Ok, this is great. Thanks to Fooks for tipping us off on this one. We admit that we are in the tank for the Philadelphia Flyers, but this is hysterical. In Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals Monday night, the Philadelphia Flyers lost 2-1 to the Chicago Blackhawks to go down two games to [...]
We post this knowing full well that it’s a pretty awful song. This dude sHERBS (it’s either him or his group, but we don’t really care) made a rap song about the Philadelphia Flyers. We would suspect that you’d have to be a pretty hardcore fan (and deaf) to really appreciate this song that we [...]
The Philadelphia Flyers are into the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1997, when they were lambasted by the Detroit Red Wings. Mike Richards is part of the reason they have made it this far and are squaring off with the Chicago Blackhawks. We admit, we love these “History Will Be Made” NHL [...]
The Philadelphia Flyers took down the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night for the fourth time in the series. By NHL rules, that means that they won the series and will advance to the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1997, when they had their lunch eaten by the Detroit Red Wings. The Chicago Blackhawks [...]
The Chicago Blackhawks have named Antti Niemi as their starting goalie for Tuesday night’s showdown with the Dallas Stars. Niemi had 34 saves on Saturday to help the ‘Hawks break a three-game losing streak and beat the St. Louis Blues 2-1. The last time Niemi started back to back games? He got pulled in the [...]
The Chicago Blackhawks have announced that they have signed Jonathan Toews, Duncan Keith and former first-overall pick Patrick Kane to contract extensions. Kane and Toews, both 21, each got five-year $31.5 million deals. Meanwhile, Keith, 26, signed a 13-year (someone explain the NHL cap to us. This just seems reeeeaaally stupid) $72 million contract. “We [...]
The Philadelphia Flyers thought they lost out in 2007 when they lost a coin flip that would have given them the #1-overall pick in the NHL draft. The Chicago Blackhawks selected Patrick Kane with that pick and the Flyers settled for James Van Riemsdyk. The Blackhawks may have the better player right now, but at [...]
The NHL is looking into the Philadelphia Flyers’ seven-year, $34.5 million deal with defenseman Chris Pronger, a league source confirmed to the Philadelphia Daily News. They will also be taking a gander at the Blackhawks 12-year deal with Marian Hossa. The NHL wants to find out if the Flyers and/or Blackhawks and/or any other team [...]
Former Blackhawk Martin Havlat has signed with the Minnesota Wild (that’s a professional hockey team…….no,… ice) for six years and $30 million. Havlat became expendable when the Hawks dumped $62.8 million into Marian Hossa on a 12-year deal. 12? Seriously? We have to get a better understanding of the NHL cap because Hossa will probably [...]
According to TSN.ca, which seems to be the main source for ice hockey news (we don’t know if they cover field hockey, but if they do we’re sure they do a good job), the Red Wings won’t extend the contract of Chris Chelios. In other news, Chris Chelios still plays hockey. Who knew? “I met [...]
