Jared Cowen, the Future is Strong on the Senators BlueLine.
Posted on 20 Dec 2011 by Jonathan Ward.
In 2009 the Ottawa Senators selected from the WHL, Spokane Chiefs defenseman, Jared Cowen. At the time it seemed like a pick that would take years to develop. Cowen wasn’t the best defenseman. He wasn’t ranked among the top defensemen in the draft and was never a big point getter in his junior days. He managed to rack up only a combined 41 points in 3 seasons and then suffered a knee in...

Problem #13 in Montreal
Posted on 19 Dec 2011 by Corey Krakower.
It is generally expected that when things don’t go according to plan, that people look to point the finger at someone else. This is especially prevalent in sports, and even more so in Montreal when it comes to the Canadiens. If the Habs so much as lose 2-3 games in a row, fans will start calling for people to be fired and players to be traded. The most recent scapegoats have been General Mana...

Habs Fire Head Coach Jacques Martin
Posted on 17 Dec 2011 by Corey Krakower.
In a stunning move, Montreal Canadiens General Manager Pierre Gauthier has fired Head Coach Jacques Martin. With the club sitting 11th in the Eastern Conference with a 13-12-7 record, it was time to move the struggling team in a new direction. The word “stunning” is used only because the Canadiens have a reputation of being an old boys club, and so this move perhaps represents a cha...

Devils Have a Big Showing on Scott Niedermayer Night
Posted on 17 Dec 2011 by Jordan DiRisio.
On Scott Niedermayer the Devils confirmed the suspicion that they're hot. The Devils retired the jersey of long time Defenseman Scott Niedermayer and with the Devils playing well there was a positive atmosphere at Prudential Center. But going into the game there was a little concern that Richard Bachman was playing so well he may stymie the Devils and ruin the night. This was not the case. Alth...

Sluggish Jackets lose to struggling Kings 2-1
Posted on 16 Dec 2011 by Dennis Patchett.
Game highlights: Columbus Blue Jackets were a mess. The Kings were ready. The Jackets played an ugly game. The Kings tried hard to fight through the defense that package it back. The Jackets scored and ugly goal. The Kings answered with an ugly (and illegal) goal of their own. The Jacket's couldn't press and the Kings deflected home the game winner. Honestly, the Jackets looked ti...

BACHMAN LEADS THE ROAD CHARGE
Posted on 16 Dec 2011 by Travis Currie.
Whoever thought that Richard Bachman would be brought up from Texas to win three in a row for the Stars so far and put up a .970 SV% with a 0.90 GAA, stand up. Okay now sit down because you're a liar. When Kari Lehtonen was injured in a 3-0 loss to the Coyotes on November 26, the load fell on backup Andrew Raycroft's shoulders and farm hand Richard Bachman took over Raycroft's spot on the bench...
