NHL rumors: Oilers pursued Islanders forward before Trent Frederic trade
The Edmonton Oilers made a few solid additions at the NHL trade deadline . They picked up defenseman Jake Walman from the San Jose Sharks and Trent Frederic from the Boston Bruins as their biggest moves. But before they made the Frederic deal, they were poking around a center. Marco D'Amico from RG.org explained why the deal between the Oilers and Islanders fell through. “According to sources close to the situation, the Islanders ultimately decided against the trade for two key reasons. The first was their unwillingness to retain salary on Pageau's $5 million contract, which runs through the 2025–26 season. The second was a lack of interest in dealing veterans for a package centered around draft

I Watched This Game: Demko and depth scoring get Canucks past Islanders
The Vancouver Canucks are still alive. With a win over the New York Islanders on Wednesday night, the Canucks reeled in the St. Louis Blues and Minnesota Wild ever so slightly, bringing them three points back of the Blues and five points back of the Wild. It took some unlikely heroes to get important win over the Islanders. The Canucks got fantastic goaltending from Thatcher Demko but that's not all that unlikely, even if it's been an extremely difficult season for Demko with his litany of injuries.

Canucks lines vs Islanders, March 26, 2025
Jake DeBrusk shares in the team lead in goalscoring with Brock Boeser but, when I talked to him earlier in March, he lamented that he wasn't getting many assists. "That's one thing that's actually been weird is that I haven't had a lot of assists this year," said DeBrusk. It was clear that DeBrusk wasn't satisfied with his season and wanted to bring more to the table. In overtime in New Jersey, he set up a glorious chance for Jonathan Lekkerimäki with just a few seconds left, only for Lekkerimäki to fire it just wide.
