Flyers GM isn’t planning on copying the Penguins

0 comments by on 6/19/2016

Imitation might be the sincerest form of flattery, but it isn’t always the best way to win a Stanley Cup. The Pittsburgh Penguins defeated the San Jose Sharks in the Stanley Cup Final with a lethal combination of talent and speed. Focusing on speed isn’t exactly a new approach in the NHL, but the Penguins and their […]

0 comments by on 6/15/2016

The Penguins already dented the Stanley Cup

0 comments by

The Stanley Cup has been through a lot. It has spent time in a swimming pool, it’s been used as an ice cream bowl and it was accidentally lit on fire. Those are just a few of the incredibly ridiculous, yet true stories of the legendary trophy. All hockey fans should take some time to review […]

Erik Karlsson hopes to take his game to the next level in 2016-17

0 comments by

Erik Karlsson was outstanding again in 2015-16 and was nominated for the Norris Trophy as a result. His 82 points (16 goals, 66 assists) in 82 games were an insane total for a defenseman, besting all players at his position while tying Joe Thornton for fourth-most points in the league. With numbers like these, Karlsson should […]
