After another sweep seemed inevitable following a disastrous Game 3 for Dallas, the Western Conference Final has slowly but surely become a whole lot more interesting. Stars 4, Golden Knights 2 (Golden Knights lead series 3-2) Ty Dellandrea’s two third-period goals within 1:27 of each other were the difference in this game, where the [...]
Welcome back to The Journey, where we track the development of prospects as they excel in junior, make the NHL, and push towards stardom. This week, we will examine two young players whose playoff performances have their fantasy stocks headed in different directions: one up, one down (or at least sideways). Postseason production should be [...]
Do we get the Stanley Cup Final matchup set tonight? Here’s my take - the Cup isn’t easy. Vegas will have to work harder, and Dallas won’t go easily. Then the Florida Panthers will have to survive a series-opening loss, too. They don’t just GIVE you the hardest trophy in sports, you have to earn [...]
With the Stanley Cup finals soon to be underway, and only a month until the NHL draft, the offseason is really starting to sneak up on us. Soon after the draft we have the time of year where GMs really get crazy, throwing a whole bunch of excess money at older players they don’t really [...]
Something that caught my attention the other day was that for a few moments, both the Eastern Conference and Western Conference series in each of the NHL and NBA playoffs were 3-0. I have to think that is something that has never happened before. On the NHL side, the Panthers were able to bring the [...]
The Eastern Conference Final had its moments, but for the sake of competition I hope the Stanley Cup Final requires more games to complete. Despite being swept, the Hurricanes deserved a better fate, since they lost all four games by one goal and two in overtime. In fact, the shot total over the four games [...]
We now interrupt our regularly scheduled playoff coverage (while we wait for the Final to be decided) to start on one of our traditional offseason series. This week, and for several upcoming weeks, we will be taking a look back over full season data to find out which players provided the most, and best, value [...]
The title for top cap goalie moves on again, with Alexandar Georgiev sitting on the throne at the moment (the only Bulgarian born NHL player). Georgiev is right in his prime now, on an excellent team, a reasonable cap hit, no big threat to his workload, and is a great goalie in his own right. [...]
A day after Florida was sent to the Cup Final thanks to a last-second power-play goal from Matthew Tkachuk, Dallas got an overtime power-play goal from Joe Pavelski to keep their own Cup hopes alive. With Vegas’s Brayden McNabb in the penalty box, Pavelski slapped home a feed from Miro Heiskanen that got past Golden [...]
