Winger, Brian Gionta , will be out of the Montreal Canadiens lineup indefinitely due to a broken foot . This isn’t great news for the team, obviously, but coach Jacques Martin is hoping it will inspire the rest of the Habs to step up their effort.

Almost every hockey fan has seen a seriously bad call made by the officiators but this one is probably the worst I’ve seen in a long time.
The Detroit Red Wings were looking for a game-tying goal and they got it. The only problem was that it was deemed a non-goal and I can’t ...

Jose Theodore left his team to fly back to Washington for personal reasons. They take on the New York Rangers tonight and will have Semyon Varlamov between the pipes but have called up Michal Neuvirth from the AHL to serve as a backup.

I’m guessing Markus Naslund didn’t enjoy the retired life since he’s reactivated himself and will be joining Modo , his first pro club. He seems to be done with the NHL after 15 years so I hope he enjoys himself over in Europe.

I have to confess – I didn’t watch most of Battle of the Blades partly out of embarrassment since everyone else in my house thought it was lame and partly because I’ve just been so flipping busy. Either way, I have been keeping an eye on it since it’s really like ...

The Vancouver Canucks have had a rough start to the season after the roster dwindled when star players got injured. Among them is Daniel Sedin , who has now missed his 17th game with a fractured foot, his first major injury in his nine-year NHL career.

Carrie Underwood has been dating Ottawa Senators player, Mike Fisher , for almost a year now and it seems like the relationship is still going strong. She sat down for an interview on In the Spotlight with Robin Roberts and talked about how her life has changed since leaving her small town and ...

It’s tough to lose a player from the lineup but I’m sure the Chicago Blackhawks were particularly unhappy to learn that Dave Bolland would be on the injured reserve for 3-4 months.
The 23-year-old center had to have surgery to repair a herniated disk in his back. In 13 games this season, he ...

As a Calgary Flames fan, I’ve had a really hard time watching goaltender, Miikka Kiprusoff , go from this incredible talent with so much promise, to a struggling player. I realize that he was exceptionally good when he joined the team but I never figured it was a fluke. I also know that he ...

Jean-Sebastien Giguere has recovered from the groin pull he suffered late last month and, while he recuperated, Jonas Hiller started the last six games but, unlike Carey Price , Giguere has made it very clear that he wants his #1 spot back and he’d go to extreme measures to avoid being anyone’s ...

With Carey Price struggling, Jaroslav Halak has been used as the starting goaltender more than some expected. I’ve been pretty happy for the backup goaltender since I think he’s got some talent but needs more ice time to develop. Price has actually been pretty cool about it (I even have ...

I hate skate injuries. They are such a reminder of how dangerous the game can really be. Carolina Hurricanes goaltender, Cam Ward , is in the hospital after his leg was cut open by the skate of Rick Nash . The injury occurred during the first period of their game against the Columbus Blue ...

So far, this season is off to a real sub-standard start for the Detroit Red Wings . They are currently hovering around the 16th spot in the league which is a far cry from the smoking hot start of their twice-in-a-row Stanley Cup Finals the Pittsburgh Penguins (currently #2 behind ...

Shane O’Brien strikes again. He’s hot-tempered and I think he gets into more penalty trouble than he should and this is no exception. The NHL has suspended the Vancouver Canucks defenceman after his stick made contact with New York Rangers player, Sean Avery , while they were both ...

I live in Calgary and, like many places in the world, the locals are scrambling to get vaccinated against the H1N1 virus (a.k.a. swine flu). The Canadian government isn’t charging residents for the shot but each province has to manage how they get rolled out.

After Anaheim Ducks defenceman James Wisniewski took a forearm to the head of forward Shane Doan over the weekend, the NHL has decided that the action warrants a two-game suspension .

Simon Gagne has been diagnosed with two small hernias in his right groin and will out of the Philadelphia Flyers’ lineup for six to eight weeks which, of course, sucks. That basically means that he won’t be coming back until the new year.
