Crosby Presser Brings Some Clarity to Penguins’ Preseason

Anyone expecting Sidney Crosby to announce his retirement during Tuesday’s press conference—as so many of the Canadian media seemed to try to goad out of the 24 year old—came to the presser with unrealistic expectations. The media session provided only what fans and reporters should have known all along—that Crosby won’t return until he is ...

Sidney Crosby Brings Celebrity To Concussion Debate

Dan Bylsma Looking for Competitive Advantage at R&D Camp

If Jack Adams Awards are any indication, recent winners Dan Bylsma and Dave Tippett are two of the best coaches in the NHL today.

Is Sidney Crosby Progressing for the Upcoming Season?

It was rumored on Josh Rimer’s Twitter post that Sidney Crosby is still experiencing concussion-like symptoms. Rimer tweeted that Crosby is said to be having setbacks. Rimer claims that Crosby will not be ready for the start of the 2011-2012 season. One has to wonder how much truth is behind Rimer’s post or whether he is ...

Replaying The Islanders/Penguins Dust-Up of 2011

A bad movie sequel can really damage your faith in humanity.  You may try to comfort yourself with the mantra “It’s just a movie, it’s just a movie…” but something is eating your Gilbert Grape: “They Missed The Point!”.

Saying Kaddish in Nashville: The Predators Departed, 2011 Edition

Seasoned fans are only too aware that this is the time of the year when owners and GMs will assure everyone that old favorites are being sent out to live on a farm where they can be happy and run free. With the totality of every heart that beats in a sweater (be it NHL issued or an eBay knockoff) we want to believe that there is a hockey Nirvana where everyone gets to be Gordie Howe forever. The truth is that time, injuries and salary caps take their toll and names are removed from above the wooden benches in locker rooms all over the continent.
