Every year a new story begins in April and ends in June. Each time it’s written differently. It will have new twists, new characters, and new champions. I am of course talking about the playoffs.
And, like every story, the NHL playoffs has a few heroes. But who are those key players? What did they accomplish? [...]

The Eastern Conference was full of upsets. The most shocking was Washington losing to Montreal. However, there were two others. Philadelphia beat New Jersey and Boston beat Buffalo. This leaves the four, six, seven, and eight seeds in the conference semi finals.
The interesting thing is that the six and seven seeds (Boston and Philly respectively) [...]

With the playoffs starting, there are many people that are going to be looking forward to going to games. Usually, you can go to the team’s website and buy tickets, but what happens when the game is sold out? Is there anything that you can do to get tickets to a game?
The answer is a [...]

#3. Boston Bruins
This isn’t something that I would have predicted a few weeks ago. Many fans didn’t even think they would make the playoffs. In the month of January, they only won three games and went ten consecutive games without a win between late January and early February.
Recently, that terrible play hasn’t existed. They have [...]

With the NHL finally entering the playoffs, there are many teams fighting for the Stanley Cup. For the next month and a half, all attention will be put on the playoffs as fans watch their favorite teams make cup runs.
The thing we can’t forget is that many other teams missed the playoffs. These teams have [...]

The Edmonton Oilers have had a tough season. They finished with the worst record in the NHL, and struggled in all areas of their game. Offensively, they were 27th in the NHL, and defensively they were dead last. They were one of the first teams to be counted out of the playoffs, and many fans [...]

A few months ago, the standings were a lot different. The Red Wings weren’t in the top eight of the Western Conference, the Avalanche were competing against Vancouver for the division lead, and the Flyers still had their goalies.
All of that has changed. The Red Wings have risen from ninth in the Western Conference, all [...]

With the final games of the season getting ready to be played, there aren’t a lot of entertaining games that we can look forward to. At this point, you’re probably going to ignore most of the games today and not watch another game until the playoffs (if you’re team is in).
I can understand that. At [...]

Since the season is coming to a close, and everything has pretty much been decided, there really isn’t a lot for me to say. Everything I could write about has already been talked about so much that I won’t be able to provide anything useful or entertaining.
I have a couple of articles planned though. Over [...]

After a season full of injuries and questions, the Detroit Red Wings defeated the Columbus Blue Jackets in a shootout to win their 43rd game of the season. With 14 OT losses, this puts the Wings at 100 points on the season.
This is the tenth consecutive 100 point season for the Wings, and their 16th [...]
