Islanders outscore Penguins 6-4 And Lock Series Up At 2
I guess the Pittsburgh Penguins didn't learn their lesson from last year when goaltender Andre-Marc Fleury got bombed by the Philadelphia Flyers, or the year before that when they were also ousted in the 1st round. On Tuesday night Fleury stopped only 18 shots...

Rangers Win Game 3 Nail Biter, Still Trail 2-1 In Series
Ok Ranger fans you can breathe now. Wow what a heart stopper game 3 of the eastern conference quarter finals was. The Rangers held on, or perhaps better yet, the clock ran out on the Washington Capitals who ended the game with a power play chance that became a 2 man advantage when they pulled net minder Bradan Holtby but the clock ran out and the Rangers held on-barely beating the Caps 4-3 and pul

Can History Be Made At This Year’s Kentucky Derby- Bruce’s Thought Of The Day
With the sports media and news media all still caught up in the Jason Collins " I am gay" revelation ( amazing how they are all still stammering while the rest of us have moved on) history of another kind is getting little play but could be HUGE news...
The Rangers Lose Game 1 As The King Gets Crowned
Game 1 of the eastern conference match up between the Washington Capitals and the New York Rangers will not go down as 1 of the best moments of Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvists career. The reigning Vezina champion as the leagues best goalie in 2012 let in as soft a goal as you could, was out of position on another, and could have stopped the 3rd as well as the Caps beat the Rangers 3-1 to tak

The Islanders Return To The Playoffs-Allegedly.
Perhaps the NY Islanders forgot what playoff hockey is all about. It has been 7 years since the Isles played beyond the final regular season game so you can't blame them. 16 players played in their 1st playoff game of their careers. It showed as the Islanders were pounded by the Penguins 5-0 and it wasn't that close...
Time For The Knicks To Shut Up And Play The Game
