Canucks Top 4th-Line Heroes: #10 Through #6

Canucks Top 4th-Line Heroes: #10 Through #6

August 24th, 2017 Too often in hockey, we idolize the best players on the ice. It's not without merit, but why do we always forget about the little guy? Or in this case, the big guy. Sometimes the guys on the fourth-line are just as impactful as the top scorer. Whether they create energy with a good shift, throw a big hit, or stand up for a teammate...
Malkin, Sestito & "The Code"

Malkin, Sestito & "The Code"

March 9th, 2017 Fighting in hockey and the enforcer mentality, in general, is a highly debated topic these days. Not only are fanbases split almost directly down the middle, NHL teams are as well. The Pittsburgh Penguins are a great example of a group who left the old school outlook on toughness behind to build a team that could compete in today's NHL....
Penguins’ Free Agency Update

Penguins’ Free Agency Update

July 1st, 2016 Prior to the start of free agency, the Penguins re-signed Tom Sestito and Steve Oleksy. The Oleksy deal, a one-year, two-way contract for $575k, keeps a decent right-handed defenseman in the organization. I do like this depth signing, which likely further limits anything else that Jim Rutherford might do today. As @fantabulous937...
Tom Sestito Could Help the Penguins Win the Series

Tom Sestito Could Help the Penguins Win the Series

May 4th, 2016 Hockey today is a lot different from what it used to be 30 years ago. It has even changed a lot over the course of the last five years. Fights have plummeted, there are less incidents requiring the league to engage supplemental discipline and the enforcer type-of-hockey-player is a threatened species, a dinosaur from the olden days. Tom...
Penguins: Was Playing Matt Murray Worth the Risk?

Penguins: Was Playing Matt Murray Worth the Risk?

April 9th, 2016 The Pittsburgh Penguins played a meaningless game on Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers. Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang were rightly kept out of the game to avoid the risk of injury. Penguins’ Coach Mike Sullivan decided to play goalie Matt Murray rather than sit him in favor of Jeff Zatkoff who normally sits third on the depth...
Penguins Give Tom Sestito PTO

Penguins Give Tom Sestito PTO

August 26th, 2015 The Pittsburgh Penguins have given former Vancouver Canucks enforcer Tom Sestito a professional tryout contract (PTO) to attend Penguins camp and vie for a roster spot with the club, the team announced on Wednesday. Sestito had a tumultuous 2014-15 season, frequently being in the news as a player the Vancouver Canucks were openly...
Hockey News: Tarasenko Dazzles in Blues Victory

Hockey News: Tarasenko Dazzles in Blues Victory

November 4th, 2014 The NHL took a little bit of a breather on Monday night with just one game on the schedule.  After a real busy weekend it was kind of nice to just have one game to keep track of, and what a game it was.  It featured two playoff teams from a year ago and needed a shootout to decide the victor. Tarasenko Carries Blues Past...
Canucks Corner - Week 4 Review

Canucks Corner - Week 4 Review

October 27th, 2013 The longest road trip for the Vancouver Canucks is over. Who would've thought that they would finish on the road with five wins out of seven games? The support on the twitter-verse is mostly positive this week, albeit hilarious. Canucks are third in overall league standings in the first month of the season?! This is lovely,...
