The NHL has unveiled the All-Star Game jerseys for the 2016 version of the game. They are uh … something to look at. Of course, like everything else in the world, Twitter had their opinions about this jersey. Many people are split on the jerseys. I’m on the “these are god awful” side. You know they […]

Every day when you check in on social media or if you pick up your daily newspaper, you are bombarded by terrible news. The news doesn’t discriminate anymore. You may think that it is limited to politics and world events, but even in sports we see news of athletes getting into trouble. It doesn’t make […]

0 comments by on 1/5/2016

When the name Zac Rinaldo is evoked around the NHL, you are bound to get more than a few snide remarks about the player. He isn’t known as one of the most skilled players in the league, but he sure as heck knows what his job is on the Bruins. The job you may ask? […]

0 comments by on 1/4/2016

Everyone knows hockey players are tough SOB’s and are always willing to risk life and limb for a win. That isn’t to say that hockey is great for that fact alone, but it’s definitely compelling for some. For the people who love the warrior aspect of hockey, they must have loved the resolve Daniel Sedin […]

Video: Dylan Larkin fakes Cory Schneider out of his skates for a great goal

0 comments by

This has been a startlingly good year for rookies. Players like Jack Eichel and Connor McDavid were the players expected to blow people’s minds this year. Who would have thought that Dylan Larkin was the player that would be the most highlight worthy halfway through the season? The goal is outstanding on its own, but […]

Are NHL teams not evaluating young players properly?

With Ondrej Palat coming back for the Tampa Bay Lightning, they sent down highly-touted forward Jonathan Drouin to the AHL affiliate in Syracuse. Drouin has had a bit of a tumultuous start to his NHL career to say the least. That isn’t to say Drouin has played badly. It is more to say that he […]

Jonathan Drouin demands to be traded

0 comments by on 1/3/2016

Before the season started, did any of you have Jonathan Drouin as a player who would demand a trade during the season? The young forward has all the promise in the world and it looks like he won’t be able to live out that promise in Tampa Bay. Drouin’s agent Allan Walsh released a statement to […]

Strange: Blue Jackets goalies slip in same spot moments apart

0 comments by

This hasn’t been the best season for the Columbus Blue Jackets. They have already fired their head coach once this season and have seen little to no success with John Tortorella now helming the bench. So when the Blue Jackets faced the top team in the Eastern conference, I wouldn’t blame you for cringing at […]

Every 75 to 76 years the earth experiences a phenomena that we call Halley’s Comet. It’s a sight to behold and is a once in a lifetime occurrence for most of us on Earth. The NHL may have just encountered it’s Halley’s Comet as John Scott, forward for the Arizona Coyotes, has been selected to […]

Mitch Marner lays huge (illegal?) hit on Swedish player

0 comments by on 1/1/2016

The World Junior Championship is like March Madness. Any team can win any given game and all the players have such a strong stake in the game. It is unfortunate though that sometimes the games can see some nastiness. William Nylander got rocked this tournament and Alex DeBrincat decided to give a bit of a […]

When you are considered one of the best coaches in any sport, anything you say or do is amplified to the highest degree possible. Such was the case with Bill Belichick, who skated with Claude Julien today heading into the Winter Classic at Gillette Stadium, and had some good things to say about hockey to […]

Video: Jannik Hansen fined for embellishment

0 comments by

Sports such as soccer understand that there is a bit of embellishment and diving in the game. The NHL in its current landscape doesn’t have any time for that. Jannik Hansen was hit for his second embellishment of the year in the video below. You can pretty clearly see him leave his feet trying to […]

Oilers trade Ben Scrivens to Canadiens for Zack Kassian

0 comments by on 12/28/2015

The trade freeze has been lifted and almost immediately we have ourselves a trade. Ben Scrivens was traded to the Canadiens to assume the backup role while Carey Price is out and Zack Kassian was traded to the Oilers, where he will report to their AHL affiliate in Bakersfield. The trade makes sense on both […]
