After three games, no team is up 3-0 in a series. Should we be surprised given the way that teams are evenly matched nowadays? That being said, there were some lopsided scores, particularly in the later games. Bruins 4, Hurricanes 2 (Hurricanes lead series 2-1) Replacing the struggling Linus Ullmark in net for Game 3, [...]
Well, that’s a wrap on the regular season. Playoffs have begun, and while there are certainly some story lines, we will be reviewing games at a series level, so expect some playoff content once some of the rounds have wrapped. For now, I want to take a look back over the full season and find [...]

The regular season was an incredibly wild ride this year, between the number of large-scale injuries that a lot of players faced, the first 82 game season since the COVID-19 pandemic made its appearance, and the super-star production that we got to witness from a wide range of players across the league.

It’s playoff time and I’m taking advantage of these four-game slates while we have them. After the first round, we’re looking at what will most likely be just two-game slates and eventually of course one-game showdowns. I was fortunate enough to start the playoffs on a high note with a $500 third place finish with [...]
The big news from Pittsburgh's dramatic overtime win from Game 1 against New York was the health of goalie Casey DeSmith. He left during the overtime, turning the net over to Louis Domingue, as DeSmith appeared to be injured. We got a little clarity - for what that's worth in the playoffs - on both [...]
Here’s the latest injury news from across the NHL! Detailed injury updates usually become scarce during the playoffs, presumably because teams don't want the opposition to target their injured players. As a result, the Injury Ward article will probably be put on hold from now until the offseason, when we'll review the injury landscape ahead of next [...]
Welcome back to Goldipucks and the Three Skaters, a play on words of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. Instead of there being three bowls of porridge though, I cover three skaters and declare one too hot (i.e., doing unsustainably better than he should), another too cold (i.e., doing unsustainably worse), and a third [...]

We have postseason hockey, and oh is it glorious! Goals galore, heavy hits, everything on the line, and a couple of suspension worthy plays mixed in for good measure. What we’re not used to seeing though is all of the penalties called. We’re seeing a big uptick from the number of calls in the regular [...]
