San Jose Sharks

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 [...]

If the Atlanta Thrashers fail to re-sign forward Ilya Kovalchuk, the Boston Bruins might get in on the action and sign the star away from Atlanta. Kovalchuk is one of the games premier players.  If Atlanta loses him they will be back to square one.  Thrasher fans deserve better.
Former Colorado Avalanche superstar Peter Forsberg wants [...]

Last season the NHL Western Conference’s Anaheim Ducks struggled to make the playoffs as a team with a near-even goal differential and 91 points, but was still able to upset the San Jose Sharks in the first round.  They then exited the playoffs after an exciting 7 game series versus the Detroit Red Wings.  The [...]

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 [...]

Now that the summer is slowly coming to an end NHL teams are making their last round of moves before training camp starts so that they’ll all be ready to go at full strength for their camps.  The rumor mill is starting to spin again with potential player movement ready to go.  As of the [...]

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 [...]

Yesterday saw the Montreal Canadiens come away with two very solid signings.  Montreal signed forward Travis Moen to a three-year $4.5 million contract and veteran defenceman Paul Mara to a one-year deal.  They added some size to the back end and some toughness, Moen, who will probably play on the third line.  I think he would be [...]
