New Jersey Devils 3 vs. Florida Panthers 2 Overtime (Series Tied 3-3) This game was pretty disciplined between both teams (hardly any penalties).  And the New Jersey Devils weren’t ready to end their run in the NHL Playoffs 2012 by giving up a win to the Florida Panthers.  The Devils win takes the series to a deciding Game 7 (the third [...]

Steve Mitchell-US PRESSWIRE

The Florida Panthers have a playoff tradition as old as the internet and it involves throwing rubber rats onto the ice. It’s not quite like Detroit’s time honored tradition of throwing an octopus on the ice, mainly because the Panthers have had very little in the way of playoff traditions. The practice of littering the ice with cat toys dates way, [...]

I want to commend the NHL for finally admitting they were wrong and for proving what we have been saying for the last several seasons, the disciplinary program is flawed. The 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs have been stained by the bad blood of cheap shots and dangerous violent attacks. Instead of enjoying eight really good [...]

Evan Habeeb - US PRESSWIRE

Both of last night’s eastern conference matchups of the NHL Playoffs 2012 were about the goaltending — elite goaltending from a veteran (Martin Brodeur) and a rookie who is just beginning what promises to be a long, successful career in the NHL if he continues to play like he is (Braden Holtby).
