Erik Karlsson Wasn't Ready For Andreas Athanasiou
It took just six seconds for young Red Wing upstart Andreas Athanasiou to get the winning goal in overtime against the Senators Wednesday night. And for that, he can thank the best defenseman in hockey....
Alex Ovechkin Is On Pace For Yet Another 50-Goal Season
Alexander Ovechkin took over the NHL lead in goals with a late pair, the first tying a sloppy, high-scoring game, and the second giving Washington the 5-4 OT win in Carolina. “It’s almost like whenever he decides to end it,” said his linemate Devante Smith-Pelly,” he can just go do it.”...
Nikita Kucherov And Steven Stamkos Have Beautiful Chemistry<em></em>
Tampa Bay Lightning scorers Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos have only been teammates since 2013, but at the end of the second period tonight against Montreal, the pair showed off the communication skills of a longtime married couple. As the Lightning pushed the puck down deep in the Canadiens’ zo...
Alex Ovechkin's Bullet One-Timers Will Never Get Old
The Washington Capitals entered the second period tonight against the Bruins down 2-0, and after a couple of scoreless games prior, they were staring down the longest goal drought in team history. But Lars Eller ended the struggle at 12:31, and less than two minutes later, Alex Ovechkin took a power...
The Penguins Do <i>A Christmas Story</i>
Every year, the Pittsburgh Penguins put out their own version of a holiday classic. This year it’s A Christmas Story, and I hadn’t realized this until now but the holiday season can’t officially begin until you’ve seen Kris Letang admiring himself in a bunny suit while Phil Kessel moans, “He looks l...
Wes McCauley Hams It Up Again
Referee Wes McCauley is universally respected across the NHL, which is why he’s allowed to display a bit of showmanship from time to time. (Just a quick Youtube search pulls up literally seconds of entertainment.) So when McCauley got to announce the results of a Michael Grabner goal review in last ...
The Golden Knights Are The Best Story In Hockey
If you thought a December game between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Vegas Golden Knights would end up pitting two of the NHL’s best teams, and would be one of the most exciting games of the season, you’re a fucking liar, get off my website, we don’t like liars here. If you’re as baffled by Vegas’...
Reports: Failure Will Move Back To Long Island After Things Didn't Work Out In Brooklyn
Five years after the announcement of a 25-year lease at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, the New York Islanders are already returning home—well, not quite home, but at least back out of New York City and onto the land mass* where they began (Correction: They never left the land mass). Reports say that a ...
Adam Henrique's New Jersey Homecoming Featured A Beautiful Goal And The "Pads Of Seduction"
When the Devils and Ducks swapped center Adam Henrique for defenseman Sami Vatanen on Nov. 30, it was a quintessential dealing-from-strength move for both teams. New Jersey had a plethora of forwards and was weak in the back, and injury-riddled Anaheim had blueliners but needed scoring. ...
Canucks' Brock Boeser Had To Crawl Off The Ice After Taking A Puck To The Foot
Canucks winger and 20-year-old rookie point leader Brock Boeser took a hard shot to his left foot in the second period of Vancouver’s game Sunday against the Flames. Even though Boeser clearly could not put any weight on his foot, play was not stopped, so he had to use his other leg to essentially r...
Ottawa Senators Radio Announcers Casually Discuss Grindr In Middle Of Game
I don’t have much to add to this. Tonight Ottawa shut out Montreal 3-0 in a centennial celebration game played outdoors in what looked to me like horrifically cold weather at Ottawa’s football stadium, but despite all the pomp and circumstance of the event Senators radio announcers Dean Brown and Go...
The Canucks Let The Predators Put On A Show
Sure, in any seven-goal game you’re going to see some fluke goals. Like P.K. Subban half-whiffing on a giveaway one-timer and the goalie never seeing the knuckling shot; or Subban scoring from center ice; or Filip Forsberg banging in a centering pass off a Canuck’s skate....
Hot Damn, P.K. Subban Scored From A Million Miles Away
P.K. Subban put the Predators up 3-0 in the second period of tonight’s game against the Canucks, getting his second goal of the evening by scoring from a point that just logically seems like it should be near impossible to manage. (From center ice, if you want to get all technical about it)....

Jonathan Marchessault Was Trapped In The Penalty Box
Here’s Vegas Golden Knights center Jonathan Marchessault trying desperately to exit the penalty box in the third period of last night’s game against Carolina, as boxmate David Perron tries to yank the door open and the officials seemingly argue about whether he should be freed or not. This seems lik...
Luc Robitaille's Wife, Stacia, Shares A Story Of Donald Trump Being An Aggressive Creep
There’s no shortage of stories about President Donald Trump being a gross, aggressive perv, and Stacia Robitaille shared another on Twitter last night:...
The Blues Dressed A Vending Machine Worker As Their Emergency Backup Goalie
Tyler Stewart had been working since 5 a.m. and had just finished his shift filling vending machines when he got the call: Blues backup goalie Carter Hutton had hurt his foot in the morning skate and AHL goalie Ville Husso wouldn’t be able to get there from San Antonio in time for puck drop. So Stew...
Looks Like Seattle's Going To Get An NHL Team
There are still many things that need to happen before Seattle ices its first major league hockey team since 1924, but after Thursday’s announcement by the NHL, it seems like it’s just a matter of time....
Matthew Tkachuk Won't Stop Being A Pain In The Ass
Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk (on the bench, wearing No. 19) delivered his second dirty play within a month in Wednesday’s loss against the Leafs. While this one was subtle enough that it went unnoticed at the time, it’s still going to get him into trouble. The NHL will have a disciplinary...
