It’s funny writing posts like this one because I remember being an Edmonton Oilers follower in like 2011 when they couldn’t win a game. Now, you get household names like Frank Seravalli saying this about them. https://twitter.com/dailyfaceoff/status/1689324739804962816?s=46&t=Z5zGFS7wegvgC8LkKHXuoA It's pretty amazing just to hear the Edmonton Oilers mentioned as one of the model franchises of the … Continue reading Edmonton Oilers Have Become Destination Hockey

The Hockey Guy Shannon
This guy, where he's been all my life, I don't know. Last night, I found The Hockey Guy on YouTube. He's amazing to me.

Boston Bruins: Milan Lucic Returns to Beantown
Man, Milan Lucic has always carried my respect in NHL culture. He was the backbone of that bad ass Bruins team that won the Stanley Cup with Chara, Tyler Seguin and the like in 2011. Now, he's headed back to Boston. https://twitter.com/spittinchiclets/status/1686735762560094209?s=20 Interestingly, it sounds like Lucic considered going to the Chicago Blackhawks, which would … Continue reading Boston Bruins: Milan Lucic Returns to Beantown
Columbus Blue Jackets Have Mike Babcock Coaching The Bunch?
I didn't realize that back on July 1, the Columbus Blue Jackets hired Mike Babcock as their ninth head coach in Franchise history. It's hard to believe that they have had just nine to be honest. Ken Hitchcock and John Tortorella preceded Babcock, and I wanted to learn more about the man himself and what … Continue reading Columbus Blue Jackets Have Mike Babcock Coaching The Bunch?
