Naughty and Nice In The NHL

The Holiday season is in full swing, and with Christmas quickly approaching, the big guy in the red suit is sure to be sorting out his list of naughty and nice. In the NHL there is certainly no shortage of either and with six days to go until the big day here are those who have ...

Montreal Canadiens Fire Jacques Martin

Surprisingly, the Canadiens got a lot of heat for firing the well-liked assistant coach ...

Josh Gorges wakes up with the eyes of the hockey world upon him. A one-year contract for $2.5 Million. No arbitration. No long term deal. No bed of ...
