Here's how the first-round selections in the 2023 NFL Draft measured up against FanSided's 2023 NFL Draft Big Board featuring the Top 50 players.The first round of the 2023 NFL Draft didn't go exactly as planned, but then again, it never does.Some picks were predictable for valid reasons, such as the Carolina Panthers choosing Bryce Young to revitalize their franchise.

The best hockey player on the planet is currently Connor McDavid.In three year's time speculation will swirl about the potential of him joining the Toronto Maple Leafs.Three years is a long time, so let's just get right to it.In July of 2017, Peter Chiarelli and McDavid came to terms on an eight-year $100 million contract that locks him into playing with the Edmonton Oilers until the conclusion of the 2025-26 season.

It's Day 2 of the 2022 NFL draft and we've got two rounds to get through tonight.The Washington Commanders entered this draft with 8 picks, and will have 7 picks over the next two days.They picked Mississippi State CB Emmanuel Forbes with the 16th overall pick.Washington still has big needs on their offensive line, and that could be the direction they go tonight.

Player Overview
Jack Campbell excelled at several sports in high school.On top of being one of the best football players in Iowa, he also lettered in basketball and track.

EDMONTON, Alberta Darnell Nurse scored at 4:45 of overtime to give the Edmonton Oilers a 5-4 win over the struggling San Jose Sharks on Monday night for their fourth straight win.Mattias Ekholm had two goals, Kailer Yamamoto had a goal and an assist, and Nick Bjugstad also scored to help the Oilers win for the sixth time in seven games.

The Maple Leafs had three full days of no games to rest up and prepare to face the Edmonton Oilers.Coming off a 4-3 win over the Devils, the Oilers presented another challenging team to the blue & white.The Oilers played the best team in the NHL on Thursday night, giving the Bruins a rare home loss, winning 3-2.

There's been plenty of talk surrounding Jack Campbell and his lack of success early on with the Edmonton Oilers.There'd also been talk for weeks leading into the NHL Trade Deadline that the Edmonton Oilers were kicking tires on the availability of San Jose Sharks' defenseman Erik Karlsson.The Oilers and Sharks played each other in an overtime thriller on Monday night, with Campbell getting the win (a shaky one).

Despite their two upcoming games against the San Jose Sharks and Arizona Coyotes, Edmonton Oilers head coach Jay Woodcroft told media that there are no easy games in the NHL, and boy was he right.While his team was able to pull out a win on Monday night against the Sharks, it was far from easy, as they escaped with a 5-4 overtime victory.

SAN JOSE, Calif.(AP) - Connor McDavid had two goals and an assist, and the Edmonton Oilers beat the San Jose Sharks 7-1 on Friday night.Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins each had a goal and two assists, and Klim Kostin, Jesse Puljujarvi, and Ryan McLeod also scored for the Oilers.

Wednesdays are typically lighter days for the NHL.Not this week, though!We've got seven games on the schedule from the NHL, giving us more options than usual.Here are the guys to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups.GOALIE
Stuart Skinner, EDM vs. ARI ($32): My hope is that, by this point, the Oilers realize Skinner should be their top goalie, not Jack Campbell.

For what it's worth, I don't think anyone needs to learn how to love goalies.Probably one of the first things you loved about hockey was the personality of the goaltender masks and gear, and the circus like saves that we see on a nightly basis around the league.Having confidence in Leafs goaltenders is another beast entirely, and with Matt Murray getting yanked after giving up 4 goals on 8 shots in Tuesday night's game, it's going to be a discussion that will be regularly had from now until the playoffs.

Toronto Maple Leafs netminder Matt Murray is having a tough stretch right now and it's starting to remind us of Jack Campbell.Toronto Maple Leafs goaltenders have been loved throughout the history of the franchise.From Turk Broda, Terry Sawchuk, Johnny Bower, Felix Potvin, Curtis Joseph and even Jack Campbell, the city has a soft spot for the netminder.

P.K. Subban watches a 39-year-old Mark Giordano log big minutes for a contending NHL club and thinks "I could do that."The Toronto Maple Leafs seemed to have thought otherwise."I was pretty surprised," Subban said."I felt I could have helped a number of teams.As a free agent, I wanted to play on a contending team.

It's a new year so we are going to try out something new over here at TLN and that is a bit of a day after the game stats dump in addition to the postgame musings provided by Nick Alberga the night of the game.In some ways, it seems fitting that we are rolling this out on a game that in many ways is an outlier, as 5-5 games in regulation aren't typical of what we see in the NHL and with the game being decided by a shootout the conclusion was basically a coin flip anyway.

To say that that the expectations bar was set low for Leafs goaltending coming into this season is a bit of an understatement.The narrative was that Matt Murray was an oft-injured, borderline AHL goaltender on a terrible contract.To some extent, I personally took the bait on that, hook, line, and sinker.

At the beginning of November, I wrote about six former Maple Leafs and how they have been performing with the new teams that they either signed with in the off-season or in Petr Mrazek's case, got traded to in the off-season.From guys like Jack Campbell with the Oilers to Colin Blackwell with the Blackhawks, I went over all six players, how they played in the month of November, as well as their season totals through the season's first two months.

The Toronto Maple Leafs look like Stanley Cup contenders lately and Matt Murray has a lot to do with that.There wasn't a Toronto Maple Leafs fan who wasn't a little skeptical ( OK, maybe one) when the team decided to make Matt Murray its starter this season, but he's currently living up to expectations.

Did you know that, after last night's game, Matt Murray was 10th in the NHL among goaltenders for goals saved above average (GSAA) with a +5.11?And if you scroll down a bit, you'll see that Ilya Samsonov with 8 games played is 19th in the league with a +3.31.? This is per Natural Stat Trick, in all situations.

More than a dozen goaltenders have challenged Jonathan Quick's hold on the Kings' net.Not one has succeeded.Erik Ersberg couldn't beat him out for the No. 1 job.Nor could Jason LaBarbera, Jonathan Bernier, Ben Scrivens, Peter Budaj, Ben Bishop, Jeff Zatkoff, Martin Jones, Jhonas Enroth, Jack Campbell, Darcy Kuemper or, most recently, Cal Petersen.

The Rangers came into Wednesday 4-1-1 in their last six games.The Ducks came into Wednesday without a single regulation in their last nineteen games, i.e. all season.The Rangers roster has many scoring threats, and the Ducks roster has been arguably the worst defense in the NHL.The Ducks defeated the Rangers 3-2, obviously.

Good evening Toronto Maple Leafs fans and welcome to the final game chat of the annual California road trip.After kicking it off with a train ride to Winnipeg where they won, the Leafs headed west to the Nevada desert and lost to the Golden Knights 3-1.Then a few days off and the San Francisco Bay area was next where the Leafs lose to the San Jose Sharks 4-3 in overtime.

However, Samsonov has been impressive as the number-one starter for Toronto since game two of the season.The 2022-23 season got off to a bumpy start for the Maple Leafs, losing their first game of the season and then losing goaltender Matt Murray to injury.The Toronto Maple Leafs decided to pass on Jack Campbell when he became an unrestricted free agent this past summer.
