In order to make the playoffs, the Cats need to finish 29-13-6 which seems impossible. However if the team can get a nice 6 or 7 game win … Continue reading How to turn this year around

A couple of years ago, Jayce Hawryluk was in the top 3 ranks of Panther prospects. He was expected to come in and play a 3rd line winger role as a Brad Marchand type role. Then the injuries came. Hawryluk broke his hand in a rookie game fight at 2016-17 camp against Capitals rookie Jakub … Continue reading Jayce Hawryluk has gotten his development back on track

So this segment will be where I'm looking at what is happening around the league and giving my thoughts. Blackhawks fire Joel Quenneville- Well this was unexpected. After 10 years behind the bench in Chicago, Joel Quenneville is out. The Blackhawks are currently on a five game losing streak. Quenneville's tenure has seen the Blackhawks capture … Continue reading NHL Notes 11/6/18

The Florida Panthers are currently dead last. Yes I know it is only 3 games in but that is completely unacceptable. Losing to good teams like Tampa and Columbus is fine but you can't lose to Vancouver. I'm going to go on a rant. If you are saying don't push the panic button you are … Continue reading Dead Last: Recap on Vancouver and Rant
