Jordan Skuse
Much maligned GM overseeing several underperforming fantasy franchises... Born in Montreal, grew up in Cobourg (an hour east of Toronto), and have been watching hockey since I could hold one of those old plastic mini-sticks (anybody else remember curving those bad boys on the stove top?). Hope everyone enjoys all the great content on THW website. Cheers.

(x) Golden Knights Clinch Playoff Berth
March 27th, 2018 'X' finally marks the spot for the Vegas Golden Knights, having officially stamped their playoff ticket following a 4-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche. From day one of season one, the Golden Knights never gave the hockey world a chance to doubt them. Eight wins in October, then they stayed the course in November – going 7-5-1 –...
Golden Knights Playoff Preview

February 6th, 2018 For more than a decade, Marc-Andre Fleury was the unquestioned starting goaltender for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Everybody remembers his spectacular Cup-clinching save on Nick Lidstrom; the native of Sorel-Tracey, QC has always had a knack for theatrics. Professional sports can be a cruel business, and nobody knows this better than...
Who Would You Start? Fleury or Price?
January 23rd, 2018 Forget all the dream matchups...men's hockey in South Korea will look and feel vastly different compared to years past. The NHL has, as we all know, elected to take a pass on the 2018 Olympics – the last time such an event occurred? 1994. Instead, the 2018 Winter Games will feature many former NHL players, most of whom have...
Golden Knights Must Improve off the Strip
January 19th, 2018 In terms of home attendance, the Vegas Golden Knights reside in the middle of the pack – an accomplishment when you think back to all the skepticism surrounding the market's ability to support hockey. However, it gets even better when you dig deeper. The team ranks 4th in 'home attendance percentage' (103%). Add T-Mobile to the long...
