Just days after signing his entry-level contract, one Pittsburgh Penguins prospect earned a distinction for his play this season.

The Pittsburgh Penguins may find themselves in the bottom fifth of the NHL standings, but the opposite is happening in the AHL, where the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins are one of the league's top teams.

San Jose Sharks rookie Macklin Celebrini is currently one point behind Montreal rookie Lane Hutson as the highest-scoring first-year NHLer this season. And in this cover story from THN's 2024 Draft Preview edition, editor-in-chief Ryan Kennedy penned a major feature on Celebrini's development into an elite prospect:

New Team of the Week, HUT Champs, and Warp Speed Cards have been added to NHL 25 Hockey Ultimate Team.

A week ago, the Pittsburgh Penguins went through the NHL Trade Deadline, shuffling the deck with several roster adjustments. Hours later, they got shut out by the Vegas Golden Knights 4-0, despite a solid effort.

Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff, after the 4 Nations break, had a plan to keep his club motivated to make a late run and challenge for a playoff spot. He planned to earn seven points in each five-game block and win the final three games of the regular season to reach 90 points. That plan did not work, as the Sabres fell short in the first five-game block and endured a six-game winless skid before a 3-2 win over Edmonton on Monday.

The Anaheim Ducks had a relatively quiet NHL trade deadline period, as was expected given their current roster construction and their position in the standings during the month leading up to the deadline.

Toronto sent Minten, plus a first and fourth-round pick, to Boston in exchange for Brandon Carlo.

Last month, Quick became the first U.S.-born goaltender to record 400 wins in the league.

Dig a little deeper into Nathan MacKinnon’s arrival at the NHL's 1,000-point plateau, and some impressive details stand out.
