The National Hockey League season isn’t even two months old, but some teams are failing to meet expectations. There are teams who have done far better than expected, and others that expected to be playoff contenders that are struggling to win games at all. We saw some big money get handed out to free agents. [...]
Earlier today, I wrote a piece about a long lost classic, the sixth game of the 1975 World Series between Boston and Cincinnati. That game will forever be known for Carlton Fisk jumping, twisting and gyrating in an effort to keep his long fly ball down the left field line fair and not just a [...]
Every sports fan has been in this position at some point in their life: their favorite team has taken a guy that would be better suited to cleaning the bathroom than being a first round draft choice. Even worse, the guy they picked plays a position that they already have strength and numbers at, while [...]
The Stanley Cup is the championship trophy given to the National Hockey League champions. The Stanley Cup is named after Lord Stanley of Preston, who was the Governor-General of Canada from 1888 to 1893. The Cup was first awarded in 1893 to the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association on behalf of the Montreal Athletic Club. Stanley [...]
The French Connection was irrevocably broken one Sunday afternoon in March this year. Rick Martin, one third of the most famous line in Buffalo Sabres history, died Sunday afternoon in a car accident that happened in Clarence, New York, a suburb of Buffalo. Reports say that Martin had a medical emergency before the accident, where [...]
The Toronto Maple Leafs are doing their best to get a quick start to the 2011-12 National Hockey League season. After slow starts the past few years doomed the team from making the playoffs (which they’ve missed every since since the 2003-04 season), the Leafs would inevitably get hot in the second half and fall [...]

The Toronto Maple Leafs have not been a good road team in recent years. Then again, they haven’t been good all around, so to try and make a distinction between home and road probably isn’t the most accurate way to go about doing things. Still, there was reason for optimism: the Leafs were 6-5-0 on [...]
The New York Islanders have struggled this season to a record of 5-10-4 through the opening 19 games of the season. The team had five 20 goal scorers a year ago, while Michael Grabner (34) and Matt Moulson (31) both cracked the 30 goal plateau as well. Goals have been at a premium for the [...]
Even in the holiday season, there’s not a break for Brendan Shanahan, vice president of player safety for the National Hockey League. Shanahan handed down a three game suspension to New York Rangers forward Andre Deveaux for an incident that took place on Wednesday night in a game against the Florida Panthers. Thursday was [...]
The Toronto Maple Leafs had a mixed bag in the first two games of a three game stretch against Southeast Division opponents. Toronto walloped the Washington Capitals by a score of 7-1 Saturday night at the Air Canada Centre. That was followed up less than 24 hours later with a 3-2 defeat at the hands [...]
