On a day where we go to the polls…we go searching for a moment. This one is a milestone and a pretty impressive one at that. Time to take a look at what happened just 22 years ago today. You tell em Marcel!!!! November 03, 1987 Marcel Dionne became just the second player in NHL […]

There were to scary incidents this weekend. The Ben Fanelli incident has made every hockey website known to man. I don’t want to rehash if it a clean hit or a dirty hit rather I want to talk about Michael Liambas. He laid the hit and I feel his past putting a negative light on […]

As always thanks Shawn and I think Rick will get a chuckle out of one of these guys on here…….

This week we are just doing a short little bit on why it is just important to play out the week. Sometimes we get discouraged when our team is just sputtering around. Then to compound it, the injuries start piling up. Instead of giving up, why not try to make a fight of it. Why? […]

A nice weekend left us at 101-64 as we head into Monday. Tonight there are three pretty tough games to predict but we will try our best as we venture forth into the dreaded Monday zone. Here goes something. Philadelphia New York Islanders Phoenix Going home never felt so good on the night like tonight […]

Let’s have some fun with this one from two years ago about the Flyers. Just some perspective in all honesty. I’ve been hearing this current Flyers roster being called the Broad Street Bullies a lot lately, and quite frankly to me, it’s as confusing as listening to Niklas Backstrom in a shootout attempt against Niklas […]

We are back after a few days off. Well really they were not days off as packing people to get ready to go on vacation is more exhausting than being off from doing what you love. At any rate, here is today’s moment and video. Going through the years….heh. November 02, 1980 Philadelphia Flyers recorded […]

I wanted to first off apologize to all the readers out there. The last few days have been a bit hectic to say the least. So give us a few hours to get things a bit back under the control and we should be back to normal very soon. Thanks again for your patience and […]

One of the more unique dynamics of hockey is the goalie mask. It’s something that separates hockey from the other sports. It has evolved over the years, and now we’re at a point where the masters of the crease have anywhere from team logos to scary creatures painted on their mask (or nothing at all […]

Last year the Edmonton Oilers looked like a disinterested team. It was pretty clear that the head coach Craig MacTavish had lost the ear of his soldiers and the team went through the motion game after game ultimately missing the playoffs. As we all know, the end of Mactavish as the head coach followed after […]

5-2 last night pushes us to a record of 88-57. Hell we got lucky and we pick the Bruins so the Devils would win….go figure! Tonight we will not use such crazy radical methods. But hopefully you keep winning at our expense. Here are our picks and hey…thank our good buddy Ryan sometime. He helps […]

Today we have a little fun with the column to a point. Mike Mouat of the Detroit Red Wings Examiner and I have gone back and forth this season trying to figure out if the Red Wings need to score like the 1985 Oilers to win games. Well I am going to attempt and try […]

Today we go to the WHA of all places for our moment. We want to thank the fine folks at the Stingers History website for this. Now we at least present the moment but sadly no video on this one.
