Semyon Varlamov looked like he was going to steal a win for the Avalanche against the Wild on Monday night. Mikael Granlund had a different idea, calling on an incredible individual effort to give the Wild a huge victory. What you don’t see here is Granlund take the puck back to the boards in […]

What an incredible ceremony before Game 3 between the Lightning and Canadiens. It’s really a shame networks in the United States skip the festivities as this ceremony was truly a work of art.

There have been some pretty odd NHL memorabilia auctions on eBay over the years. You can add this auction for the cup from Tyler Seguin’s jock strap to the list. The item, which was apparently worn by Seguin during his time with the Boston Bruins, is currently listed on eBay with a sale price of […]

Move over Joel Quenneville. There’s a new incident below the belt which has everyone talking. Watch as Milan Lucic spears Danny Dekeyser in a very sensitive area. If Quenneville’s earned a $25,000 fine, what does this mean for Lucic? Probably not much because this is the NHL and that’s how things work.

Chicago Blackhawks head coach Joel Quenneville has been $25,000 for inappropriate conduct during Game 1 against the St. Louis Blues. Quenneville was animated on the bench several times during his team’s defeat, but the fine is likely due to the coach grabbing himself while shouting at the officials. Here’s what he did in GIF form, […]

Incredible save from Corey Crawford on Valdimir Tarasenko. It looked like an easy goal for the Blues, but Crawford (and his wrist) had other intentions.

Gary Bettman is a busy man. So busy that he simply can’t take his eyes off his phone while attending Game 1 between the Blues and Blackhawks.

The Calgary Flames traded Jay Bouwmeester to the St. Louis Blues a little over one year ago. In exchange, the Flames received a conditional first-round pick, Mark Cundari and goaltender Reto Berra. The trade was supposed to begin the rebuilding effort in Calgary, but many believed the Blues escaped with a nice asset for an […]

The Western Conference has been labeled the more difficult of the two conferences in 2013-14. That point is certainly debatable, but several of the league’s top teams call the Western Conference home. Will this regular season success translate into a Stanley Cup for one of these Western teams? We’re not so sure. Here are eight […]

Dustin Byfuglien has been used a forward and a defenseman throughout the 2013-14 season. In January, the Jets moved Big Buff up front while still using him on the point with the man advantage. His primary role shifted to forward during 5-on-5 play after serving as a defenseman for a little over three years. Where […]

Connor Knapp will back Matt Hackett as the Sabres play in their 81st game of the season. Knapp joins an enormous list of goaltenders who […]
