Bizarre: Canucks publicly announce they want to trade Chris Higgins

Traditionally when a team wants to make a trade, fans may hear rumors about a deal but the team won’t confirm their intentions until either a deal is done or long after a deal falls through. The Vancouver Canucks have opted for a more public strategy and made it known that they want to trade […]

Which NHL players had the best-selling jerseys in 2015?

The NHL recently unveiled a pretty interesting chart displaying which players had the best-selling jerseys in 2015. The majority of the names and teams represented are about what you’d expect, but there are a few noteworthy points which deserve some analyzing.

Report: Blues may make an offer for Jonathan Drouin

Tampa Bay Lighting forward Jonathan Drouin’s trade request has rival teams salivating at the possibility of acquiring the 20-year-old left winger. The former third overall pick wasn’t given a big opportunity with the Lightning and was recently demoted. Drouin’s still has massive potential and has still managed to score 40 points in 89 NHL games. One […]

Head coach of the Islanders wants to make some roster changes

The New York Islanders have played some decent hockey this season which has been good enough to keep them in the thick of the playoff picture. However, their play hasn’t been good enough to keep pace with the red-hot Capitals and it hasn’t been good enough to create some breathing room in the crowded Eastern […]

Video: Jakub Voracek plays keep away with the linesman

Jakub Voracek has quietly been one of the better players in the league the past few years, scoring at will while remaining a cornerstone of the Philadelphia Flyers. It should come as no surprise that he is also a goofball and one of the more lighthearted players on the team. That was on display against […]

Malkin jokes about Ovechkin’s bad defending

The NHL All-Star Game is fun for several reasons, but one of the best is the fact it creates teammates out of rivals. Evgeni Malkin and Alex Ovechkin aren’t heated enemies, but they do skate for opposing franchises with a pretty colorful recent history. With that in mind, Malkin’s slight dig at Ovechkin’s defense is pretty […]

The Blues are reportedly shopping Kevin Shattenkirk

Kevin Shattenkirk’s name is once again popping up in trade rumors around the NHL. Over the summer, Shattenkirk’s name surfaced several times as the St. Louis Blues reportedly spoke with the New York Rangers and the Philadelphia Flyers about a possible transaction.

Three NHL teams whose goaltending is preventing them from contending

Getting good goaltending is paramount to success. Teams like the New York Rangers, Florida Panthers, and Montreal Canadiens have top-flight goaltenders which has alleviated other weaknesses they might have. Not all teams are so fortunate, as their poor goaltending has cost them spots in the standings, or worse, prevented them from contending at all. Here […]

Kings broadcast displays ridiculous graphic for new players

Intangibles can be a whole lot of things. They can be ludicrous in their description, but they are nonetheless followed by scouts and prognosticators. It is rather odd that a lot of these intangibles only show up when a team is winning and if they aren’t winning we seem to dismiss them. They are either there […]

Video: Jake Muzzin destroys a referee with unintentional hit

Although many people despise referees, we all realize that they are just doing their job. So, when they are trying to get the hell out of the way of a play, they may not be looking where they are going. This is exactly what happened with defenseman Jake Muzzin and referee Kelly Sutherland. It really […]

Awkward: Ryan Johansen and Seth Jones meet up at the airport

Trades happen. They happen all the time. There will be many more trades that happen in this game, but I bet you it will be a long time before the next trade where the two principals in the deal meet up with each other at the airport while they are flying to meet their new […]

I know many of you will come to this article in hopes of seeing big flashy names that were snubbed this year by the league. I could do that, but I will let you in on a little secret: Sidney Crosby didn’t deserve to go to the All-Star Game this year. *GASP* For all of […]
