*The Flyers were without Sean Couturier for that one, as he’s out with an upper-body injury. No update yet as far as his timeline is concerned, but that’s something to keep an eye on. [ BSH ]

Here are your Pens Points for this Friday morning… Kris Letang’s declining performance has become a hot-button topic for Pittsburgh Penguins fans, and for good reason. Despite the workout/exercise regimen and career accomplishments, he is not the player he was five or 10 years ago. Poor decision-making and defensive struggles have made him a liability […]

Editor’s note: this Mick Cronin article originally ran on Feb. 20, but is now updated with the reporting conducted after UCLA’s Big Ten Tournament elimination. From the outside looking in, if UCLA and their head Men’s Basketball Coach, Mick Cronin, parted ways, perhaps most of those involved would be happier. We know that Cronin seemingly […]

Recap of the game.
Was it a perfect win for the Tampa Bay Lightning? No, but they took care of business as they helped Vancouver get one step closer to the best odds in the draft lottery downing the Canucks, 6-2. Six different players scored for the Lightning and Nikita Kucherov posted a three-point night in the victory. Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 19-of-21 for the victory.
There were some struggled along the way as Vancouver was able to pin them in the zone for stretches at times. The passing wasn’t as cris...

This one suuuucks. Brady Tkachuk’s goal with 11 seconds left was a gut punch, but the Islanders squandered two leads, going up in the second period thanks to Matthew Schaefer, and then again early in the third thanks to Brayden Schenn. But Schenn’s goal was the ONLY SHOT ON GOAL FOR THE ISLANDERS IN THE […]
Tkaptain Tklutch!
Arber Xhekaj's days with the Montreal Canadiens seem to be coming to an end. At least according to Tony Marinaro of TVA Sports, who said this week, "Something's going to happen" with the hard-hitting defenseman's future. "I think that at some point, the Canadiens are going to have to make a decision [about Xhekaj]," Marinaro said during the JiC show. "I don't think Xhekaj has a future with the Canadiens. I wouldn't be surprised if something happens during draft w...

Juraj Slafkovský gets Montreal’s first great scoring chance off the ensuing faceoff thanks to a lobbed saucer pass across the top of the crease from Nick Suzuki.
Brendan Gallagher tips a point...
Igor Shesterkin did everything he could to keep this game close, but the Rangers’ bad habits—and a few brutal bounces—sent them to yet another defeat.
