We’ve seen plenty of athletes wander around their respective cities and interview random people. Most usually revolve around the locals being unable to identify the player, but Vernon Fiddler’s interview takes on a different approach. While Fiddler definitely plays up the “You Don’t Know Who I Am” idea, he also interrupts dates, shoves microphones in faces […]

Brandon Kozun has made the Toronto Maple Leafs roster heading into 2014-15. Kozun has been fairly calm after receiving the news, telling the Toronto Sun that the whole thing won’t really set in until he plays in his first game. While he isn’t surprised he made the team, he was taken back by how expensive […]

Cam Barker has been released from his tryout with the AHL’s Rockford IceHogs. Barker was trying to find a job in North America after spending 2013-14 skating in the KHL. Unfortunately, his tryout with the Chicago Blackhawks a few weeks back didn’t pan out nor did his brief appearance with the IceHogs. Barker last skated in the […]

Here’s a story which won’t play a role this season. The NHL will be adopting wider hash marks on the ice in 2014-15. They tested the wider marks and have since approved them for the upcoming season. What does this mean for all of us? Not much, but it’s not your imagination if you think […]

You’ll be getting a lot more bang for your (nonexistent) buck on the NHL’s mobile platform this year. Starting today, the NHL has rebranded their iOS/Android app, NHL GameCenter as just the NHL app. NHL GameCenter (which comes with a bit of an update on desktop platforms this season) will maintain a presence within the […]

There is such a thing as too much information sometimes, especially when it comes to spilling the beans on your defensive techniques: cutting the cheese. Montreal Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban is one of the best in the game without a doubt, but how? Why is he so effective at what he does? In an interview […]

You can hate P.K. Subban all you want, but his personality is great for the game. In a great example of that, he hosted some French version of “Deal or No Deal.” To help things out, some other NHL players served as models: http://youtu.be/3D-RZNNUjXk We have no clue what is going on here, but it […]

Johnny Boychuk’s trade from the Boston Bruins to the New York Islanders was a pretty big surprise. Trade rumors were swirling around Boychuk for quite some time, but it’s safe to say that very few people correctly guessed that the Islanders would be his new team.

This is unbelievable. An anthem singer in Canada this week fell while singing “O Canada.” But, instead of retreating in embarrassment, Mark Donnelly, didn’t miss a beat:

The state of California is home to the best hockey teams in the Pacific Division. LA won the Stanley Cup last year and Anaheim is a Cup contender. The Sharks are still a good team, although they’ve proven they are maybe the biggest choke artists in the history of hockey. Outside of California, the rest […]

Most hockey fans love to talk about trade rumors. Even those who don’t spend time analyzing and breaking down every plausible or implausible scenario seem to agree that trade rumors are fine for what they are – rumors. However, not everyone is a fan of trade rumors and that includes Philadelphia Flyers GM Ron Hextall. […]
