NHL Rumors: Pete DeBoer Linked to Struggling Team

Morning Skate: Room

Welcome to the last Friday in March, folks! Time flies, doesn’t it? I guess it’s easier to say that when looking back than when looking forward, but we aren’t hear for a philosophical debate on time.

The Wild Lower West: Boredom Kicking In

Another week, another performance that left us all scratching our heads and wondering how we ever ended up flirting with the playoffs. The second half against Stevenage was embarrassing, not least because we had zero shots, but also because we played in a manner that never allowed us to create anything in the opposition’s half. […]

Lightning rally back but lose in overtime, 4-3, to Kraken

We’re keeping this one short. Since we were live in the building, haven’t had a chance to dive too deep into things, but here are few positive thoughts, and a few negative thoughts from the Tampa Bay Lightning’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Seattle Kraken. Positive thought: The Lightning went 1-for-1 on the power play. Not only that, it was the second unit that scored the goal. Corey Perry was doing Corey Perry things and roofed a nice shot from in close to tie the game up at three. It w...

Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart: Flyers 5, Blackhawks 1

In a sloppy, turnover-filled mess from start to finish, the Chicago Blackhawks fell 5-1 to the Philadelphia Flyers Thursday. The Flyers opened the scoring just 48 seconds into the game. Spencer Knight tried to play the puck to Artyom Levshunov, but Christian Dvorak hustled to intercept the pass and fed Alex Bump in front for an easy tap-in, giving the Flyers a 1-0 lead. Knight misplays it and the Flyers capitalize to open the scoring: pic.twitter.com/iiLIP7m9nm — BHF (@Blackhaw...
