  • • 2024-25 Player Review: Kent Johnson showed improvement, found chemistry
    Despite netting 40 points in 79 games his rookie season in 2022-23, Kent Johnson didn’t have a sophomore slump: he had a sophomore dumpster fire. Last season he missed the team out of training camp, starting in Cleveland, only playing 42 games and registering 16 points, before getting injured in February and missing the rest of the season. This season, with a new coach, GM, and mindset, J...2025

    Well, we’re finally here: the last series of the 2024-25 NHL season. Ok, we’re not actually here, since for some reason it won’t start until Wednesday, even though both of the conference finals wrapped up last week. WHATEVER.

  • • 2024-25 Player Review: JVR was an unexpected VIP for the CBJ
    In early fall, Don Waddell found himself in desperate need of a forward. There was not only the tragic passing of Johnny Gaudreau, but also the trade of Patrik Laine a week before, and news that Justin Danforth’s recovery from off-season wrist surgery would keep him out for the duration of preseason, and possibly the start of the regular season. There were certainly prospects who could conte...2025

Team Canada cruised to an easy 5-0 win over Team France Tuesday at Avicii Arena to take the top spot in Group A. They share a 3-0 record with Sweden, but Canada’s 16 goals in three games stand alone.

    First Period Despite playing the second half of a back-to-back, the Rangers came out with more energy. They struck first with a wrap-around goal from Arthur Kaliyev.

He just bounced off, and Kaliyev was able to continue skating with speed behind the...2025
