Today’s Games

Slate Overview

Happy Saturday Grinders! We have plenty of action on this Saturday, with a two-game NFL slate, a six-game NBA slate, and of course my favorite, an eleven-game NHL slate! The Senators, Canucks, and Avalanche are on the second half of a back to back. In terms of the injury front, the big news is that Max Pacioretty and Cole Caufield are both out for the year. Tyler Bertuzzi has also been ruled out. Roope Hintz and Cale Makar are the most newsworthy questionable pieces. Makar skated in practice yesterday, and Hintz participated in morning skate today. My lean is that they both play today. As always, check out our NHL Discord channel for the most up to date information regarding today’s slate.
