Perhaps the most dominate player in the Flames-Canucks series so far, Michael Ferland has an amazing back story as well. “It’s just great,” Hartley said. “We had a great meeting one-on-one a year ago in my office. That’s where it started. I watch those guys like a mother hawk … he opened up and we […]
Like many Canadians, I’ve always been a huge hockey fan. I’ve got the requisite pictures of myself around three years old playing hockey against my grandma’s legs as she sits on the couch, I was one of those kids who could name every player on every team plus their hometowns, stats, and shooting hand. But […]
I’ve got a bit of a theme going lately with all the playoff excitement so let’s keep it going… NHL.com and NHL Network Staff (Rangers vs. Blackhawks seems the consensus) EA NHL 15 (Ducks vs. Rangers) Jason Hammond (Montreal vs. Minnesota) …and if you haven’t, you should check out NHL Bracket Challenge to play along […]

As a long-time pro wrestling fan, I can’t decide if this clip is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen (those inside jokes!) or the worst (such a strange way to try to explain the appeal of wrestling.) But if you don’t want to watch the whole thing, it’s worth watching the last three minutes as […]
After injuries to their top two goalies, third-string Ottawa Senators’ goalie (and possible long-lost distant cousin?) Andrew Hammond was an emergency call-up for the Sens a month ago. In that short time, Hammond has set his team on fire while tying a record for goalies at the start of their career that stretches back to 1938. In each […]
