With the series now tied at two, San Jose has now made their first round match-up way more interesting than anticipated after thrashing Edmonton 7-0 last night. Their fear leading into the postseason was whether their offensive firepower that has made them so good in recent memory would is no longer existent because of a […]
It’s happening again. The Capitals are facing a two games to one deficit despite being favorites to win the whole Stanley Cup tournament, let alone the series. This is not 2008, where you could argue such a young team had nowhere to go but down after being so white-hot to make it into the dance. […]
People, this Penguins-Blue Jackets series should not be this easy. But here we are. Pittsburgh came back from a 3-1 deficit last night and basically took the Blue Jackets to the woodshed since the second period until Jake Guentzel put them out of their misery. To go along with that, in the most Pittsburgh way […]
Another Capitals playoff home game, another loss. What else is new for a city that has been in a 25-year title drought that nobody ever talks about? Welp, how about the fact that I should tell you that the Capitals are doing fine. For now. With last night’s 4-3 loss, the series Washington has with […]
So the only game I was able to watch last night was the third period of the Oilers-Sharks game and boy did Edmonton take them to the cleaners. The Oilers certainly had the potential to do this because they were easily the younger, fresher and hotter team than San Jose was. And all that has […]
When writing for the Hockey Writers, I tried to build a feature around something I found interesting through a couple of Capitals playoffs games. At the DC Sports Dork, I have decided to expand on this venture and write one narrative on the at least one game every night of the postseason. Boy do people […]
Some say Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year, but to me, it is when high temperatures are set in stone to be 60 degrees fahrenheit or better and we all celebrate it by going indoors and watching playoff hockey or basketball. By the time this festive period is over, it will be […]
As we hit the last two days of the NHL regular season, now should be a time to finally get excited that the Stanley Cup playoffs are upon us. Instead, news broke out that the NHL will no longer allow their players to freely play for their countries in any future Olympic Hockey tournaments. Money […]
Here we go ladies and gentlemen! We’re down to the last 10 days of the NHL regular season and the field of sixteen to make this year’s playoffs is just about set. What’s remaining is who will get the third seed in the Atlantic Division and who will be the second wild card team in […]
And just like that, there are only two more weeks left in this NHL regular season. Micah Blake McCurdy is working overtime to get his playoff spider up and running and every Maple Leafs fan is trying to keep their heart from vomiting out of their bodies in hopes of making the playoffs. These are […]
