Kyle Larson Takes Checkered Flag At Texas

Kyle Larson is the first driver to advance to the Championship Four at Phoenix on Nov. 7. This is because the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver found a way to win once again on Sunday. Several times during the race, it felt like Larson could just will his way up the field. That was not far […...


Andrei Svechnikov Nets Pivotal Goal Saturday

Andrei Svechnikov scored with six minutes left in Saturday night's game as the Carolina Hurricanes went on to defeat Nashville 3-2. This gave Carolina two wins in as many games but more importantly, Svechnikov is making an incredible impact. He has three goals, 12 scoring chances, and 11 shots on goal. Let that sink in. […...


Frederik Andersen Shines and Steals Win for Carolina

Frederik Andersen was steady on Thursday night but on Saturday night he stole the show in a win versus the Nashville Predators. The Carolina Hurricanes' goaltender stopped 38 of 40 shots including several point-blank opportunities. Andersen kept Carolina in this game while their offense found its groove at the right time. No one knew what […...


Juuse Saros Yields Two Goals as Nashville Loses Again

Juuse Saros made a few highlight saves but again was handed a loss on Saturday. He allowed just two goals on 31 shots. However, the Nashville Predators could manage just one tally on the night. Saros now has two losses on the season in two starts. The goal he gave up to Andrei Svechnikov just […...


Thomas Chabot Plays a Ton in Ottawa Loss Saturday

Thomas Chabot is normally utilized a lot by Ottawa Senators' coach D.J. Smith. On Saturday night, the defenseman played over 28 minutes (28:13) in the 3-1 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. That included 92 seconds on the power play. The only good news is that Chabot was spared from playing on the penalty kill. […...


Anton Forsberg Highlight Save Does Not Mask Loss

Anton Forsberg made an incredible save on John Tavares Saturday night. However, it was not enough as the Ottawa Senators' goaltender allowed three goals on 29 shots. The goalie may have been Ottawa's best player on the ice but even that was not enough. His record dropped to 1-1 on the season. Forsberg does look […...


Josh Norris Scores in Ottawa Loss to Toronto

Josh Norris did not have the best of games but a lapse in Toronto's penalty kill allowed an opportunity. Norris was left wide-open down the middle and scored a power-play goal past Jack Campbell. The center had three shots on goal on the night while playing 18:39. Also, Norris was 6-for-13 on faceoffs while generating […...


Alexander Kerfoot Two-Point Night Keys Toronto Win

Alexander Kerfoot just needed one shot to make an impact. He only had one opportunity and the center made the most of it. His goal helped Toronto to a 3-1 home win over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday night. Kerfoot had struggled a bit in the early going but was allowed to rest a bit […...


William Nylander Assists Again In Toronto Maple Leafs Win

William Nylander keeps stepping up his game. After an excellent first-round against the Montreal Canadiens last playoff, Nylander has played even better this first week of the NHL season. Out of the nine goals, Toronto has scored this season, William Nylander has figured in on five of those. Something lost in the proficiency is this. […...


Jack Campbell Stellar in Net Again for Toronto Maple Leafs

Jack Campbell enjoyed another excellent start in net for the Toronto Maple Leafs. He stopped all but one shot in the 3-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday night. Campbell has allowed just one goal this season in two appearances. Toronto's goaltender raised his record to 22-5-3 since joining the Maple Leafs. With the […...


Connor McDavid Nets Hat Trick in Edmonton Win

Connor McDavid scored three goals in the 5-2 Edmonton Oilers victory over the Calgary Flames on Saturday night.

Kevin Harvick Receives A Warning Heading Into Texas

Kevin Harvick is another one of those drivers that could experience much place differential on Sunday at the intermediate 1.5-mile track. The Texas course has Harvick starting 24th. This is after NASCAR held a phone conference telling him and Chase Elliott to cool their jets this weekend or else. Will that get Harvick to focus […...


Daniel Suarez One To Try At Texas?

