Pekka Rinne had a rough 2013-14 for the Nashville Predators and that might be putting things lightly. Rinne needed surgery on his hip and then missed additional time after he needed another operation to remove a bacterial infection on the same hip. When Rinne returned, it was clear he was rusty and far from his […]

The 2013-14 season ended on a sour note for the Minnesota Wild, losing to the Chicago Blackhawks in the second round of the playoffs. Though the sting of the loss is still lingering, the Wild wanted to close out the year one a high note and invited their season ticket holders to paint the ice […]

The Chicago Blackhawks had a goal in the bag. At least, that’s what it looked like, but apparently this puck doesn’t obey the laws of physics. How? Here’s another look: There’s really no sense in trying to explain how this happened. It looks like a glitch. Obviously Jonathan Quick practices some real dark magic in […]

Borna Rendulic has made NHL history. That’s pretty impressive considering he hasn’t even played in his first NHL game. As reported by KHL.hr, Rendulic is the first Croatian player to sign a contract with an NHL team.

A hockey player shooting a puck wide of an open net is a fairly common occurrence. It’s especially common if you follow the St. Louis Blues. It is, however, pretty rare to see two players skate in on an empty net when the goalie is pulled and for both men to come up empty.

Serious injuries to noteworthy players brought the topic of visors in the NHL to the forefront of hockey conversation over the last few years. The NHL mandated visors, but allowed players with at least 25 games of experience to decide whether or not they want to don a visor. So, how have things panned out […]

The Minnesota Wild are considering keeping three goaltenders on the roster during the 2014-15 season. Two netminders are already under contract – Niklas Backstrom Josh Harding – and it’s believed that the team will give Darcy Kuemper a new deal. That leaves Ilya Bryzgalov as the odd man out in this three-headed goaltending picture. A team […]

The Pittsburgh Penguins have fired General Manager Ray Shero, via NHL.com. The club hinted at big changes after stumbling out of the playoffs and they lived up to that promise by releasing their GM. However, the team decided to keep head coach Dan Bylsma despite reports suggesting he had been let go. It’s never fun […]

After the San Jose Sharks collapsed (again) in the playoffs, you had to assume the team was going to be making some big changes. The team has already decided to retain their head coach and GM, meaning any substantial changes will have to be made on the ice. One of those changes involves Dan Boyle. […]

Winning a Game 7 on the road during the NHL playoffs is going to make a guy pretty happy. In P.K. Subban’s case, the win put him in such a good mood that he gave Pierre McGuire a big kiss on the cheek during their interview. Watch Pierre giggle after Subban plants one.
