Habs News, Nill, Roy, Bruins Out and More
I assume most of us in these parts were pretty pleased to see the Boston Bruins ousted by the Washington Capitals.
And what a surprise, at least to a degree.
In the offseason, many, including myself, felt that George McPhee made tremendous moves to make the Captials a playoff contender.
However, at the...

Bruins Force Game Seven, Flyers and Kings Advance and More
It seems as if we have our first official upset of these playoffs, with the Los Angeles Kings defeating the President's Trophy winning Vancouver Cancucks.

Habs News, Clock Stop, Gill, Holtby and More
Wow. Can you imagine the proverbial gong show had the Boston Bruins scored in the dying seconds of last night's contest against the Washington Capitals?
With 9.5 seconds left in the game, the game-clock operator realized 0.9 seconds should have been added. But off-ice officials couldn't get the attention of the on-ice officials,...

Both the Pittsburgh Penguins and Vancouver Canucks avoiding getting swept in a big way last night.
The Pens crushed the Philadelphia Flyers by a ridiculous 10-3 margin. Mind you, the way this series has been played, that score should not come as a total shock to anyone. Even before last night, Ilya Bryzgalov was allowing...

Another eventful evening in the NHL playoffs, eh?
Phoenix Coyotes' forward Raffi Torres delivered a vicious, head-hunting hit to Chicago Blackhawks' winger Marian Hossa. No doubt more work for Shannahan, who already levied suspensions on Andrew Shaw, Niklas Backstrom, Aaron Asham and James Neal yesterday.
