Broadcaster Mike Milbury Calls P.K. Subban A "Clown" Who Deserves "Rap On The Head" For Dancing In Warmups
Before Game 2 of the Predators’ second-round series against the Blues last night, P.K. Subban was seen on camera dancing, trying out some tricks, and generally being a happily relaxed player during warmups....
Erik Karlsson Won Game 1 On A Freakishly Lucky Goal
The longer the Ottawa Senators stay alive in the playoffs, the more recognition Erik Karlsson is going to get for being one of the greatest hockey players on the planet (and certainly the most underrated). Though Karlsson’s game-winning goal is not exactly evidence of it....
Penguins Beat Capitals After Late Series Of Insane Saves By Marc-Andre Fleury
The Penguins hung on to beat the Capitals, 3-2, after some ridiculous work by Marc-Andre Fleury to keep Washington from scoring on a late scramble in front of the net. With three minutes remaining in the third period, Fleury somehow managed to keep things together even after losing his stick:...
Sidney Crosby Scores Twice In One Minute To Put Penguins Ahead
Sidney Crosby opened up the second period in dramatic fashion—scoring twice in just 54 seconds to allow the Penguins to take a 2-0 lead in tonight’s Game 1 against the Capitals....
How's That Adam Larsson Trade Looking Now?
The jury’s still out on the Adam Larsson-for-Taylor Hall trade, and if it’s not universally popular in Edmonton, that’s because Hall’s contributions show up on the scoresheet where Larsson’s don’t. But the Oilers dealt from a position of strength—a glut of scoring forwards—to address a specific need...
P.K. Subban Deserves Your Love
Maybe you don’t know a ton about the Nashville Predators. That’s OK! It’s understandable. They don’t have a ton of history, and they certainly don’t get picked for a lot of national broadcasts. They underachieved in the regular season. Their top line—maybe the best of the eight teams remaining in th...

Predators Rookie Kevin Fiala Stretchered Off Ice And Hospitalized After Scary Injury [Update]
During the first period of Game 1 of the Predators’ playoff series with the Blues, Nashville winger Kevin Fiala got squished into the boards by Blues defenseman Robert Bortuzzo. The crash was very ugly and Fiala folded up like an accordion after he hit the wall. Getting scrunched down to the ice by ...
Nikita Kucherov Grouses About Lightning Teammates Who "Stopped Working"
The Tampa Bay Lightning followed up last year’s trip to the conference finals with a disappointing 2016-17 season in which they just missed a playoff spot with 94 points. Losing Steven Stamkos to injury in November didn’t help. Sovietsky Sport published an interview with Nikita Kucherov today, and t...
Clarke MacArthur Isn't Here For The Feel-Good Story
A few months ago, Clarke MacArthur was thinking about retiring. He didn’t know if he’d ever be cleared to play hockey again, and even if he were, he didn’t know if it would be safe. Now he’s a huge reason the Senators are moving on....
Eric Staal Leaves Game After Scary Head-First Crash Into The Boards
The Wild got a scare midway through the second period today against the Blues when Eric Staal crashed headfirst into the boards. After laying crumpled on the ice for a few minutes while play was stopped, Staal was eventually able to climb to his feet and skate off on his own. ...
The Predators' Mascot Did A 👀 Tweet
Okay so the Nashville Predators upset the Chicago Blackhawks in the first round of the NHL playoffs, and Gnash, the Preds’ mascot that has an official Twitter account for some reason, is angry that nobody at ESPN predicted the upset:...
So Much For The Blue Jackets
This is one of those weird situations where it’s hard to avoid talking about a single call like it swung things, even though the entire series—a five-game Penguins win—was pretty one-sided. But the Blue Jackets are out, after the best regular season in franchise history, and there’s plenty of time t...
Yes, The Predators Are Good Enough To Do <i>That</i> To The Blackhawks
This was the postseason without “Chelsea Dagger.” The Blackhawks’ goal song never once played in these playoffs, simply because Chicago didn’t score a single goal at home. They managed just three goals in the entire series, and with last night’s 4-1 loss in Nashville, the West’s top seed were on the...
Duncan Keith Sends Viktor Arvidsson's Helmet Flying <em></em>With Brutal Check
With a 4-1 loss to the Predators tonight, the Blackhawks were swept out of the playoffs. But not before Duncan Keith could deliver an intense check that sent Viktor Arvidsson’s helmet flying before he even hit the ice:...
Jack Eichel Got Grumpy And Then The Sabres Cleaned House
This morning, the Buffalo Sabres announced that head coach Dan Bylsma and general manager Tim Murray have been fired. Such a culling at the conclusion of a 33-37-12 season, a regression in the middle of what was supposed to be a rebuild, isn’t the most shocking thing to happen, but the timing of the...
The Bruins Can't Catch A Break
Don’t look now, but the Senators have won three straight since we all made fun of that tweet. Smart-asses that we are, maybe we shouldn’t have decided to forget, for the sake of trolling, that possession stats tend to show up on the scoreboard eventually....
Capitals Winger Tom Wilson Made The Save Of The Night
The Washington Capitals’ Tom Wilson isn’t a goalie, but he came up with the best save of the night in tonight’s crucial Game 4 against the Toronto Maple Leafs. About halfway through the first period, Wilson made a diving save to whisk the puck, which had slipped through Braden Holtby’s pads, off the...
