11 NHL Teams Without a Stanley Cup

11 NHL Teams Without a Stanley Cup

October 15th, 2020 Winning in the NHL is anything but easy. When considering how hard it is to win each individual battle within the game while also trying to come out ahead in the games themselves over the course of a season, the difficulty level increases exponentially. This is why winning a Stanley Cup is something that has eluded so many...
Flames Ready to Repay Avalanche in Season Opener

Flames Ready to Repay Avalanche in Season Opener

October 3rd, 2019 Yesterday’s news. That’s the Calgary Flames' attitude as they start the new season, putting last spring’s first-round playoff flop behind them and looking ahead to a lengthier Stanley Cup chase. The defending NHL Pacific Division champs can exact a modicum of revenge on the Colorado Avalanche — the team that booted them — as...
Flames Face Playoff Nemesis Avalanche in Season-Opener

Flames Face Playoff Nemesis Avalanche in Season-Opener

October 2nd, 2019 CALGARY — By design or coincidence, NHL schedulers injected an extra dose of drama in the Calgary Flames' season-opener. Calgary's first opponent of the 2019-20 season is the Colorado Avalanche, a team that conjures unpleasant memories f...
Rantanen's Injury News Reveals Avalanche Failure

Rantanen's Injury News Reveals Avalanche Failure

June 19th, 2019 Information recently leaked out that Mikko Rantanen played the second round Game 7 against the San Jose Sharks with a hairline fracture in his leg last week. The news didn’t come from the Colorado Avalanche. It didn’t come from any of the media in Denver. It seeped out on Twitter from news reports in Finland. Mikko Rantanen's...
Blues' Penalty Kill Has Them on Verge of Cup

Blues' Penalty Kill Has Them on Verge of Cup

June 7th, 2019 Something is missing from the Boston power play. The uninterrupted puck movement and cross-ice passes to a wide open David Pastrnak aren't there anymore. Torey Krug isn't getting the chance to fire away from the top. Patrice Bergeron isn't dominating b...
Berube's Blues Living Dangerously, On Verge of Winning Cup

Berube's Blues Living Dangerously, On Verge of Winning Cup

June 7th, 2019 BOSTON — Craig Berube's bunch likes to live dangerously. In Game 5 alone, Ivan Barbashev got away with a high hit on Marcus Johansson and Zach Sanford got his elbow up into Torey Krug's head and avoided a penalty. Alex Steen went straight to the penalt...
Blues Wearing Down Bruins in Battle of Attrition

Blues Wearing Down Bruins in Battle of Attrition

June 6th, 2019 BOSTON — Twice the Boston Bruins have been forced to finish a Stanley Cup Final game down a defenceman. The St. Louis Blues won each time. That's not a coincidence. Wearing out opponents and winning the war of attrition has been an ingredient of the Bl...
Golden Knights: Third Time's the Charm?

Golden Knights: Third Time's the Charm?

June 4th, 2019 The Vegas Golden Knights have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the Western Conference. In just two seasons as a franchise, the Golden Knights exceeded expectations by reaching the Stanley Cup Playoffs both times, making the Final in their inaugural season. Despite coming up short the past two seasons, Vegas...
Blues Beat Bruins 4-2 to Knot Stanley Cup Final at 2-2

Blues Beat Bruins 4-2 to Knot Stanley Cup Final at 2-2

June 4th, 2019 ST. LOUIS — Ryan O'Reilly scored the go-ahead goal midway through the third period for his second of the night, and the St. Louis Blues thrived in a chaotic Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday night to beat the Boston Bruins 4-2 and tie the serie...
Blues Get Dunn and Sundqvist Back for Game 4

Blues Get Dunn and Sundqvist Back for Game 4

June 3rd, 2019 The St. Louis Blues were embarrassed on home ice in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, losing 7-2 to the Boston Bruins. Though there is no excuse for a performance like that, especially in such a momentous game, the team was significantly undermanned. They played without Robert Thomas and Vince Dunn, who were injured, and Oskar Sundqvist,...
Poetry on Ice: Bruins' Potent Power Play is Key to Cup Final

Poetry on Ice: Bruins' Potent Power Play is Key to Cup Final

June 3rd, 2019 ST. LOUIS — Patrice Bergeron wins the faceoff and Jake DeBrusk retrieves the puck for Torey Krug, who waits just long enough for Bergeron to set up and shoots it at his stick for a textbook deflection goal. This is the Boston Bruins' masterful power pl...
Bruins Rout Blues 7-2, Take 2-1 Lead in Stanley Cup Final

Bruins Rout Blues 7-2, Take 2-1 Lead in Stanley Cup Final

June 2nd, 2019 ST. LOUIS — Patrice Bergeron and the Boston Bruins' best players took the criticism to heart. They weren't good enough through the first two games of the Stanley Cup Final and needed to be better. And they were. The stars came out on Saturday night and...
Blues Must Balance Emotion, Discipline at Home in Cup Final

Blues Must Balance Emotion, Discipline at Home in Cup Final

June 1st, 2019 ST. LOUIS — Tyler Bozak witnessed the first NHL playoff game in Toronto after a seven-year drought. David Perron experienced the first Stanley Cup Final game in Las Vegas. They ain't seen nothin' yet. When the St. Louis Blues host the Boston Bruins in ...
Bruins: Grzelcyk's Injury Will Test Team Depth, Resilience

Bruins: Grzelcyk's Injury Will Test Team Depth, Resilience

May 30th, 2019 Matt Grzelcyk's departure from Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final at the hands of Oskar Sundqvist was an unfortunate literal and figurative hit that the Boston Bruins certainly didn't need to deal with. While the hit resulted in a penalty, the Bruins failed to capitalize on the man-advantage and would eventually fall in overtime to the...
Blues Lose Robert Thomas for Game 2

Blues Lose Robert Thomas for Game 2

May 29th, 2019 The St. Louis Blues will take the ice against the Boston Bruins tonight for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final, but they will be without one of their most dynamic forwards. Rookie Robert Thomas, who has been the driving force behind the team's third line, will not be playing in this pivotal matchup. There has been much discussion about...
