Shots...

Phil Esposito, in his high-scoring career, always said that the more you shot, the more you scored.?I don't disagree with Phil, but I also think that it's the quality of shots as opposed to the quantity. I do agree that if you get the puck to the net, your chances of scoring multiply greatly (and that is the most obvious statement I've ever said), but crappy shots from...

A Call To Remember

We like any excuse to post a John Walton audio file, but in the Hershey Bears' last game, a 3-2 victory Sunday against Worcester, Alexandre Giroux made American League history by scoring a goal in his 15th consecutive game.

Giving "NHL GameCenter Live" A Workout

Washington Capitals fans in the D.C. metro area are pretty lucky when it comes to seeing the Caps -- 41 regular season games at the Phone Booth, and almost every other game available on Comcast or Versus.

Langway’s ‘Stache Is the ‘85 All-Star MVP

Since boarding the Caps bandwagon on January 7, the hottest team in the NHL has gone just 3-4, including last night’s loss at Ottawa. This is exactly the type of fail our jinx tag is supposed to protect us from, but the power of my jinx must be so strong that I’ve jinxed the jinx. To [...]
