Fantasy Hockey 101 was for the beginner and we will still do occasional columns and Fantasy Hockey 201 took the same quick hitting approach but raised the stakes a bit.  Now it comes time for the unveiling of Fantasy Hockey 301.  We humbly thank our friends from Weekly Slapshot for all of their help […]

When looking into what we would put up today, it was not an easy decision.  There is a level of insanity that often follows rumors this time of year because it is so close to the Draft and Free Agency period.  A panic rises out of the most inane report it seems.  Well here is […]

This has already been a sad day in more ways than one but 32 years ago came the ultimate boom that many in hockey saw coming for a few years.  It was a moment that truly changed hockey forever.  Would we have 30 teams today?  I doubt it if the following did not happen…..   […]

It was just another easy day at the office so here are a couple videos thanks to our friends who are in Las Vegas covering the NHL Awards.  Thanks Buddy, Ryan, and company.         Ah the shiny hardware….there will be more tomorrow.

Today’s moment seemed so radical at the time and yet it was only from 12 years ago.  Then just a few years later the NHL went a step further.  We almost seems due for the next radical OT change perhaps?  Well let’s get to this one first.     June 21, 1999 The NHL announced […]

It is time to fire up the videos before we head to bed.  Well some of us are anyway.  At any rate, let’s get to this.          Have a great night!

It is hard to believe this event happened 19 years ago today and yet it did.  This is what happens when players get to choose where they go.  Now it is time for the video and the moment.  Here we go.     June 20, 1992 Quebec Nordiques traded the rights to Eric Lindros to […]

Well it is time to head to bed.  HP gets our one finger salute tonight.  In the meantime, there shall be a couple videos and this time we did not forget the cider.         Have a good night and see you Monday!

Father’s Day is the one day of the year (yes it should be everyday I know) that you really take time to reflect on all the things that your dad has done for you. All those drives to hockey practice or the time he picked you up after you fell off your bike. The little […]

Simply today is a day that will forever live in infamy for fans of the Buffalo Sabres.  This was the day twelve years ago that the following unthinkable event happened.     June 19, 1999 Brett Hull scored the winning goal at 14:51 of the third overtime and Ed Belfour made 53 saves as Dallas […]

In honor of the 2011 Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins, today we have a very simple Coachspeak.  Here is coach Claude Julien and we will just let him take it away.     To go from almost losing one’s job to a Stanley Cup. Now that is amazing. Have a great Saturday everyone.

Today we have a bit of a different moment for our hockey fans.  This moment happened two years ago and as much as many deadpan these sorts of things, it is nice to see the show in Las Vegas.  So since this moment is pretty easy to figure out, let us get to the moment […]

There shall be videos and then there will be a good night….         Have a great night everyone. Do not forget the Weekly Slapshot is on at Noon ET on Blog Talk Radio.
