If you have anything else going on right now, don’t bother to read this post. It’s quite stupid. If Montreal can beat Washington, Washington will continue to have zero points, as will Philadelphia if they lose to the Rangers tonight. Montreal will have 4 points, the same as Toronto if the Leafs can lose to [...]

In retrospect, why did so many of us think Mats Sundin was going to be the saviour of hockey mankind? He fooled so many people, he’s the modern day version of Harry Houdini. Toronto, Montreal, the Rangers, and finally, Vancouver, all wined and dined him like the NHL would have done in 1972 to Valeri [...]

Whew, that was a close one for Sean Avery. Imagine if he’d have to play another series? These last seven games against the Capitals have already cut in severely to his fashion/designer job. Now that the Rangers are gonzo, Sean can finally concentrate on more important things. Being in the playoffs must’ve been a bummer. However, having said that, [...]

Montreal was supposed to win the game. That’s about as big an understatement as I’ve ever come up with. And the reasons are obvious: They’re trying to leave the Florida Panthers in their dust and stay solid in the playoff hunt. And they’re a better team than the young and injury-ridden New York Islanders. As simple as [...]

Yes, they lost 4-3 to the New Yorkers. And yes, this isn’t good. But at least they got a point. And there were a few good things to focus on. Like Alex Kovalev playing quite well except for those times when he was a puck hog. Then there was that move by Maxim Lapierre to [...]

In a nutshell, it looks like this. The Canadiens and Rangers, who play each other tonight, both have 80 points, just two points away from being out of the playoff picture. There’s nothing more I can add to this.

Several times when John Tortorella was a panelist on TSN, he let it be known loud and clear that he wouldn’t have Sean Avery on his team. He didn’t mince words. He never does. Now, more and more we’re hearing that Avery will join the New York Rangers, the team Tortorella was just hired to coach. [...]
