The day of March 18th, 2010 was marked down on the calender of just about every Boston Bruins player.  After all, it would be the first time they would step onto the ice with the Pittsburgh Penguins following Matt Cooke’s vicious check to the head which knocked out the Bruins top forward Marc Savard.
It was [...]

Will it ever end?  It seems as though every other day in the NHL there is another dirty hit that leaves one player injured, another player facing possible discipline, and the rest of the league and its fans asking “how many more players have to go down before something significant is done to stop this?”
We [...]

The twenty-first week of NHL Fantasy 3 Stars is brought to you by the Swedish West Coast, known as Vancouver, as all 3 Stars were born and raised in the great country of Sweden and also happen to play for the Canucks. Don’t worry, we did show some love for other countries and teams as [...]

There is no denying the fact that things can get pretty crazy on the ice in the Kontinental Hockey League, but perhaps nothing compares to what we have seen happening on the benches.  Last time it was the backup goalie dishing out the punishment.  This time it is the backup goalie taking it.
During an opening [...]

The Boston Bruins are fighting for their playoff lives and can use all the help they can get.  So if you expect to leave a game at the TD Garden Arena early, just to beat the traffic, think again.  You better sit you ass back down in your seat and cheer for the home team, [...]

It isn’t everyday that we come across an amazing stick save, but last night’s NHL action provided us with two.
In the Blue Corner, we have four-time Vezina trophy winner, three-time Stanley Cup winner, and two-time Olympic gold medalist, from the New Jersey Devils, Martin Brodeur!
During a battle against their bitter rivals from Manhattan, Brodeur appeared [...]

Life in Nashville couldn’t have started off any worse for Denis Grebeshkov.  Less than a week after being traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the Predators, the newly acquired defenseman took a shot to the groin during a game against the Vancouver Canucks.
Unfortunately, that act of bravery pretty much turned his “meat and potatoes” into [...]

You have your highlight reel shootout goals and your lowlight reel shootout attempts.  A penalty shot (or shootout attempt) is not quite the equivalent to a wide open layup/dunk attempt in basketball, because you have to actually get it past someone, but failing to execute your move and blundering could result in the same type [...]

The twentieth week of NHL Fantasy 3 Stars has two members from Team Canada fresh off their Gold Medal performance, a talented young winger returning from injury and another talented young winger who’s name you should start to become familiar with because you’ll be hearing it a lot in the future.
This weeks honorable mention goes [...]

Cutting across the middle of the ice has never been a good idea in the NHL.  Especially when Matt Cooke of the Pittsburgh Penguins is on the ice.  He was suspended for two games earlier in the season after delivering a vicious check to the head of New York Rangers forward Artem Anisimov.  Yesterday afternoon [...]
