First off, the Washington Capitals wore down the San Jose Sharks.  Then the Capitals superstar Alex Ovechkin finished them off.  Ovie netted two goals in a 28 second span early in the 3rd period to put the Caps in control as they cruised to the 4-1 victory.  Ovechkin’s two scores gave him an NHL-high seven [...]

Another year, another playoff disappointment for the San Jose Sharks.  Even with a franchise record 117-point season and all the talent in the world the Sharks, the best team in the entire National Hockey League fell flat on its face during the postseason, losing to the Anaheim Ducks in the first round.  But things are [...]

From everything I can gather young star forward Phil Kessel is done negotiating with the Boston Bruins.  So here are the three scenarios left for Kessel: Either he’ll be traded, or he’ll be signed to an offer sheet by another team and the Bruins will or won’t match it, or  he’ll play for the qualifying [...]

A new rumor is flying around the internet about Phil Kessel possibly going to the St.Louis Blues.  The Blues could definitely use the offensive help that the 21 year old could bring to the team.  Kessel is a restricted free agent who the Boston Bruins can not afford.  They will continue to try to find [...]

Detroit Forward Jiri Hudler might be returning to the Red Wings, but the Wings don’t have enough cap room for him. So they may be forced to trade Tomas Holmstrom and his $2.25 million salary. The IIHF denied Hudler his transfer card, which means he can’t play in the KHL as he original planned.  His [...]

Hockeylicious continues its off season analysis by focusing on the Western conferences Edmonton Oilers.  The Oilers finished yet another season just out of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. Their biggest loss, goaltender Dwayne Roloson, has been replaced by Nikolai Khabibulin, but so far the Oilers’ most remarkable move in the offseason has [...]

Here are some of the recent on goings of the NHL’s offseason.  The Philadelphia Flyers signed defenseman Ole-Kristian Tollefsen to a one-year contract on Thursday.  Tollefsen appeared in only 19 games in 2008-09 with the Columbus Blue Jackets and recorded one assist and 37 penalty minutes.
Rumor has it that the top offer Alex Tanguay has received [...]

Believe it or not the Ottawa Senators are an extremely talented and competitive team in the NHL’s eastern conference.  The Senators have been one of the top teams in the NHL in the last decade and the reason why they missed out on this years playoffs was for one reason, team morale.  Ottawa is mired [...]

Last season the Toronto Maple Leafs finished in the bottom third of the NHL but believe it or not they are just one goaltender away from contention.  Yes they need a few other parts but all in all they have a solid team.  They just stole 6′5″ 240 pound defenseman Mike Komisarek from their arch [...]

Yesterday was one of the most exciting days in the NHL, even though the excitement came in the off-season and off the ice.  Free agency began at 12:01 am and teams wasted little time in scooping up the talent.  By the time the day was over only a handful of top tier players remained.  Names [...]
