On Monday night, I went to cover a Chicago Blackhawks game that felt like a significantly bigger moment than a divisional rivalry on a Monday night in January.
Jonathan Toews, the longest-tenured captain in the history of the franchise, was playing his first game as a visitor. When a legend comes “home,” there are ceremonies and celebrations. And this was no different. After the Jets’ morning skate, the Winnipeg media team set up a press conference… on the road. Toews spoke to the media f...

The Islanders needed to win in Vancouver — home of the last-place Canucks — and they did but it was not pretty nor reassuring as they squeaked by with a comeback 4-3 victory over a team that was winless in its last 10 coming in. Anthony Duclair continued his One Hot Road Trip with a […]
The Rangers took an early lead, but Anaheim’s resilience proved decisive as the Ducks pulled away late to beat the Rangers.
Spencer Knight delivered a 32-save shutout and the Chicago Blackhawks ended their three-game losing streak with a 2-0 win over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday night at the United Center.
After a scoreless first period, the Blackhawks finally broke through at 13:21 of the second. Ryan Donato flipped a long pass to a streaking Jason Dickinson, who settled the bouncing puck in the offensive zone and slipped a wrist shot between Connor Hellebuyck’s pads to make it 1-0.

The Tennessee Titans are hiring former New York Jets head coach and former San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh as their next head coach, per reports. He had two interviews with the Titans this week. Saleh is expected to call the defensive plays. Saleh was one of two finalists for the job alongside Matt […]
The San Jose Sharks have matched up exactly twice with the Florida Panthers this season and twice the team has skated away with wins. Tonight, the Sharks defeated the Panthers 4-1 in a penalty filled fest that included a combined for 38 penalty minutes, including the unicorn of them all, the rare goalie fight.
Things started out mundane enough, with some fairly good hockey back and forth, but when the Sharks took good control of the puck in the first period, the Panthers decided to up the...
UCL Time Today, it’s Monaco for UCL at home. We need to go for the win. At the moment, we are sitting at the 7th position, with the same amount of points (12) of Atleti , which is the 8th. Moreover, Arbeloa started with a embarrassing loss to Albacete. If he doesn’t win today, things […]
Recap of the game.
Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 6-3 loss to the Minnesota Wild, which dropped the Maple Leafs’ record to 24-17-8. On the team’s biggest issue in the game: We didn’t play well enough. That’s it. Mistakes. We made too many mistakes. Line change goal. Two PK goals against. We just weren’t detailed enough […]
The post Craig Berube on whether the Leafs’ intense schedule contributed to the blowout loss to Minnesota: “Possibly, but that’s why you have to be smarter” appeared fir...
Miami tries to turn the corner after suffering its first defeat since Thanksgiving. On Saturday, the Hurricanes fought valiantly but still lost to No. 22 Clemson by 10 points. The perimeter shooting wasn’t there, once again. Malik Reneau got in early foul trouble for the fourth time in five games and fouled out. A relentless […]
The first period happened. I swear it did. Somehow, 20 minutes of hockey were played around one of the most incredible tributes I’ve ever seen or been fortunate to attend. Both teams put 12 shots on net and had some power play time in the first period, but the hockey took a back seat to Jonathan Toews’ moment .
The Blackhawks were able to get on the board, but Connor Hellebuyck wasn’t giving them much. Hellebuyck made a ridiculous save against a Connor Bedard shot attempt on a Blackhawks ...

Just over two weeks from now, NHL rosters are going to be set as the league shuts down for the Olympic break. On February 4th rosters will be frozen until the 22nd as the hockey world focuses on the action in Italy. Considering the fact that the actual trade deadline comes just 12 days after rosters open back up, some GMs are getting the jump on things now. Two rather significant deals have come together over the last couple of days.
The first deal sent the most coveted defenseman on the ...

Pregame Pittsburgh gets Ryan Graves into the lineup and gives Jack St. Ivany a night off. Stuart Skinner gets the start in goal. First period It’s not the smoothest start for the Penguins, though you wouldn’t know if from the scoreboard. Skinner has to stop Eeli Tolvanen on a clean breakaway early. Pittsburgh gets the […]

T.J. Callan played football for the University of Miami until he felt he would never be accepted as a gay man by coaches, players or staff.
