Bruins explode in the 2nd, hold off Leafs
Posted on 6 Mar 2012 by Michael Thibault.
Seven goals and three fights. That is what happened in the 2nd period of tonight's game in Toronto. It was the type of hockey that reminded us of what the Bruins are capable of, and how the Bruins were playing every period and every game a few months ago. They looked quick, confident, energetic, physical, basically everything you want your hockey team to be. The B's fell behind early in the 2n...

Toronto Maple Leafs’ Off-season Primer
Posted on 28 Jun 2011 by Ben Fisher.
The Toronto Maple Leafs arrive at the July 1 opening of the free agency period in an all-too-familiar position: as a team looking to be active, but with precious few appealing free agent options and even fewer coveted trade assets. GM Brian Burke has already demonstrated through his draft day acquisition of John-Michael Liles that he is firmly set in a win-now mentality. But, as the Leafs have ...

The Playoff Push is Over, Now What?
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Ben Fisher.
It’s official: this Leafs’ season will now end just as the past five have before it – with the team on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. Yet there’s an optimism surrounding the club among even the most hardened of Buds’ supporters that has been lacking before. They see a star player (Phil Kessel) suddenly playing like a star player, several talented young wingers (Clarke ...

Leafs Playoff Ride Breaks Down in the Motor City
Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by RJ Emptage.
With one goal absorbing the mind-set of an entire team, the Toronto Maple Leafs rolled into the Motor City on a quest to keep pace within their current Eastern Conference Playoff dash. As the Buffalo Sabres, and Carolina Hurricanes regained ground with victories on Friday and with both teams in action tonight, the task at hand once again became vital to the post-season life of the 2010-2011 Map...

Lack of Goals Costs Canes Again
Posted on 17 Mar 2011 by Brad Kurtzberg.
It's been the same old song for the Carolina Hurricanes lately: they just can't seem to score enough goals to win hockey games. The same problem reared it's ugly head again Wednesday night as the Canes fell to the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-1 in a crucial game in the race for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. While the playoff race enters the final 10 games, the Hurricanes are mire...

Leafs Embark on Tough Road to Postseason
Posted on 12 Mar 2011 by Ben Fisher.
This may sound like heresy with just three weeks remaining to sort out tight playoff races in both the Eastern and Western Conferences, but is anyone else a little tired of this breathless notion of every game down the stretch being a ‘must-win’ for those teams involved in the chase? Don’t get me wrong, these are the most critical games of the year. Particularly in Toronto, the Air Canada...

Forgotten “Silent” Jay
Posted on 10 Mar 2011 by Patrick McLellan.
Critics, fans, and writers all across Blues nation have been ranting and raving about the great job that Doug Armstrong did in acquiring Chris Stewart and Kevin Shattenkirk from the Colorado Avalanche on February 19 in exchange for Jay McClement, Eric Johnson, and a conditional first round pick. For the time being, this trade looks great for St. Louis. They receive a good 22-year-old puck movin...

Blackhawks Deliver A Beatdown
Posted on 6 Mar 2011 by Anna Santiago.
Even though they had just played the Hurricanes the night before, the Chicago Blackhawks exploded onto the ice in Toronto like a team with a purpose. Just over a minute into the 1st period, Marian Hossa snapped a wristshot past James Reimer and the Blackhawks took an early lead. Leafs fans barely got a chance to register the goal when Michael Frolik took a feed from Troy Brouwer and buried it i...

Leafs’ Trade Deadline Game Plan
Posted on 19 Feb 2011 by Ben Fisher.
Brian Burke has long been a proponent of the “why wait until the last minute” mindset when it comes to the NHL trade deadline, and this year has been no different. Even as his Maple Leafs make a charge into play-off contention, the team’s GM had had a busy few weeks of working the phones and already has three significant deals under his belt to show for it. Whether or not the trades actua...

Kings Trade Deadline Guide
Posted on 18 Feb 2011 by Eric Cooney.
I wrote an Early Trade Deadline Guide about a month ago and since then everything has absolutely, 100%… stayed the same. Rumors have come and gone, but the roster remains the same, for now. However, the Kings are still in the thick of the race and remain buyers come the deadline. If you're interested in the in-depth analysis of the Kings assets, check out the first link above. Aft...

Busy Day in Leafs Land: A Waiving, A Trade and a Heart Scare
Posted on 10 Feb 2011 by Ben Fisher.
Pity poor John Mitchell, possibly the only Leaf to ever fall under the radar. The third-year Leaf’s placement on waivers yesterday – effectively signalling the end of his Toronto tenure – was quickly overshadowed by Brian Burke’s ensuing trade of Francois Beauchemin to Anaheim, a worrisome heart scare on the part of Jonas Gustavsson and other rampant trade speculation on what was a news...

MY SOLUTION ( NHL ALL STAR GAME )
Posted on 27 Jan 2011 by Travis Currie.
Most of us consider the Holy Grail of hockey to be the Stanley Cup. But really, it's attainable, we all know where it is, we've all seen it wether live or in person, and we know by exactly what day on the hockey calendar it's going to appear. So really, wouldn't the REAL Holy Grail be this: How do we make the NHL All Star Game more exciting ? After all, nobody has figured it out yet, and nobody...
