Colorado also snagged 25-year-old winger Nicolas Aube-Kubel from the Flyers on Saturday too. It’s not to offset for Byram, but undoubtedly helps the team’s depth on offence. Aube-Kubel only owns one assist in seven games this year thus far, but his usage also dropped to under ten minutes per game.

Islanders To Terminate Leo Komarov’s Contract
Komarov was signed by the Islanders in 2018 after spending five seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Throughout his nine-year NHL career, the 34-year-old appeared in 491 games scoring 63 goals and 170 points. He only appeared in one game this season, against the Florida Panthers on October 16, before being sent down to the Bridgeport Islanders of the AHL. He did not play for the AHL Islanders. Now, Komarov is reportedly heading to the SKA Saint Petersburg of the KHL.  Hearing this is official now. Believe Komarov will be on unconditional waivers tomorrow to terminate his Isles contract.

November 14: Komarov made his move to the KHL’s SKA St. Petersburg today, announcing it via an Instagram post. Komarov expects to join SKA “soon.”

The Vancouver Canucks entered T-Mobile Arena in Vegas on Saturday looking determined to bounce back from an atrocious 7-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche. They jumped out to a 2-0 lead, and even tied the game twice after squandering it, but ultimately fell to the Golden Knights 7-4.

A myriad of things have to go wrong for a team to allow seven goals, and when asked where the game got away from his team head coach Travis Green couldn’t omit what he perceived as poor officiating.

“There’s definitely a couple calls that should have never been called against us,” said Green post-game.

“I don’t usually complain about refereeing but the call against (Thatcher) Demko was atrocious and the call against (Oliver Ekman-Larsson), the double-minor for roughing, was very questionable for me as well. Both were in critical parts of the game.”

Definitely a major problem league wide, although I believe Canadian Teams get the shaft,  more often than not.

 The Kraken have placed center Riley Sheahan on waivers. Sheahan signed with Seattle at the beginning of September to give them some extra depth down the middle, inking a one-year, $850K contract. However, he has had a limited role this season, logging just 11:28 per game, the lowest average of his career, while tallying just a goal and two assists in 14 games this season.

Matt Murray and Alex Formenton were the seventh and eighth players placed in NHL COVID-19 protocol by the Senators on Thursday. 

Murray, a goalie, and Formenton, a forward, join defenseman Josh Brown, Victor Mete and Nick Holden, and forwards Austin Watson, Connor Brown and Dylan Gambrell.

The Senators host the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday (7 p.m. ET; TSN5, RDS2, BSW, ESPN+, NHL LIVE).

"All you can do is just keep playing," Senators coach D.J. Smith said. "We want to get a win to get everyone feeling good. It's not the ideal situation, but no one feels bad for you in this League. We're privileged to play and be in the NHL and we're going to go out there and give it all we've got."

10 now.

The NHL will postpone Sens games vs. New Jersey Tuesday along with Thursday vs. Nashville and Rangers here in Ottawa Saturday because of the COVID-19 outbreak with 10 players in protocol. The club has cancelled its flight to New Jersey.
