Hasso Plattner wants to start winning, why is the team set up otherwise?

The entire Sharks organization and fan base agree on one thing: it is time to start winning. The Sharks’ rebuild should be on the upswing, high draft picks are starting to crack the NHL roster, and everyone in the Sharks’ front office agrees that the time to win again is now. With budding young stars like Macklin Celebrini, Will Smith and Yaroslav Askarov only getting better, as well as an overhaul of 3 out of the top 4 defensemen, it  should  start to happen sooner rather than later.  Sh...

Latest Numbers Revealed on Adrian Kempe Extension Talks With Kings

"I have no idea how the Kings can't sign this guy." That's how insider Elliotte Friedman sums up the Los Angeles Kings ' dilemma with their best player and pending unrestricted free agent Adrian Kempe.  After scoring two straight overtime winners last week, it's becoming more and more difficult for the Kings to keep putting off an extension agreement.

Bills vs. Chiefs Week 9 opening odds

The Buffalo Bills just took out their frustrations on the Carolina Panthers, winning 40-9 in a game where running back James Cook looked wholly unstoppable. Buffalo’s win put to bed a two-game losing streak that stretched out past their Week 7 bye. No doubt, the Bills were eager to move on from that setback, and […]

Can the Wild Afford To Lose A Race For Peter DeBoer?

How much can you panic about a 3-5-2 start? While the Minnesota Wild are in seventh place in the Central Division, it wouldn't have taken much for a few games to break differently. If one of four shots in overtime goes in on Sunday night, for example, the Wild would have entered Monday at a mu...

Wisconsin vs. Oregon grades: Are there moral victories from the loss?

There has been an interesting phenomenon that has stretched all the way from articles, to social media, to the comments on my podcast: Some Wisconsin Badgers fans are back on the Fick Train seemingly because of a closer-than-expected 21-7 loss in the wind and rain against the No. 6 Oregon Ducks. While I was impressed with the […]

This hasn’t been the start the Edmonton Oilers wanted

From day one of Captain Skates in early September, the Oilers talked about their goal of getting off to a good start. It hasn’t happened. The team went 4-4-2 and sits tied for 10th in the Western Conference. It’s not an awful start, but it isn’t close to a good start either. Edmonton had one…

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Senators

Welcome to Monday evening, folks! The last one in October, too. November looms. Get your cranberry sauce in order. Anyways, the Bruins will both start and end a brief road trip tonight with a match-up against the Senators. I don’t know if it’s even a road trip if it’s just one game. Maybe a road […]

All our coverage of Bills at Panthers, Week 8

The Buffalo Bills took down the surging Carolina Panthers in Week 8, winning a lopsided battle 40-9, in which running back James Cook proved unstoppable only by a snap count.

Lightning place Mitchell Chaffee on waivers

It seems Tampa Bay Lightning general manager Julien BriseBois will not let a non-game day go by without making a move this season. His latest transaction involves yet another forward as the Lightning placed Mitchell Chaffee on waivers on Monday. The 27-year-old will be assigned to the Syracuse Crunch should he clear. Like many of the Lightning forwards Chaffee, who has appeared in seven of the team’s nine games, has yet to register a point. Chaffee was signed by the organization prior to ...

Has Jack Roslovic done enough to stick with the Oilers?

Things haven’t been the best for the Edmonton Oilers in the early stages of this season. The offence has been sputtering, the defence has been shaky, and the team is playing just well enough to stick around in games.

Flyers GM Briere explains why he sent Luchanko back to OHL

The Philadelphia Flyers sent prospect Jett Luchanko back to the OHL’s Guelph Storm after over three weeks of trying him out in the NHL for the second season in a row. With the end result being the exact same, as the 19-year-old heads into his final year of junior hockey, Flyers general manager Danny Briere had some questions to answer. Luchanko started with the Flyers last season largely because then head coach John Tortorella was infatuated with his speed and defensive work. That team ha...
