Over the next few months, we’ll be breaking down all of the rookies added by the Jets during the draft and as undrafted free agents. We continue today with tight end Kenyon Sadiq. The 21-year old Sadiq is listed at 6’3” and 241 pounds and was the 16th overall pick out of Oregon. He was […]
I would like to formally apologize to the hockey gods for our hubris as Philadelphia Flyers fans. Once the Flyers went up three games to zero in their series with the Pittsburgh Penguins, we got a little cocky. Look, we haven’t been in the Stanley Cup Playoffs in six years. We haven’t had a home playoff game in eight years. We haven’t had a home playoff win in 10 years. As a wise text once mistakenly sent to me said “Im sorry for some things I said and for throwing ketchup at wall. Emotions go...
Well, the Colorado Avalanche have advanced to the second round and will enjoy some time off, and that means it’s time for another installment of Mile High Pollster! First, we will start with the most pressing matter at hand for the Avalanche, and that’s if it will be the Minnesota Wild or the Dallas Stars […]
I have always felt that my blog is a place for my thoughts about hockey and random other things. I never wanted it to cost anything, I wasn't going to make anyone subscribe, and I certainly didn't feel like I had "premium content" that had to be behind a paywall. Even the extensions of this blog - the grassroots hockey coverage and the radio show - are all done without any demand for subscription fees because it wouldn't feel right asking anyone to pay for our goofy content. I do believe de...
The show's final look back at the 2025-26 Blackhawks season.
Former NHL GM Neil Smith joined Vic Morren to reflect on the Jets season.

The New York Yankees are re-arranging their rotation after optioning the struggling Luis Gil, pushing Will Warren back to later in the week and calling up Elmer Rodríguez to make his MLB debut against the Texas Rangers this afternoon. Rodríguez is a consensus top 100 prospect in the league and a top-three prospect in the […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are one win away from punching their ticket to the second round of the playoffs but it is a decision that head coach Rick Tocchet made for Game 5 on Monday that is dominating headlines. And now, that might lead to some interesting conversations this offseason. Matvei Michkov, as well a know by now, was a healthy scratch for the Flyers’ Game 5 in Pittsburgh against the Penguins. It ended up being a loss and now the Flyers’ 3-0 series lead has dwindled to a 3-2 lead ...
The Rangers are in dire need of a game-changing star. But is Brady Tkachuk really the one?

Morning, all! A video of a pair of Yankees fans getting punched in the face at Globe Life Field has gone viral, with the Rangers saying the participants were kicked out of the stadium but declining to comment if they received a long term ban. Wyatt Langford is continuing to progress in his return from […]
Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang have just about done it all over the last 20 years. Of course, they have the three Stanley Cups. All those Conn Smythe’s that come along with it. Crosby recently crossed into the top-5 for NHL playoff scoring. Malkin has the most playoff points of any Russian. In […]
On April 29th in 1982, Vancouver Canucks head coach Roger Neilson surrendered to referee Bob Myers during Game 2 of the Campbell Conference Finals against the Chicago Blackhawks in protest of poor officiating. Stymied by seemingly unjustified penalties, Tiger Williams suggested throwing all of the sticks on the ice. Coach Neilson replied, "No, I've done that before, let's surrender". And with
On April 28th in 1993, Washington Capitals forward Dale Hunter delivered a late shoulder-separating hit on New York Islanders center Pierre Turgeon after the Lady Byng recipient converted Hunter's defensive-end turnover for the Isles 5th goal in Game 6 of the Patrick Division Semifinal. Witnessing the foul firsthand at Nassau Coliseum, the newly appointed Commissioner Gary Bettman assessed a 21
Instead of grabbing firm hold of the third-line center role, Juuso Parssinen failed to even grab hold of an NHL roster spot.
It was a do-or-die night for the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Place after the Anaheim Ducks put them down 3-1 in their first round series with a controversial goal in overtime on Sunday. I don’t think I’m talking out of school when I say that the Oilers hadn’t played their best hockey in the first…

Everybody’s good at something. It’s just a case of figuring out what. Or at least, that’s how it was explained to me growing up. Granted, those explanations often came from coaches who were cutting me from the team, or concerned teachers whispering to my parents, or over the shoulder of horrified potential prom dates as they sprinted away from me. But the lesson stuck. And it turns out that it applies to the NHL. Even in a league with 32 teams that range from model franchises to, um, not that,...
