Blackhawks Strong-Arm Central – Anatomy of a Late Season Run The Blackhawks got absolutely shellacked in Sunrise this weekend. Their 7-0 loss to the Panthers Saturday night was their worst since a 9-2 beating at the hands of Edmonton in November of 2011, and ended a week also featuring uninspired efforts against lowly Colorado [...]
Ramblings: Is Crosby the Iron Man of his young line? Sheary leaves game (Mar.27) *** Well, that was short-lived. And I fear this may be what stops this new line from becoming legendary for two or three years. An injury. Yes, I just left those two lines there from last Wednesday’s Ramblings. Because I’m just [...]
The latest injury news on Malkin, Okposo, Wennberg, Spezza and many more The Big Guns (>75% owned in Yahoo Leagues) John Gibson – The Ducks’ goaltender has been stretching and skating separately from the team. Since he still hasn’t been part of a team practice, I wouldn’t expect him to return any time soon. [...]

Considers depth chart, organizational value, performance, and NHL wait time (the main reason why top skilled goalies can be ranked low, while weaker [...]
Ramblings: Crosby (Guentzel, Sheary) (Mar.20) *** Fourteen teams played on Sunday and eight of them scored at least four goals. I don’t have the data on offense since goaltenders were forced to wear the tighter pants, and perhaps I’m just looking for a bright light in a sea of darkness…but maybe it’s working? Sidney Crosby [...]
