Just like any other year, there’s a slurry of rumours and speculation surrounding the Toronto Maple Leafs following another first-round exit. This year, however, the speculation seems to have an extra set of legs.
Tyler Yaremchuk was joined by Frank Seravalli to discuss the changes that are likely on their way to the Carolina Hurricanes on the latest episode of Daily Faceoff Live.
It’s safe to say that Evan Bouchard’s breakout performance in the 2024 playoffs has taken his game to new heights. After all, he is fresh off becoming the third fastest defenceman ever to hit 40 career playoff points and has seen the other side of his game improve.
On Tuesday, Sportsnet Central invited Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli into a long conversation. Here’s a look at what Seravalli had to say. The hockey analyst worked with Sports Central to help make sense of what has been an intense and evenly-matched series between the Vancouver Canucks and the Edmonton Oilers.
The Florida Panthers comfortably won Game 2 over the Boston Bruins by a score of 6-1, tying their second-round series at 1-1. The end of the game got quite nasty, with many players from both teams getting into scrums, including a surprising bout between Bruins’ forward David Pastrnak and Panthers’ forward Matthew Tkachuk.
It was a night of exciting Stanley Cup Playoff hockey, as the New York Rangers defeated the Carolina Hurricanes in double-overtime to take a 2-0 series lead, and the Colorado Avalanche came back from a 3-0 deficit to defeat the Dallas Stars in Game 1 of their seven-game series.
The Edmonton Oilers breezed through Round 1 of the Stanley Cup playoffs, beating the Los Angeles Kings 4-1. Game 2 was their lone defeat in the series which, despite playing poorly for large portions, they only lost in overtime after Anze Kopitar beat Stuart Skinner.
With the Florida Panthers up 3-0 in the series on the Tampa Bay Lightning, the brooms are out and the weight is on the Bolts to get themselves back in the series.
The Edmonton Oilers will be one of nearly a dozen teams who will carry salary cap overages into the 2024-25 season. As confirmed by Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli and CapFriendly, the Oilers themselves will carry the largest overage, up to $3.45-million.
The Los Angeles Kings were one of hockey’s best teams of the 2010s, winning two Stanley Cup championships and playing in some of the most exciting seven-game series of the decade.
The field of 16 is set, the Stanley Cup playoffs begin April 20, and it’s time for Daily Faceoff’s staffers to battle for bragging rights. Below, you’ll see our picks for Round 1.
Close your eyes, throw those darts and hope you don’t embarrass yourself. That might as well be the mentality for making Stanley Cup playoff picks every year.
Frank Seravalli was joined by Colby Cohen to discuss the upcoming Jets/Avalanche series and who will come away with the win on the latest episode of Daily Faceoff Live.
Welcome back to another edition of Bet365 Daily Bets Frank Seravalli filled in for Tyler Yaremchuk today and joined Daily Faceoff Live for another Bet365 Daily Bets segment.
The Edmonton Oilers finished the 2023-24 regular season with a 49-27-6 record and 104 points, good for second in the Pacific Division and a first-round matchup with the Los Angeles Kings in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Frank Seravalli was joined by Colby Cohen to discuss which team playoff near-miss from the Eastern Conference had the most disappointing season on the latest episode of Daily Faceoff Live.
Now in the final week of the 2023-24 NHL regular season, the Eastern Conference Wild Card race is shaping up to be a doozy. The Washington Capitals, Detroit Red Wings and Philadelphia Flyers are tied with 87 points, and the Pittsburgh Penguins are one point behind.
The Washington Capitals’ playoff chances took a big hit after a 4-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday, and now they no longer control their own fate in the race for one of the two remaining playoff spots in the Eastern Conference.
It is safe to say that the relationship between Evander Kane and the Edmonton Oilers has hit a rough patch. He is in the midst of one of the worst stretches of his career with only 15 points (seven goals and eight assists) since the calendar flipped over to 2024 and is stuck in a 17-game goalless slump.
It’s been a pretty wild 10 months on the job for new Calgary Flames general manager Craig Conroy. First he had to replace an entire coaching staff, then he had to run his first draft as a GM, then he had to deal with the Flames’ oodles of pending unrestricted free agents.
Some sad news to share on this Tuesday afternoon. According to multiple reports, including from Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli, longtime NHLer and former Calgary Flames player Chris Simon has passed away.
In the spirit of Valentines Day, the Daily Faceoff Live podcast played matchmaker on a few key trade targets. Given that the Leafs are absolutely looking for a defenceman and the Flames going to be aggressive sellers, this connection was to be expected.
It was a busy extended weekend in the world of the Calgary Flames, between a visit from the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Battle of Alberta, the NHL debut of Adam Klapka and the return to the NHL of Matt Coronato.

The NHL has welcomed two new teams into the league over the past six years, starting with the Vegas Golden Knights in 2017 and, most recently, the Seattle Kraken in 2021.
