The Texas DMV is currently eliminating specialty license plates which fail to meet the criteria of 200 buyers a year. Apparently the Dallas Stars’ plate falls into the category of plates which have […]

Steve Mason won a lot of Philadelphia Flyers fans over with his performance in the playoffs this past season. Evidently, Jeremy Roenick isn’t one of them. Roenick commented on Philadelphia’s netminding and he was rather blunt (go figure) about his opinion of Mason.

Were the new $10.5 million contracts for Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane a bargain? Apparently they could have asked for $13.8 million each, but they wanted to keep the “puzzle” together. It’s nice of them to take a cut in salary, but how will they ever get by on $10.5 million a year?

Even more obvious, as the already difficult Central Division improves around them, Kevin Cheveldayoff has done very little to improve his team’s chances for the upcoming campaign, instead choosing to rely on drafting and player development to turn the Jets into a contender someday.

The latest video promoting EA’s NHL 15 shows off the game’s true hockey physics. It looks pretty cool, but we’ll have to wait and see how the “true” physics actually look and feel before passing judgement. You really have to hope EA didn’t go too over the top which could result in this enhancement potentially […]

Sabres fans really love their hockey. How can you tell? Check out this photo of over 10,000 people attending a scrimmage for the team’s prospects. Yes, a crowd which flowed into the upper level of the arena came to watch a meaningless game in July. Now that’s dedication.
