With the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning deadlocked at two wins apiece after four games, the series has become the talk of NHL circles as not just the most entertaining and fiery series of the first round, but possibly the most even series in recent memory. The teams boasted 106 points each in the regular season, though if you looked under the hood you would see a sizable gap in the ability to consistently control play, favouring Tampa Bay. Yet the series has reflected much clo...

As the Edmonton Oilers forced a Game 6 and kept their season alive on Tuesday night with their 4-1 win over the Anahiem Ducks, fans were left with just another questionable decision from the officials.

The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the New York Yankees scored three runs. The Yankees got the customary two-out first inning run that the generous Rangers hand out every game.
