Oh boy. After losing to the Jets, the Falcons head home from a road swing to face…the Seattle Seahawks, one of the best teams in the entire NFL, and a team operating near the peak of their powers. This is likely to be ugly; if it isn’t, we’ll all be surprised and at least a […]
Coming off a weekend sweep in Pennsylvania, the Laval Rocket returned home to the confines of Place Bell for one night before they would head back out on the road to end the week. Waiting for them was the Atlantic Division-leading Providence Bruins, who had compiled an impressive 16-3-0 record on the season. The Bruins and Rocket met just a few weeks ago, with Jacob Fowler posting a shutout win in one of the most complete showings by the Rocket all season. Pascal Vincent opted to keep his...

According to Sky Sports reporter Lyall Thomas, Tottenham Hotspur is joining the race for Bournemouth’s 25-year-old Antoine Semenyo. This comes after reporting over the past week that Liverpool FC had opened early talks with the player, and Manchester City is considering activating the rumoured £65 million release clause.

With an important two points on the line in this divisional matchup between two under-performing rivals, this was a complete team effort on the road from the Maple Leafs. The Leafs’ bottom six did all of the team’s scoring (until the empty-netter by John Tavares), Toronto won over 70% of the faceoffs, won more than […] The post Game Review: Bottom six provides the offense in Maple Leafs’ big road win over Florida appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
Before we get too far into this, we will admit we did not watch tonight’s game. Thanks to a combination of factors including, but not limited to, a rough day at the bill-paying job, wonky internet, and the fact that we have no couch, we’re not going to watch the game either. So here are some recaps of the 2-1 loss from folks that we assume did watch the game. Bo Horvat and old friend Anthony Duclair had the tallies for the Islanders while Dominic James scored for the Lightning. NHL.com ...
I don’t need to remind most of you that the Sacramento Kings swept the Houston Rockets last season. In the first meeting, the Kings made 15 consecutive shots over a period over six minutes ansd while the Rockets never gave up, the game was over after that. The second game was the sort of contest […]

A lot of good […] The post Craig Berube on a big win in Florida for the Maple Leafs: “Probably one of the fastest-paced games we’ve played all year” appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
The Road Trip is Complete!
The Boston Celtics returned home to TD Garden to face the second-placed New York Knickerbockers on Tuesday night. Both teams took turn throwing haymakers throughout the game, but it was the Celtics led by Jaylen Brown and Hugo Gonzalez who rallied the home team, as Boston won their 12th game of the year, 123-117. Derrick […]
While I am coming to terms with the debacle of an outing the Winnipeg Jets had last night in Buffalo…and in an attempt to distract me from thinking about how Wednesday’s game against the Montreal Canadiens will go…I figured I would dive into the True Northers issues with secondary scoring this season. For this review, I opted to stick with Winnipeg’s forward position. The reason for this becomes obvious when you consider that the top unit of Mark Scheifele , Kyle Connor , & Gabriel Vilard...
The Islanders got the much-needed go-ahead goals and timely saves that had eluded them on this homestand and were rewarded with a 2-1 victory that ended the Tampa Bay Lightning’s seven-game win streak. The the Lightning were without Victor Hedman — which has hardly slowed them the past 10 games — the Islanders’ post-Palmieri and […]
The Rangers pulled off a comeback and got a meaningful extra point as Vladislav Gavrikov became the unlikely hero in overtime.
It was the most obvious shutout in NHL history. You could see it coming a mile away. Four years after the Edmonton Oilers passed on drafting him in the first round, Jesper Wallstedt made them pay, stopping all 33 shots he faced in the Minnesota Wild’s 1-0 win Tuesday night. Wallstedt was nothing short of…

First period After an energetic start, it’s the Senators that make the biggest error by taking a penalty, allowing the Canadiens’ special teams to go to work. Linus Ullmark is caught with a shot to the neck from Zachary Bolduc and dazed in his crease. He makes once more stop, but is unable to stop Juraj Slafkovský on the follow-up as Cole Caufield finds him across the crease. Excellent pass from Cole Caufield to Juraj Slafkovsky, and it's 1-0 #Habs pic.twitter.com/eg0nxsnFzM...
Head down to the comments to talk about Tuesday’s game against the Golden Knights! Game Preview
Full marks to anyone who can identify the goaltender in question to the left. He played his last professional game in the ECHL during the 2023-24 season, but it appears he's trying to gain employment in that league again. If you're wondering, he's a former NHL netminder who played for three teams, but has just 40 games to his name despite those three stops. The 32 year-old was drafted 190th-overall in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, he won an AHL Calder Cup championship in 2017-18, and he's one of 2...
