McGuinness: Finding the perfect deadline target for every NHL playoff team

Andrew McGuinness | Wednesday, March 16, 2022

The NHL equivalent of Christmas — the trade deadline — is almost here. In less than a week, the landscape of the league will look completely different. Contenders will gear up to address their weaknesses and push for the Stanley Cup. Rebuilding teams have the chance to haul in loads of picks and prospects that will

McGuinness: Moving Max Ellis To The Slaggert Line Could Be The Boost ND’s Offense Needs

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, January 21, 2022

The history of hockey has been dominated by great lines. Detroit’s Production Line in the 1950s of Mr. Hockey Gordie Howe, Sid Abel and Ted Linsday. Philadelphia’s famous Legion of Doom in the 1990s of John LeClair, Eric Lindros and Mikael Renberg. More recently, Boston’s vaunted Perfection Line of Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron and David

Adams: The best pro sports jerseys, pt. 1

Hayden Adams | Monday, September 14, 2020

Whether it’s to relive glory days on the court, pitch or gridiron, or it’s to live vicariously through others, sports fans love to wear the jersey of their favorite team or athlete. A lot goes into a good jersey, but I think we can all agree the two main ingredients are the design (the team

Hoonhout: Why Blaise Pascal would want me to root for Ovechkin and the Caps

Tobias Hoonhout | Wednesday, April 25, 2018

Hello darkness, my old friend. The Capitals and the Penguins are meeting yet again in the postseason, now for the third year running.

Michael Ivey | Friday, April 13, 2018

The Stanley Cup Playoffs began Wednesday night, and there is certainly no shortage of storylines for the 16 teams competing for Lord Stanley’s chalice. First, you have one of the most surprising stories — not just in hockey, but perhaps in all of sports within the last decade — in the Vegas Golden Knights, who shocked

Concannon: Assessing the ups and downs of the NHL trade deadline

Jack Concannon | Friday, March 2, 2018

Sometimes, a good team is just one piece away from great. Almost every contender has those one or two holes it wants to fill before the postseason starts, and Monday’s trade deadline was every team’s opportunity to do just that.

Ivey: Jagr deserves a better ending

Michael Ivey | Wednesday, January 31, 2018

Monday, Calgary Flames forward Jaromir Jagr cleared waivers and was assigned to play the rest of the season with a professional hockey team in the Czech Republic, HC Kladno. The move very likely represents the end of Jagr’s storied 24-year NHL career. Jagr, who will turn 46 in February, saw a decrease in production this

Carson: NHL needs to change playoff format

Alex Carson | Wednesday, February 22, 2017

In 2002, then-New York Jets head coach Herm Edwards uttered one of the most recognizable press conference quotes of all time, reminding the world that, yes, “You play to win the game.” At least in theory. On Friday night in Columbus, Ohio, two of the NHL’s four best teams met in a game that lived up

Michael Ivey | Thursday, March 31, 2016

It’s that time of year again. The season is ending for most college teams and their fans are wondering if some of their players will stay in college or take their talents to the professional level.
