The Montreal Canadiens will not be pushed around

It’s an easy narrative. The Montreal Canadiens, the youngest team in NHL history to make the playoffs (for the second year in a row, beating their own record), are filled with smaller skilled players and might not be ready for playoff success. The playoffs are where time and space gets taken away. It’s less about skill and more about making your opponent miserable. Last year, you could argue that the series against the Washington Capitals turned on the Tom Wilson hit on Alexandre Car...

So, guess who it was?Guess again. And again. Once more, for good measure.Still guessing?“It was amazing to see Kent Anderson get...

Been There, Done That

For a moment, Denver goaltender Johnny Hicks — the remarkable, unassuming and undefeated freshman who has written his own story since taking over as the starter in January — looked down and out.Lying motionless on the ice after a high-velocity collision sent Michigan freshman Malcolm Spence barreling over him, Hicks stared up at the ceiling of a suddenly hushed T-Mobile Arena.
