With the basketball team’s season over, and with the NCAA wrestling tournament ahead, we sit currently in a semi lull between major sporting events that normally might have been filled with idle football chatter. Instead, the men’s and women’s hockey teams are keeping us all on our toes! First up, the women. The women’s hockey […]
Quinn Hughes is redefining what it means to be an NHL defenseman, and his latest milestone, 60 assists in 60 games, is the clearest evidence yet that he belongs at the top of the league's blue line hierarchy.

Do the Tampa Bay Lightning have a need for another forward? Possibly. The status of Zemgus Girgensons is still unknown, and with the team getting ready to head out west, it’s possible they may burn another recall to strengthen their forward depth. If Girgensons isn’t ready to go, it could be time for Dylan Duke to get a nice look with the Bolts.

Last Devils Game On Saturday night the Devils defeated the Kings 6-4. It was the Devils first win after losing their last 2 games in a row. After Jacob Markstrom started 7 games in a row for the Devils, (why, just why Sheldon “I hope you’ll be out of a job soon” Keefe?) Jake Allen […]
When Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin received his five-game suspension for slashing Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin a week-and-a-half ago, the timing of it could not have possibly been worse.

BO Groulx is the best Maple Leaf ever.
Even despite losing Marie-Philip Poulin to a lower-body injury in the first period, the Montreal Victoire held a 3-0 lead into the third period. The Boston Fleet scored three times in the third period, including the tying goal with 14.8 seconds left before taking the game in overtime where Ella Huber ended the game 1:33 into the extra period.

*The Flyers had one job this weekend if they wanted to get themselves back into the playoff race, and just you case you had any misconceptions about where this team is, progress-wise, they blew it. Just completely and totally blew it. Nice job all around. RECAP ! *If you’re a subscriber over at Charlie’s website you can read his thoughts on Saturday’s loss.

The Islanders begin their last road “trip” of the regular season as they head north of the border for visits to tanking Toronto and still playoff-holding Montreal and playoff-hopeful Ottawa.

First period The passes are just as sloppy as they were last night, which isn’t a good sign early in this one. Kirby Dach takes a hit he’s not expecting from Jeffrey Viel and takes a few seconds to get back up. Perhaps just winded. Apparently not as he’s gone to the dressing room.
