Fans of the Washington Capitals aren’t going to want to hear or acknowledge this stat. The Capitals lost Game 7 to the New York Rangers after failing to close the series out with a two-game lead.

0 comments by

Here’s a reminder that Ilya Kovalchuk is still really, really good. Russia was competing against Belarus during the World Hockey Championships and Kovalchuk scored a pretty awesome goal without even looking at the net. Kovalchuk drifted in and completely sold the fact he was going to pass. One slick wrister later, Kovalchuk tallied a nifty […]

The Wild never led in the series against the Blackhawks. Not even for one […]
