The moment in question occurred when netminder Colin Delia slid to his left whilst corralling an Alex

Chicago Cubs Reportedly Signing Righty Yacksel Rios

NHL Rumor: Steven Stamkos Heads to Devils in Proposed Trade

  The Nashville Predators have turned things around after another horrible start to the season; they're only one point out of a Wild Card spot heading into Saturday's play. But GM Barry Trotz is aware that his team isn't quite a serious contender, and is still considering his options.  One of his biggest trade chips, under the right circumstances, is Steven Stamkos.
