The Chicago Blackhawks kick off a four-game road trip Tuesday night against the New York Islanders. And oh yeah, top prospect Anton Frondell is officially in the lineup tonight for his NHL debut! Since the Blackhawks last saw the Islanders at the end of December, their points percentage has ticked up slightly from .590 to .599, but they’ve still slid in the standings, going from third in the Metropolitan Division to just outside the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Det...

Normally the Rockets scoring 124 in regulation time would signal a win. Normally, though, the team wouldn’t give up 41 points in the first quarter, while only scoring 21 points themselves. That’s truly awful offense AND defense. The deficit would grow to over 22 points, but the Rockets, to their credit, did in fact come […]

The Sacramento or wherever they’re playing this […]
