It's the most over-hyped title in the NHL: The Generational Player. Every high-profile player projected to be a number one overall pick seems to get the label. In 2023, it was Connor Bedard. In '24, Macklin Celebrini. And be ready for Gavin McKenna to be anointed in advance of the 2026 Entry Draft.

Let's now take a step back. What truly defines a generational talent and who are those that are worthy? Who better to dissect that than hockey's most renowned history, Stan Fischler.

In Three Things You Need to Pay Attention To, a milestone and a key injury coming out of the Toronto-Boston game Tuesday, the Oilers get up off the mat and a notable goal in Colorado.

We have injury and league news and wrap up acknowledging a true hero on Veterans/Remembrance Day.
