Jets' 5 Greatest U.S.-born Players

Jets' 5 Greatest U.S.-born Players

January 20th, 2021 The NHL awarded its first Vezina Trophy, honoring the league's top regular-season goalie, in 1926-27. Since then, only six U.S.-born netminders have earned the award. As you know, Connor Hellebuyck is poised to become the first in Jets' history to win the Vezina, and first U.S.-native to do so since 2011, when Boston's Tim Thomas won...
Coyotes Top 5 Moments and Players in Franchise History

Coyotes Top 5 Moments and Players in Franchise History

January 14th, 2021 Hockey is back, albeit in a different form. New divisions, little or no fans, a shortened schedule, and a January start are all products of COVID-19. This is not your usual NHL season. That said, the league is playing meaningful games again, and that is just what fans have been yearning for. In the Valley, things are extra special...
Top 5 Jets 1.0 Draft Picks of All Time

Top 5 Jets 1.0 Draft Picks of All Time

December 7th, 2020 Winnipeg Jets' general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff is often heralded for his deftness at the draft table, and deservedly so. Through a patient draft-and-develop strategy, he's turned the second incarnation of the Winnipeg Jets from a team nearly no assets and laughable depth into a legitimate contender. He's largely avoided...

Today in Hockey History: Oct. 12

October 12th, 2020 Oct. 12 was another very busy date in National Hockey League history. The laundry list of milestones occurring on this date includes two teams getting their first-ever wins, a bunch of first goals, some great goaltending and the 100,000th goal ever scored in NHL play. Two Teams Score First Victory After losing their NHL debut to...
Winnipeg Jets' 50-Goal Scorers

Winnipeg Jets' 50-Goal Scorers

September 22nd, 2020 Since relocating from Atlanta in 2011, the second incarnation of the Winnipeg Jets has not had a 50-goal scorer (although Ilya Kovalchuk did accomplish the feat twice with the Thrashers, scoring 52 in both 2005-06 and 2007-08.) While reaching the 50-goal plateau is less common and more impressive an accomplishment now than it was in...

The Original Jets' Last-Ever Regular Season Game

The Original Jets' Last-Ever Regular Season Game

August 30th, 2020 On April 14, 24 years ago, the original Winnipeg Jets played their last-ever regular season game, just a few months prior to their relocation to Phoenix, Arizona. It did not go well, and was the last big missed opportunity for a franchise that missed many. The Final Game of a Season-Long Funeral The date was April 14, 1996. The...
Best NHL Players Not in the Hockey Hall of Fame

Best NHL Players Not in the Hockey Hall of Fame

June 29th, 2020 The recent 2020 Hockey Hall of Fame (HHOF) Class induction announcement caused a stir because of who was and was not included. I thought it would be interesting to dive into who are the best eligible players by position not in the Hall. There are several straight forward selections, like Pierre Turgeon (center), and some that go...
St. Louis Blues' Top 20 Goal Scorers All-Time

St. Louis Blues' Top 20 Goal Scorers All-Time

March 30th, 2020 In the history of the St. Louis Blues, we've seen many fantastic goal scorers. Some have spent their entire careers in St. Louis, and some are Hall of Famers who just stopped by. The rich history of the Blues is impressive for a 1967 expansion team. Here are the top 20. 1. Brett Hull: 527 Golden Brett played 744 games over 11...

NHL Family Ties: 2018 Draft Edition

June 26th, 2018 For fans that don’t follow college and junior hockey as intently of our great staff at The Hockey Writers, when the NHL Draft rolls around and we start hearing names called, some of the first reactions are generally: is he related to so-and-so? Well, here I am to connect all of the dots for those that aren’t sure if so-and-so is...
Hockey Hall of Fame Debates: Keith Tkachuk

Hockey Hall of Fame Debates: Keith Tkachuk

November 13th, 2017 In this series, we’re debating the merits of players who may have been overlooked for induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Using the Hall’s criteria of judging a player based on their “playing ability, sportsmanship, character and contributions to his or her team or teams and to the game of hockey in general” we will debate...
A Desert Getaway With the Sharks

A Desert Getaway With the Sharks

February 22nd, 2017 As I stood outside Gila River Arena waiting for the imminent downpour, the excitement began to set in. Home advantage has been the norm for me at SAP Center with the San Jose Sharks. To experience a road game with the boys in teal was on my bucket list. With the perfect opportunity, my cousins and I decided to pull the trigger and...
Alumni Game Revels in Blues History

Alumni Game Revels in Blues History

January 1st, 2017 ST. LOUIS — If the national excitement about outdoor games has abated some, the alumni game is undoubtedly facing the same fate. The energy level and seriousness is basically beer league hockey, except the guy wearing the Chris Chelios jersey is actually Chris Chelios and he'd probably skate circles around any beer league. But the...
Tkachuk's Value Shows in PIMs

Tkachuk's Value Shows in PIMs

November 25th, 2016 When Matthew Tkachuk entered the NHL this year, he didn't know if he was going to stay or go back to junior. Neither did Calgary Flames’ General Manager, Brad Treliving, who had been on the fence about the final decision. Like all rookies, Tkachuk needed to prove himself game after game and demonstrate why he deserved to stay....
The Winnipeg Jets at the Draft: Matthew Tkachuk

The Winnipeg Jets at the Draft: Matthew Tkachuk

April 4th, 2016 Another Tkachuk wearing a Winnipeg Jets jersey seems somehow fitting, almost providential, and it's closer to being reality than you might think. So here's the (so far hypothetical but entirely plausible) scenario: the draft lottery happens and, to the relief of the hockey world, the Edmonton Oilers do not win. They do, however, get...
