Daniel Sedin Scores Overtime Winner Assisted By Henrik In Their Last Vancouver Game
If the Sedins’ careers had to end with a meaningless game in April, it’s absolutely perfect that they ended like this. Daniel and Henrik Sedin led the Canucks to victory in their final game on Vancouver ice before retirement, with Daniel scoring both a second-period goal and the overtime winner off ...
Notre Dame Scores Last-Second Goal To Break Michigan Hearts In The Frozen Four
An incredible national semifinal between Notre Dame and Michigan looked to be heading to overtime, then ended with no warning whatsoever thanks to the Irish’s Jake Evans, who scored an Arike Ogunbowale-esque dagger with 5.2 seconds remaining to win the game 4-3....
Sedin Twins Announce Their Retirement Together
After an 18-year NHL career spent entirely together (not to mention several seasons with MODO in Sweden), Henrik and Daniel Sedin have jointly announced their plans to retire at the end of the season in a letter published on the Canucks website. With the Canucks out of the playoff picture, that mean...
Give Scott Foster The Vezina
The Blues have dressed an emergency goaltender this season, and the Hurricanes actually put their equipment manager Jorge Alves in a game last year—for precisely eight seconds with no shots on goal. Thursday night, Scott Foster not only became the first emergency goalie to make a save in an NHL game...
This Pretty Goal Will Be The Only Thing I Choose To Remember From The Red Wings' Season
On MLB opening day and with plenty of actual good NHL teams in action, there was no way in hell I was going to put myself through Red Wings-Sabres last night. So I’d be lying if I said I’ve entirely stuck by my hometown team, but still, this highlight is like the best thing I’ve seen from Detroit al...
The Michigan Goal Is So Hot Right Now
In Thursday’s 5-3 Nashville win over San Jose, Predators winger Filip Forsberg attempted—and almost nailed—a thing of beauty. While skating around the back of the net, Forsberg scooped the puck onto the blade of his stick and threw it on net while he skated past. He hit the post....

Tuukka Rask Throws Hands At Crease Intruder, Almost Sparks Goalie Brawl

The Golden Knights Made Me Look Stupid
In every life, a little shit must be eaten. Especially by sportswriters who think they know anything. Back in June, after the expansion draft, I encouraged everyone to look at the Vegas Golden Knights’ projected roster and wrote,...
Junior Hockey Team Stunts On Blowout Victims With Sick Goals
The OHL’s Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds took a 2-0 series lead on Saginaw yesterday, earning a win in both a stylish and maybe kind of over-the-top fashion. With a 6-0 lead in the third period, the Greyhounds were ... let’s say, unrestrained as they played out the final minutes....
Thank God, Auston Matthews Is Back
Young Maple Leafs sensation Auston Matthews returned to the team Thursday night after a month-long layoff due to a shoulder injury, suiting up for a 5-2 win at league-leading Nashville. It didn’t take long for Matthews to satisfy our cravings for some pretty, self-assured stickhandling....

Why score a goal yourself when you can just find a way to get the puck into the goalie’s gear and have him carry it in for you?...
What The Hell, Sid
The LeBron James of hockey did yet another gorgeous thing that I don’t think I’ve ever seen before tonight against Montreal, one that required perfect awareness, hand-eye coordination, and stick control. It ruled....
Olympic Stud Ryan Donato Is Staying Hot In The NHL
21-year-old center Ryan Donato was one of the few bright spots in an otherwise mediocre U.S. Olympic men’s hockey team last month, scoring five goals in his five games in Korea. And now that he’s earned an NHL call-up with Boston, he’s keeping the hot streak alive. In approximately 1.17 NHL games, D...

Hockey Skate Mangles Ear
Another hockey guy upended, another close call for a fellow player’s major arteries. Kings defenseman Derek Forbort had his ear butterflied in Monday’s 4-3 win after Wild forward Zach Parise’s skate caught him on the side of the head. Forbort’s lucky it wasn’t his neck....
Sebastian Aho Gets A Penalty For Hooking Sebastian Aho
Sebastian Aho plays for the New York Islanders. Sebastian Aho plays for the Carolina Hurricanes. Yes, there are two players named Sebastian Aho in the NHL, in what appears to be hockey’s useless but mildly interesting equivalent of the NFL’s “Antonio Gates played basketball in college.”...

Declan Farmer’s goal with 38 seconds left in regulation forced overtime and his goal three minutes into sudden death delivered the United States its third Paralympic Games sled hockey gold medal in a row, downing Canada in Pyeongchang 2-1....
The Dallas Stars Are Spiraling Hard
In an 82-game season, one night shouldn’t do much to define a team’s year. But if a single dropped point has the power to crush a franchise, it showed in the Dallas Stars’ Wednesday night loss to the Maple Leafs....
