I’ll admit that I have a special hatred for the Pittsburg Penguins and their captain but the feelings I have about this aren’t all pointed at Crosby. As these playoffs move forward, the popular complaint is that the... [Read more of this article]
The Locker Roomby bill1082
May 13, 2009
All the time, I hear about how a player can disrupt a team’s chemistry because that single player might have a difficult personality. The other players may not like the guy but it doesn’t translate to on ice play does it? Sean Avery is hated everywhere but besides Lundqvist, he was the only Ranger to show up in this years playoffs. Most of the time,... [Read more of this article]

When a NHL team plays with passion, you will see a result much like we saw on 4/19/09. Despite Pittsburg scoring 3 times, the Flyers never gave up on the game.
