Knowing full well that a lot of you will disagree with me – hell, I’m disagreeing with my initial reaction – I ask whether Darroll Powe should be suspended for his hit on Jaroslav Spacek. We can mostly agree that Spacek put himself in such a vulnerable position and is therefore at least partially responsible…
After Latvia shocked the world last night by killing off seven of eight Russian power plays, the Olympic tournament continues on with three games, the last of which is by far the most interesting. Group B Game 6: Russia (1-0-1-0) vs. Czech Republic (2-0-0-0) – 3 PM – MSNBC: Broken and beaten from their respective…
Is it possible, that just three months after the playoffs seemed like an impossibility, that the Flyers could wind up in fifth place in the East? Or fourth? What about third? Or even second?

Today might be like a mini version of trade deadline day. With the Olympics freezing rosters at 3 PM Eastern today, teams are going to try to get ahead of the curve and move some players before that deadline. We’ve seen one move this morning as Carolina sent Matt Cullen to Ottawa and we will…
There is something foul in Philadelphia far beyond the goaltending fiasco that has become the focal point of the NHL’s most disappointing team. We’re not there on a day-to-day basis, so we can’t claim first-hand knowledge, but when two league GMs were asked what they perceived to be the problem, neither hesitated. “Pronger,” each said,…