Daniel Suarez had a 2019 to remember at the Texas Motorsports Speedway. He finished third both times after starting fourth and seventh. Now, 2020 featured the TrackHouse Racing driver having a positive place differential. At least, Suarez has run well. He had been in the top ten during both races last year. If the No. […...


Erik Jones A Popular Choice At Texas

With more and more research being done, it appears Eric Jones is one of those choices with increasing ownership. The Richard Petty Motorsports Racing driver starts back in 21st on Sunday. Jones has six top-ten results in his last seven races on the 1.5-mile intermediate course. Texas has been good to Jones as he has […...


Kurt Busch's Consistency At Texas Is Uncanny

Kurt Busch had issues at Texas previously in his career. Yet, in his last six races, the elder Busch has finished in the top ten every single time. That is why his average finish is 7.83. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver begins Sunday from the 17th spot. It is expected that the Kurt Busch car […...


Austin Dillon Primed For Good Result At Texas

Austin Dillon tends to put it more together at Texas than other tracks. He led 22 laps en route to a win last year on the 1.5-mile intermediate track. The good news is that begins the race 15th on Sunday. The even better news is that Dillon has finished on the lead lap five consecutive […...


Alex Bowman Tough To Avoid At Texas

Alex Bowman has endured a mixed bag of results at Texas. He does have fifth-place finishes in the last two Fall races. Now, the problem is that pesky alternator issue.

Matt DiBenedetto Might Surprise At Texas On Sunday

Matt DiBenedetto had the speed and downforce to finish eighth last fall at Texas. He even led a couple of laps as the Wood Brothers Racing driver did well on the quad-oval course.

William Byron Could Lurk Up Front On Sunday At Texas

William Byron has just two top-10 finishes in six races at Texas Motor Speedway. The No. 24 car's best result was sixth in 2019. He also led 15 laps then and had one of the fastest cars during the early and middle portions of the race. The problem for Byron is that pesky alternator, with […...


Christopher Bell Is One To Watch At Texas

Chris Buescher Begins 10th On Sunday At Texas

Some were surprised that Chris Buescher is starting 10th on Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway.

His best finish is 15th on the track, and Buescher has only […...


Tyler Reddick Expects To Thrive At Texas

Tyler Reddick's car runs well at Texas Motor Speedway. His 15th in the Fall race after a second last year cemented that notion. Reddick was in the top ten before some bad luck befell him late in that race. The Richard Childress Racing driver starts ninth on Sunday. His No. 8 car could be one […...


Martin Truex Jr. A Reasonable Choice At Texas

Martin Truex Jr. has never won on the Texas Motor Speedway course. One would think a low-maintenance intermediate track would be good for the No. 19 car. Honestly, it has. He did have a second-place finish during the Fall race last year. Truex Jr. led 53 laps as well. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver starts […...


Brad Keselowski Unlikely To Win Again At Texas

Brad Keselowski starts from the seventh position on Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway. He qualifies third among the other Team Penske drivers. Keselowski has never won at the track but did finish ninth and sixth last year. He has two DNF"s in the last six races on the course as well. Again, he did lead […...


Chase Elliott Begins Sixth At Texas On Sunday

Chase Elliott managed to make the Round of 8 despite some run-ins with Kevin Harvick. Now, can the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver does not have the greatest results at Texas.

Joey Logano Should Be Up Front At Texas On Sunday

Joey Logano has not won at Texas Motor Speedway since 2014 but he keeps coming close time and time again. The Team Penske driver has eight top six results in his last ten races on the track. Logano's No. 22 car has been constantly up front in stages. However, he has only led 4.43% of […...


Ryan Blaney Drives Remarkably Well At Texas

Most might be surprised with how Ryan Blaney has fared at the 1.5-mile speedway at Texas. Is he sort of the forgotten driver? That's somewhat true. Blaney has five top ten results in his last six races with a driver rating that exceeds 110. The Team Penske driver also has led 12.71% of the laps […...
