Bad Calls Ump!!!

After watching the first four games of this years World Series, I have come to the conclusion that video replay should definitely be used to determine controversial calls.

Pittsburgh Penguins’ superstar, Sidney Crosby, was his typical modest self, when asked about not only scoring his 100th career goal but also notching his 200th assists — in a 4-1 win at home against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

This 21 year-old captain, who came into play with only four assists thus far, knew it was only [...]

Firing Savard…Does it Makes Sense?

To say that Denis Savard was shocked to be fired as coach of the Chicago Blackhawks, only four games into the regular season, is an enormous understatement.

Alfredsson Shines

The undisputed, number one story on Friday night, around the National Hockey League, is the miraculous return of Ottawa Senators’ captain, Daniel Alfredsson.
