The 38-year-old captain achieved the milestone with a goal and two assists, including a secondary assist on Bryan Rust’s third-period goal just 42 seconds in, marking his 1,700th point. Crosby sealed the win with a breakaway goal, his 1,701st point, while Evgeni Malkin added an empty-netter. Despite the milestone, Crosby’s focus post-game was on a fan who fell from the upper concourse, reflecting his characteristic humility. The Penguins, now 7-2-1, showcased their offensive depth with contributions from Rust, Anthony Mantha, and Parker Wotherspoon, while Erik Karlsson notched three assists. Crosby’s achievement places him among legends like Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, solidifying his enduring legacy.

Oilers still searching for their game after low-excitement loss to Kraken

The Edmonton Oilers are struggling to find their rhythm following a 2-3 loss to the Seattle Kraken on October 25, 2025. Despite outshooting Seattle 33-23, the Oilers’ offense lacked spark, managing just two goals from Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid. Their power play, typically a strength, went 1-for-2, while defensive lapses allowed Seattle’s Jared McCann to score the game-winner. Coach Kris Knoblauch noted the team’s “flat” energy, pointing to inconsistent ex*****on and poor puck movement. Edmonton’s penalty kill held firm, denying all three of Seattle’s power-play chances, but it couldn’t compensate for the lackluster attack. With only 12 wins in 16 games against the Kraken all-time, as shown in the sports card above, the Oilers face mounting pressure to rediscover their offensive edge and defensive cohesion before their next matchup.

Canucks burned by struggling penalty kill in blown-lead loss to Canadiens

The Vancouver Canucks suffered a heartbreaking 4-3 overtime loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night, undone by a penalty kill that has become their Achilles' heel. Trailing early, Vancouver rallied with goals from J.T. Miller and Conor Garland to take a 3-2 lead into the third period. But two late minors—Elias Pettersson for tripping and Quinn Hughes for holding—handed Montreal prime power-play chances. Nick Suzuki capitalized on the second, tying the game with 4:12 left, and Cole Caufield sealed the comeback in 3-on-3 overtime. Vancouver’s PK, now ranked 30th in the NHL at 71.4%, has allowed 12 goals in 42 opportunities over the last 10 games. Coach Rick Tocchet called it “unacceptable,” pointing to poor positioning and failed clears. With tough matchups looming, fixing the kill is urgent—or more leads will vanish.

Maple Leafs’ Woll slowly working way back to lineup

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Joseph Woll is steadily progressing toward a return after a month-long personal leave of absence that began September 23, 2025, for undisclosed family matters. The 27-year-old rejoined team practices on October 27, marking his first full skate since rejoining the club, a significant step in his return-to-play process. GM Brad Treliving emphasized a cautious approach, noting Woll’s skating on an every-other-day basis for weeks and his strong conditioning, but stressed the need for game reps to regain NHL speed. Placed on long-term injured reserve (LTIR) on October 24 to free up his $3.67 million cap hit, Woll is eligible to return November 1 against Philadelphia, though a conditioning stint with the AHL’s Toronto Marlies is likely first. Woll’s return boosts a Leafs squad (4-4-1) struggling with an .889 team save percentage, leaning heavily on Anthony Stolarz (2-3-1, .894 SV%) and backup Cayden Primeau.

Why Senators are 'making progress' after poor defensive start

The Ottawa Senators have endured a rocky start to the 2025-26 season, ranking third-last in the NHL with 3.84 goals against per game through their first nine outings. Yet, amid the early chaos, signs of maturation under coach Travis Green point to tangible progress, blending structural tweaks with standout performances that hint at a return to last year's stingy form—when they led the league with 10 shutouts and allowed 47 fewer goals overall. A pivotal 7-1 demolition of the Washington Capitals on October 25 exemplified this shift, limiting foes to just 13 shots while firing 42 of their own. Linus Ullmark's .923 save percentage in that rout—coupled with his rare goalie fight—bolstered a netminding corps that's trending upward, delivering league-average results after early inconsistencies. Underlying metrics reinforce the optimism: fifth in expected goals per 60 at even strength (2.22) and eighth-fewest high-danger chances against, underscoring that the Senators' core defense.
