Anti-Antti

I…just…can’t…do…it…anymore. Maybe no one has been talking about it because it’s too obvious.  Maybe no one is talking about it because they’ve already exhausted themselves.  Maybe the whole blogosphere is just sick and tired of beating the same old, tired, annoying, and already-way-beyond-dead horse.  It doesn’t really matter, because I don’...

Postgame Avs-Capitals: D.C. Delight

Chuck Myers/MCT WASHINGTON – Now that was a hockey game. Goals, great saves, big hits, bad blood, fights – it was all there tonight here in DC. Avs win it, thanks to timely goals and a bend-but-don’t-break defense, backboned with Craig Anderson. It’s real late and I need to get some ambien induced Zs, but overall I’d sum up the game as one where the...

Cheli's probably thanking his old bones he didn't after seeing this. Six seconds into the game Sergei Belokon (Vityaz) went after Avangard's Marek Svatos, Josh Gratton (Vityaz) went after Alexei Bondarev...

Game 1: Flyers Outlast Devils

It wasn’t pretty, nor attractive. The Flyers managed to get just 14 shots from only 9 players in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinal Series vs. the New Jersey Devils, but 2 of those 14 shots went in the net, and that was enough to win the game. The Flyers relied on their savvy smarts and patience, and managed to out-bore the Devils 2-1. On the strength of two second...

The Skoula effect?

I never understood why the Pens did not play Martin Skoula regularly when he was here. The ineptness of Kris Letang, Alex Goligoski and Jordan Leopold is going to keep this team from making a long run in the playoffs.
