The Philadelphia Flyers showed they were still very much alive last night when they beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-2 to stave off elimination. The Penguins now lead the series 3-1. The Flyers scored three goals in the first period to jump out to a 3-0 lead heading into the first intermission. Things [...]

Here are the video highlights.
P.S. I love Canada. ESPN should show highlights like these. ESPN should also buy the rights to broadcast NHL games.
Can anyone stop them?

The question is: am I referring to the Red Wings or the Penguins?
Red Wings vs. Penguins looks like a foregone conclusion for the Stanley Cup Finals, which should make hockey fans, TV executives, and the NHL all happy.
Both teams are playing on a different level from everyone else. The Penguins have an incredible 11-1 record [...]
NHL fines Ribeiro and Osgood. No suspensions.

The NHL handed down fines to each player, but the amount of each penalty was not disclosed.
I’m a little bit surprised that there were no suspensions. A butt-end to the face is very dangerous. Osgood is lucky he isn’t being suspended.
And what Ribeiro did to Osgood wasn’t all too different from what Chris [...]
Stars’ Ribeiro slashes Chris Osgood across the chest after Red Wings victory in game 2

After a fairly boring 3rd period, things got pretty interesting after the buzzer sounded to end game 2 of the Western Conference finals.
Chris Osgood used the butt-end of his stick to poke Dallas’ Mike Ribeiro as he skated through the crease at the end of the game. Ribeiro then turned around and, from behind [...]

Starting next season, the NHL will revert back to the system used before the lockout. Each team will play the other four teams in their division six times (3 home games and 3 road games) and play the other 10 teams in their conference four times (2 home games and 2 road games). The remaining [...]
Go… Stars?

Well now that my beloved Rangers are hitting the links, I have to decide which team I want to see win the Stanley Cup.
Eric, you’re going to root for an Eastern Conference team, right?
Nope! I was pulling for the Flyers to beat the Canadiens because, let’s face it, I don’t like the Canadiens or [...]
Morrow scores; Stars win

The Stars dominated the 4th OT but couldn’t get a puck past Nabokov until Brenden Morrow punched in the game-winner on the power play after 129:03 of game time.
Now I’m going to sleep.
Sharks and Stars going into 4th overtime tied 1-1

I might be the only person on the East coast watching this game right now, but it’s been pretty awesome. If you haven’t been paying attention in this series, the Sharks were down 3-0 but have fought back to make it 3-2. This is game 6 in Dallas, and obviously if the Stars score they [...]
