Elias’ Hat Trick Keeps Devils Hopes Alive
Posted on 2 Apr 2011 by Matt Pellicane.
The New Jersey Devils are certainly doing their part to keep their faint playoff hopes alive. Three goals from Patrik Elias and 34 saves by Johan Hedberg propelled the Devils past the Eastern Conference-leading Philadelphia Flyers on Friday night at the Prudential Center. Elias' hat trick could not have come at a better time, as the Devils must win all of their remaining games and hope that...

Rangers blank the B’s
Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by Jim Mulligan.
Maybe the Bruins should call the schedule maker to change the venues of their April 2nd and 9th games next month. The way this season has gone, if it's the weekend and the Bruins are at home, then chalk up another loss for our hometown team. For a team with the 90+ points – in the top ten of the overall league standings – their weekend home record is a deplorable 1-7-4. Just image w...

Penguins: Is The Current Team Easier To Root For?
Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
As an American society, in all facets of life, we seem to always want a feel-good story. The American Dream of course, is to come from nothing to something, and to make a name for oneself. This is especially true when it comes to sports. Many examples have even turned into movies, including “Radio”, “The Miracle On Ice”, “Secretariat”, and “Rudy...

Rangers’ Little Engine That Could
Posted on 8 Mar 2011 by Margaret DeJesus.
The 2010-2011 Rangers bear a certain resemblance to a popular children's story. The Little Engine That Could in his shiny blue coat of paint embodies a message of the power of hard work coupled with belief in oneself. A small engine can accomplish big things if it tries hard enough. Or as Coach John Tortorella would say, “grind it out.” But belief needs to be channeled into action ...

Rangers Pass the Test
Posted on 6 Mar 2011 by Adam Gavriel.
There’s something about Sundays for the New York Rangers this season. Although their record stands at 5- 6 now on Sundays, the Rangers have managed to outscore their opponents at a clip of 36 to 23. This statistic is due mostly in part to blowout wins of 8-2 (over Edmonton) 7-0 (over the Caps) and today’s 7-0 domination over the Flyers. The funny thing about these blowout wins, they wer...

Jacket Trade Buzz
Posted on 28 Feb 2011 by Jason Wagensveld.
(3:25 pm) The Jackets trade forward Tom Sestito to the Philadelphia Flyers for forwards Greg Moore and Michael Chaput. (1:15 pm) Thanks Klesla for the many great years. Klesla was the Jackets first ever first round pick. He was a good player for the Jackets but never really developed into the player they thought he was going to be. He has experienced some injuries in the past few season...

Hell in the Pacific
Posted on 14 Feb 2011 by Eric Cooney.
The Kings are last place right now in the Pacific Division. They also happen to be right on the bubble of a playoff spot, 9th place in the Western Conference. You might be asking yourself, “What the frack?” The fact is that the Pacific Division is the tightest division in the NHL right now. The Northwest Division used to hold this title, but they've never seen parity quite l...

NHL Poll: Players Don’t Choose Philadelphia (v.2.0)
Posted on 4 Feb 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
The Philadelphia Flyers were born in 1967 thanks to the NHL's expansion doubling the league from 6 to 12 teams. Placing all “Original Six” into the “East” division and tossing all six expansion teams into the “West” may have been a bit odd, but it proves how protective the league was about their history and tradition. The expansion process officially began ...

Jamie Langenbrunner: The First to Go
Posted on 7 Jan 2011 by Mike Luciano.
It's old news that the Devil's captain Jamie Langenbrunner has been asked to waive his no-trade clause. Langenbrunner was a healthy scratch in tonight's 4-2 loss against the Philadelphia Flyers and confirmed himself he's standing by waiting to be traded. It's obviously a sad sight to see Langenbrunner, who's been a part of the organization for almost eight seasons, have his days numbered. When ...

Flyers Vs. Kings Preview, Schenn Shines
Posted on 30 Dec 2010 by Eric Cooney.
The Kings had a 4 game win streak snapped last night in Phoenix as the Pacific Division continues to be the toughest in the league this season. Just 7 points divide 1st place Dallas and last place Phoenix. These numbers are even tighter when you consider the difference in games played by each team. Any way you shake it, the Pacific Division remains the tightest in the NHL. (more…)
