After being bounced in Game 7 in the second round to the Florida Panthers, the Maple…
Despite the logic of having a third BC-based university hockey program under Canada West's watch, the dream of seeing the Simon Fraser University Red Leafs make the jump to U SPORTS hockey is now dead-on-arrival with the news that was reported yesterday. I know that SFU is experiencing a "tightening of the purse strings" like most of the big universities across Canada, but the men's at-large hockey program that played against both U SPORTS and NCAA competitors whenever possible is officially b...

But the absolute dominance that McDavid has displayed in just three games is arguably the best three-game stretch for any NHL player in the Olympics. Usually, offence cannibalizes on a stacked team like this….
Because I'm not allowed to live-blog an Olympic hockey game due to broadcast rights, I decided that I needed to post something else today that stuck with the Olympic hockey theme, but wouldn't break any rules. After all, I don't want the IOC shutting down HBIC over me publishing my thoughts as I watch Canada and Switzerland battle today. That being said, I decided to dive into the Netflix-produced Miracle: The Boys of '80 , directed by Max Gershberg and Jacob Rogal. This documentary gathers a ...

After a tumultuous 2024-25 season with the Edmonton Oilers, which saw him in and out of the lineup, Jeff Skinner signed last summer with the San Jose Sharks, hoping for a greater opportunity. That appeared to be the case early on in the season, but in mid-January, Skinner found himself a healthy scratch, missing each of…
Welcome to the NHL weekend rankings, in which we don’t have an NHL to talk about. You may have noticed that the league is on hold while some tournament is played over in Italy. It feels like it’s kind of a big deal. People seem to be enjoying it. OK, so let’s go with the flow. It’s like the old cliché goes: When in Rome, or at least in the same country as Rome, do as every other hockey writer in the world is doing and serve up some Olympic hockey takes. This week, we’ll take the rough format o...

It's the final week of the season and there are six teams vying for five playoff spots. Two teams can play spoiler this week by rallying for wins, so all eight teams have a reason to shoot for the win column. The only team who can relax are the UBC Thunderbirds who know they'll have next week off as the playoffs start and will be sleeping in their own beds for the entirety of the Canada West playoffs after clinching home-ice advantage. Beyond that, though, every other playoff spot is up for gr...
