Which Was Worse? The Sharks Overtime Goal or Brett Hull’s 1999 Cup Winning goal?
By now, it’s been the goal seen, heard, and debated around the world. You already know which one we’re talking about: the San Jose Sharks overtime winner against the Blues that came off a blatant hand pass. Truth be told, I wasn’t watching the game, I was at a bar, but I knew the situation was bad when I looked down at my phone and saw, not a text from my hockey loving friends, but my own mother explaining the situation.
Why the Bruins Will Win the Stanley Cup
In the middle of May with just three teams left in Stanley Cup contention, most hockey fans patiently wait for the NHL Draft. Without a dog in the fight, it’s easy to find a reason to root against each team. Maybe, you’re dreading the success of the pesky Boston Bruins and Brad Marchand, who could
DAB Trade Series: Arizona Coyotes
For today’s DAB trade series, we’re going to go down to the land of rattlesnakes, cactuses (or is it cacti?), and blown Mariano Rivera saves (I’m not over the 2001 World Series) in Phoenix, Arizona to look at the Arizona Coyotes.

And today, we’ll continue our little look at the Pacific Division. Last week, I took a long gander at the Los Angeles Kings, and now we’re going
DAB Trade Series: Chicago Blackhawks
The New Jersey Devils have some work to do this off-season when it comes to reaching the next competitive level. For another installment in the Trade Series, we will be looking at players from the Chicago Blackhawks who the Devils should target through a trade.

When it comes to making a deal with the Blackhawks, it is important to remember that they are also a team similar to the Devils who already have a good amount of talent on their roster and maybe do not have as many holes to fill to get back to their dominance in the Western Conference.
