The Colorado Avalanche, fresh off a Presidents Trophy-clinching performance on Thursday, play their final weekend game of the regular season tonight.

It’s hard to believe the playoffs are as close as they are. For as much as this regular season has flown by for the Edmonton Oilers, it’s been a long, arduous winter. And while today is moving day at The Masters, it’s moving day for the Oilers, who need a point against the Los Angeles…
The Wisconsin Badgers take on the Denver Pioneers this evening in Vegas for the Badgers’ first men’s hockey title game since Obama’s first term, and B5Q’s resident hockey guru, Taylor Valentine, sat down with me to preview this intriguing matchup, which should be a really fun one. Ahead of the game, we gave our keys to a Badgers […]
It’s happening again. The Philadelphia Flyers are relying on Claude Giroux to work some magic and give them a whole lot of a better chance to get into the playoffs. The only thing is that this time, Giroux isn’t actually playing for the Flyers. As the Flyers continue to push and push into the playoffs during these final few remaining games of the regular season, every single point matters — and that job only got harder after the disheartening 6-3 loss to Detroit earlier in the week. They ...
The Edmonton Oilers are in Los Angeles this afternoon for Game 80 on the schedule, and I don’t think I’m being dramatic when I say this is another massive game for our boys. With three games left and the Oilers sitting one point up on both Vegas and Anaheim in the Pacific Division, Edmonton has…
He isn't gonna play in any of the four remaining regular season games.
Not quite must win, but nearly.
The Blackhawks continue their season-ending homestand on Saturday afternoon at the United Center against the St. Louis Blues. Since the turn of the new year, the Blues have played better than their first-half disaster suggested, but not nearly well enough to make the turnaround complete and qualify for the playoffs. They tightened up defensively, got steadier goaltending, and generally looked more competent after the new year, including putting together mostly break-even shot metrics like...
Well, the National Hockey League’s 2025-26 regular season is nearing its conclusion…..and it has certainly been an interesting one for the Winnipeg Jets. Coming off a President’s Trophy win, the True Northers had high hopes entering the campaign….but injury issues reared their ugly head during the off-season & training camp, starting the Jets off on the wrong foot. Despite missing key players like Adam Lowry , Dylan Samberg , & Cole Perfetti , Winnipeg started off well by winning 9 of the...
This Minnesota Wild season has been defined by two superstars playing at the peak of their powers, and somehow, neither has been Kirill Kaprizov. Instead, the oxygen around this team has been consumed by Matt Boldy's breakout 40/40 season and Quinn Hughes' revelatory arrival. Heck, they've alre...
LOS ANGELES — Max Muncy’s first home run on Friday night tied Steve Garvey for sixth on the all-time Dodgers home run list, and third since the team moved to Los Angeles. But that was just the start of the story. Muncy hit two more home runs in the series opener against the Texas Rangers, […]
Kasperi Kapanen thinks it’s a no-brainer: Connor McDavid should be the Hart Trophy winner. Hard to argue after McDavid’s game on Wednesday, which almost single-handedly elevated the Edmonton Oilers against the San Jose Sharks. The captain scored a hat-trick and added two assists for the 5-2 victory, the 14th five-point game of his career. During…
After their 7-2 shellacking of Chicago on Thursday night, the Carolina Hurricanes (51-22-6) are now in Utah to face the Mammoth (42-30-6) for a match today. The Canes have won three in a row and they are 7-3-0 in their last 10 games. They are two points ahead of Buffalo for first place in the […]
Everyone loves a good race for playoff spots in hockey. It doesn't matter what level of hockey as long as there's a compelling race that has more teams than needed in that race. That very thing is happening right now in the ECHL's Central Division as six of the seven teams in the division are battling for four playoff spots. Two teams have already clinched spots thanks to their leads over the division, leaving two spots for which those remaining four teams will compete. What should be understo...
We politely request postseason hockey clap, clap, clap-clap-clap
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers fell to the Dodgers last night in a wild game that I fell asleep on the couch during.
