On Wednesday, the Tampa Bay Lightning held a practice. At this time of year, that’s a pretty rare thing. With the amount of games they’ve played recently, rest is paramount to a team’s success. However, there is always a need to refine aspects of their game, something that can only be done in a controlled environment like practice. Not everyone participated, however.
The lines we saw at today’s #GoBolts practice:
Guentzel-Point-Kucherov
Goncalves-Cirelli-Bjorkstrand
Girgensons-Gourde-H...

Well, then you are the Arizona Cardinals, New York Jets, Las Vegas Raiders, or the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland has employed so […]
Tonight’s battle against conference rivals, the Anaheim Ducks, is a test of growth, identity, and resilience for the San Jose Sharks.
The Ducks arrive with depth across their lines, elite scorers, and structured play. San Jose carries a brand of hockey that thrives in chaos, opportunistic, and unafraid to lean on its young stars when the game opens up.
But as the playoffs approach, the Sharks are still fighting for their chance at a wildcard spot.

Jiricek was acquired by the Flyers ahead of this season's trade deadline, in a deal that saw Bobby Brink head to the Minnesota Wild.

With eight games in 13 days, they have their work cut out for them to get over the hump, leaping over a few other teams while hoping some scoreboard watching goes their way.
