Hockey Canada and P.K. Subban

Hockey Canada and P.K. Subban

March 2nd, 2016 So what gives? While it has yet to be made official it appears as though Hockey Canada has decided to leave Montreal Canadiens defenceman P.K.

Canada Trumps Russia In First Summer Tune-Up

Canada Trumps Russia In First Summer Tune-Up

August 4th, 2015 Mitch Marner is pretty good at ice hockey.

Will Youngstars Experiment Fall Flat in 2016 World Cup?

Will Youngstars Experiment Fall Flat in 2016 World Cup?

June 9th, 2015 Like advertisements on NHL uniforms, the re-institution of the World Cup of Hockey was inevitable.

Hockey Canada Can Forget about Getting Bo Horvat for WJC

December 6th, 2014 Rookie Bo Horvat is too Valuable to Lend The Canucks never expected 19-year-old rookie Bo Horvat to explode into the NHL the way he did this year.

The Demise of Canadian Goalies

January 6th, 2014 Patrick Roy.  Jacques Plante.  Martin Brodeur.  Ken Dryden.  Glenn Hall.  The list of superstar Canadian goalies of the past could go on forever.  It could be argued that nine of the top ten goaltenders in the history of hockey are all Canadians, with Dominik Hasek being the obvious exception.  For the first 135 years of the...
