The San Jose Sharks have never competed in the Stanley Cup Final. That fact alone apparently wasn’t enough to keep Sharks fans awake during Game 3 at the SAP Center. You’d think Sharks fans would be struggling to contain their excitement and nerves, but instead sleep seemed to be a fairly popular option during a stoppage […]

The San Jose Sharks can only hope their effort in Game 3 is as awesome as the rally towel the fans will be waving in the stands. Game 3’s towel is a San Jose twist on Sharknado. Via Reddit Hockey: It’s about time there’s a solid Sharknado-San Jose Sharks tie-in.

The Anaheim Ducks are a team looking for a head coach after releasing Bruce Boudreau following the 2015-16 season. Boudreau may have received more than his fair share of the blame for the Ducks’ season, but he certainly had his faults. When asked about what the team is looking for in a new coach, Ryan […]

Game 2 between the Sharks and Penguins was a pretty exciting game which required overtime to settle the score. Despite the great game, the television ratings were pretty much a disaster. Game 2 earned a 1.9 overnight rating on NBCSN which was the lowest for a Stanley Cup Final game in the past four years. […]

The San Jose Sharks haven’t shied away from making some blunt and controversial comments during the playoffs this season. Most of those have come from head coach Pete DeBoer, but Logan Couture got in on the action by accusing Sidney Crosby of cheating during faceoffs. That’s the type of comment you’d expect to hear from […]

Alexander Ovechkin is amazing out on the ice, but it turns out that he’s a pretty solid athlete on the hardwood too. Ovechkin recently competed in a charity basketball game in Russia which was supporting a charity for children with cerebral palsy. Check out his highlights: Not too bad. Basketball does run in Ovie’s family as […]

The Blues are reportedly planning to give Ken Hitchcock a new one-year contract. The team elected that Hitchcock proved enough in the team’s third-round playoff exit to warrant one more year behind the bench. As you might imagine, the decision is a pretty polarizing one in St. Louis. Some fans will be pleased to see […]

The third-round series between the San Jose Sharks and the St. Louis Blues wasn’t exactly a friendly one. Physical, grueling action reigned supreme and there were plenty of questionable/cheap shots after the whistle. Even though the two clubs visibly had a lot of hate, that didn’t stop Marc-Edouard Vlasic from donating to David Backes’ charity after […]

Pulling the goalie is the last move by a desperate hockey team. It signals a time to rally the troops and give your best effort to try and salvage the game. The St. Louis Blues missed that memo and may have turned in a strong example on how not to play with the net empty. […]

Troy Brouwer is having one hell of a playoff run with the Blues and he added to his goal total with an awesome goal against the Sharks. Brouwer was able to bat in a rebound off of Martin Jones for an incredible mid-air tally. Brouwer may have an audition with the Cardinals after the Blues’ […]

The HBK line of Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino, and Phil Kessel has been a dominant force for the Pittsburgh Penguins. The line shares the HBK nickname with WWE legend Shawn Michaels – The Heartbreak Kid – and the Penguins and their fans have had a lot of fan bringing some wrestling flair to hockey. Michaels was […]

Showtime’s “All Access: Quest For The Stanley Cup” aired its first episode on Friday night and overall it was a pretty enjoyable experience. The program, like many before it, took cameras behind the scenes and offered an uncensored view at life in the locker rooms for the four teams competing in the Conference Finals. Unfortunately, […]

Even if the end result is a goal, a good save deserves to be recognized. Martin Jones completely robbed Robby Fabbri with his paddle, but was soon bested by Jori Lehtera. The Sharks went down 1-0, but Jones gave his all to try to keep the score level. [Reddit]
