Mike Keenan is Metallurg Magnitogorsk's new coach
Iron Mike Keenan has coached for eight NHL teams since he began coaching in the 1984/1985 season. These coaching tenures usually end with someone in tears - a goalie, nine times out of ten. Keenan does not have a reputation as being someone easy to work for, and he's been given power that's incompatible to his personality. St. Louis Blues fans, like myself, despise Keenan...

San Jose Sharks Sweep the Vancouver Canucks!
Somewhere Jeremy Roenick is pinching himself to see if this is all a dream. Patrick Marleau, the player Roenick has so often attacked as being “soft,” sent the Sharks to the second round of the NHL Playoffs Tuesday night with a goal in overtime to seal the sweep of the Vancouver Canucks.
Joe Thornton took a power-play shot that managed to sneak past Vancouver goalie Cory Schneider...
Sidney Crosby draws questionable penalty in Overtime
The Pittsburgh Penguins have had quite the struggle with the New York Islanders the last two games. In fact, it took a very questionable holding penalty on defenseman Brian Strait in order for the Penguins to get an early overtime power play and win the game. Many announcers, including Jeremy Roenick and the controversial Mike Milbury, agree that there should not have been a penalty...
Apparently, NBC Hates The Penguins
(Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
Here in Philadelphia, we absolutely hate the Pittsburgh Penguins and their star Sidney Crosby. We do not try and hide it, we chant "Crosby Sucks" all game. We know he does not suck, but we hate him. Flyers fans and we assume hockey fans alike, hate watching the Pittsburgh Penguins play on NBC.
Watching the love fest that Pierre McGuire...
Roenick and Milbury are still doing it wrong
Michael Jordan had the ball. The game was on the line. He drives to the free throw line, step back on Byron Russell. Iconic moment in NBA history. Even if you don't like the NBA you remember that play.
Now imagine, directly after that, some marginal NBA player and a horrible former GM got on National TV and said, "Jordan pushed off, that is embarassing. That...
Did Mike Milbury and Jeremy Roenick call out Sidney Crosby for taking a dive?
I might have to admit, that I agree with Mike Milbury and Jeremy Roenick on this one here. I thought it was a bad call. I also thought that Sidney Crosby went down really easy. The word embellishment was on the tip of my tongue as well, after I saw the play live.
If I am not mistaken, they're kind of accusing Sidney Crosby of taking a bit of a dive there... Is that what others...
Bruins-Maple Leafs Preview

So all...
2013 Stanley Cup Playoffs: Minnesota Wild vs. Chicago Blackhawks series preview

They were the North Stars and since they just barely made it they were 'lucky' enough to draw the top seeded team in the Campbell Conference in arch rival Chicago Blackhawks. The Blackhawks were anchored by one of the best forwards in the NHL in Jeremy Roenick, as well as Steve Larmer, Dirk...
Success puts playoffs within reach for Stars
The life-cycle of champion teams in sports is often limited to a very short number of years strung together where everything happened in concert to lead to greatness.I say this only because as everyone looks at Chicago as the gold standard in the Western Conference, it was the spring of 2006 when I was at the United Center one spring day with roughly 5,000 die-hard Blackhawks'...

Cam Neely, Jeremy Roenick Recalled Fondly by NHL Players Remembering NHL 94 (Video)
If you grew up in the 90s and/or played video games in the 90s, there’s a good chance the unmistakable sound of a slap shot and a whining goal siren are music to your ears.
That familiar chorus, of course, belonged to NHL 94, one of the most influential hockey (or sports) video games in the history of gaming. The good people at EA Sports revolutionized hockey video games with that...

Does Mallrats or Swingers have the better NHL video game movie scene
Today we’ve been talking about sports movie quotes on Twitter and Facebook and I wanted to keep it going. One of the nominees for our Retro Hall of Fame is NHL 94. This video game (or a later version of it) is played in two of pop culture’s greatest movies ever: Swingers and Mallrats. The question I’d pose is which movie’s NHL hockey video game scene is better?
Swingers:...

Jeremy Roenick wants to fight a Twitter follower in real life for charity
We've all had someone on Twitter find a way to piss us off. I've had people try to talk down to me "because I'm a girl," and I've had people try to convince me that one World Series is better than eleven. Those people usually just get blocked because a) they're annoying and b) I have no idea who they are in real life. Irritate me, tell me my town didn...
