While we do some minor tweaks to the blog and podcast, we wanted to let everyone know that posting will be a bit intermittent over the next several days.  Rest assured the podcast will go on Sunday Night as scheduled but as one can only do so much himself, I am asking for a little […]

This one from June of 2007 explored whether the Awards needed a makeover.   What will have this year?  They have got one since.  Vegas is an improvement but something tells me the awards themselves (as far as voting) still need work.  Here we go……   Enough is enough Mr. Bettman!!! Because of work, I had […]

This is not a Stanley Cup Finals moment but a moment so unique that it had to be mentioned today.     June 18, 1987 In a unique transaction, the N.Y. Rangers traded their 1988 first round draft pick to the Quebec Nordiques in exchange for the Nordiques’ coach Michel Bergeron.

Its a TGIF edition of the Morning Video Fix, we take a look at a couple quick old time songs.  Oh why not.         Have fun on your Friday!!!

Lots of moves and lots of beer today….time for some videos!         Fun day and evening of moves……

Obviously this will be updated a bit after the 2pm press conference but thanks to the New Jersey Devils site of nhl.com for being so fast as always.  Here are some of those memories…..and like I said more later…..and yes these are in order.             You expected a Ranger clip […]

It is always fun to look back at the numbers from previous years’ voting.  Last year’s NHL Awards produced some obvious results and a few surprises to a point.  Those surprises were deeper in the results.  Here is a Your Slot Here from last June on that very thing. ——————————————————————————— On a hot and windy […]

  We are going to do this weekly until September as a way of what we have learned this week in hockey. — A special thanks to Buddy Oakes for the NHL Awards show lineup.  Read his morning blog right here. — Rumors from hacks always get way too much press…..oh that Brodeur for Semin […]

Another day and another day closer to the end of those great playoff moments of yesteryear.  Today, we have one from the year 1999.  Are you ready for it?  Here is the moment and hey maybe a video too.     June 17, 1999 Ken Hitchcock became the winningest coach in Dallas Stars playoff history, […]

Good morning everyone and here are a few videos to get the world started…..and no know pranks here……       Ode to the fun of hockey…who knows what will happen between now and the draft.

  Today’s question is real simple…..   We understand that rumors have to start somewhere but the question is should there be someone’s “head on a stick” when responsible journalism goes out the window (i.e. a Brodeur for Semin rumor on HB)?   A penny for everyone’s thoughts……have at it!!!!!

Time for your hockey moment of zen today and here it is……..     Oh my all these moments in the penalty box……

As everyone has heard by now, Dale Tallon has assured Tomas Vokoun that he will not be traded this season.  I am guessing that means another season of showcasing stats over wins for Vokoun but at least he does not have to worry about being in limbo.   So the question becomes now what?  It […]

A special Top 5 plus five today of NHL Awards that could be given out.  Keep in mind that these are not the actual NHL Awards just awards that could be given out.  Thanks and enjoy.     This is from the 2007-08 season but should be done every year.

    Well we are back again for another crazed edition of The Program.  It should be a fun and entertaining show as always.  One thing is for sure now that Touchdown Jesus (the one in Ohio) burned down….we were thinking some hockey statues of Jesus could work.  I am sure all this and more […]
