Who Killed Osama? The Top 10 NHL Suspects
Posted on 4 May 2011 by Corey Krakower.
I wish I could see video of the Osama bin Laden murder just to hear Jack Edwards on NESN do the play by play. “The US troops move in…and BIN LADEN GOES DOWN AS IF SHOT! GET UP! GET UP!” With the recent killing of Osama bin Laden, America has rejoiced, but the identity of who shot him remains unknown. This was a top secret mission with a top secret team, so it really could be anyone. For m...

Sharks vs Kings – Series Preview
Posted on 12 Apr 2011 by Alex Wasserstrom.
It has been quite a season for the San Jose Sharks – from struggling to find consistency to surging into a 4th straight Pacific Division title. This team has a different make-up from Sharks teams of the past in the fact that there is a real sense of improvement as the season progressed. As noted in my season preview, I felt that if the Sharks had to battle for a higher seed, especially wi...

Those Aren’t Rims, They’re Spoilers
Posted on 24 Mar 2011 by Patrick McLellan.
Davis Payne is faced with the difficult task of convincing the members of the St. Louis Blues that they should play hard down the stretch in the role of spoilers. This has got to be agonizing for the second year NHL coach. Nobody (except everyone outside of St. Louis and a handful of people whom follow hockey very closely) planned on the St. Louis Blues finishing the season outside of the playo...

Sharks Add Depth; Poised for More Moves
Posted on 18 Jan 2011 by Alex Wasserstrom.
As the San Jose Sharks are enjoying a two-game win streak, GM Doug Wilson made some moves to increase the team's depth while posturing some future trade packages to acquire a defenseman. San Jose traded away a fifth round pick in the upcoming draft to Atlanta for F Ben Eager. Eager's grit and cup ring is surely the motivation behind the move and will make the Sharks a tougher team to play agai...

Blackhawk Pride? How about Chickenhawk pride…
Posted on 2 May 2010 by Trent Kondo.
Game 1 of the much anticipated series between the offensive heavy Vancouver Canucks and the supposedly equal in the Chicago Blackhawks turned out to be a one sided match to say the least. Throughout the first period the momentum switched back and forth between both teams with fantastic goaltending by both Niemi and Luongo and some very opportunistic chances for both teams. Then the Nuck's struc...

The Rust vs Rest debate, while really a no-brainer when given a choice between the two, was front-and-centre in Thursday night's 5-3 win for the Canucks over the Blackhawks in the first game of their Western Conference Semi-Final … there was rust alright, but surprisingly, it was almost as prevalent in the Hawk's game as it was the Canucks who had the 8 full days off between gam...

PP & PK Very Special … Canucks Up 3 Zip
Posted on 20 Apr 2009 by Mark Gage.
Breaking down the first round match up between the Canucks and Blues the stats told us that of all the categories, it was Specialty Teams where St Louis had a distinct advantage as they had the 8th best Power Play and 3rd best Penalty Killing units in the league while Vancouver plodded along at 16th with a man up and a man down. As you've heard in this space numerous times, stats can be ve...

Team-Win Gives Canucks Game #1
Posted on 16 Apr 2009 by Mark Gage.
While it wasn't very pretty, and the Referees were far too prominent on the night for both team's liking, the Canucks continued to do what they did in the final two games of the regular season … play a very solid team-game and get the job done. GM Place was jacked for this one as the expectations are as high as they have ever been in this city, and some may have liked to see a l...

Bizarre Game = Coach’s Nightmare
Posted on 3 Apr 2009 by Mark Gage.
Something about playing the Ducks just seems to bring out the worst in the Canucks. After a 6-5 shootout win for the Ducks Thursday, you know neither coach was happy with his team, but both gave their guys a pass, at least publicly. For Randy Carlyle, well, his team got a huge two points to stay in 7th place in the West by overcoming a two-goal deficit late in the second and the win was their 8...
