After having career-ending surgery on his hip, Mike Comrie officially announced his retirement from the NHL as seen on NBC’s Pro Hockey Talk. At just 31, Comrie’s career is ending rather abruptly after spending 10 years in the NHL. Comrie will walk away from hockey with 168 goals in 589 games. He has been mostly […]

But the team needs to evaluate and decide whether Rask is their future in net Being buried on the bench in Boston leads to an abundance of exposure when a player mentions that he’d rather play more. So shouldn’t surprise anyone that Tuuka Rask’s comments to a Finnish newspaper that he’d prefer playing regularly prompted […]

Being JR. The thought befuddles the most level-headed and rationale among us. Successful hockey player, turned commentator, with eyes on the prize of ownership. And last night, he was the honored man in a city known best for triple digit temperatures. Roenick’s comments about wanting to own the club sent ripples of speculation through the […]

Dynamic Swedish center Carl Soderberg has long been the apple of NHL teams’ eyes. Selected in 2004 by the Blues in the NHL Entry Draft, Soderberg has remained in Sweden, eschewing potential US stardom in the NHL. His steadfast choice to stay close to home prompted the prospect watchers at Hockey’s Future to declare he […]

More intrigue in the Phoenix Coyotes sale, and by “intrigue” I mean random happenstance that concerns Jeremy Roenick. As mentioned on Puck Daddy, he was interviewed on local Phoenix radio show “Calling All Sports With Roc And Manuch” regarding the future of the Phoenix Coyotes. He mentioned he was talking to other people who might […]

With more than two weeks away before the trading deadline, there have been plenty names and teams thrown into the rumor mill. Mainstream media, bloggers, and countless fans have already begun to submit their wish lists for their favorite teams. And while many of the trades have the lopsidedness of a video game trade, there […]

Soon, this will be what the the media scrum looks like around Thomas post-game. I honest to God do not care about Tim Thomas’ political views. Everyone’s entitled to their opinion, and that’s fine — that’s what the nation is built upon. It’s always been my philosophy that both political parties should (in theory) […]

If you’re a serious fantasy hockey player you’re probably pretty familiar with Zenon Konopka. If you’re not, you might be wondering why we would dedicate an entire article to the forward from Ottawa. Konopka is known for two things and two things alone – dropping the gloves and sitting in the box. For the knowledgeable […]

Will this be the year Iginla and the Flames finally part ways? It seems like the NHL trade deadline has borrowed a strategy […]

EDIT: To clarify, I was talking about the NBC Game of the Week, not necessarily the NBC Sports Network. They did air a commercial for the network sometime early in the game. Here it is (and it’s pretty good): http://youtube.com/watch?v= XSgrL0ZPE_Q[/youtube] For those who’ve forgotten, NBC signed a rather large partnership deal with […]

There was a day and age when the NHL had 9 rounds in their annual draft, rather than just the 7 that we have now. But this came to an end after the 2004 draft, and the league has never looked back. It makes sense in many regards, as the players drafted so late rarely […]

Do people really want this to go the way of the dodo? The fighting policies in place with USA Hockey are very, very dissimilar to the policies in the NHL. Direct and to the point, they call for removal from the current game and a suspension. Considering that the length of NCAA seasons are just […]

I’m not a Budweiser fan but I may have to reconsider my opinion. Often considered the one of the biggest television moments of the year, the Super Bowl is a fantastic place, albeit a costly one, to show off commercials for your product. And every year Budweiser jumps into our television sets with creative or […]
