Kopi-Star: Kings 5, Penguins 2
The Los Angeles Kings hosted the Pittsburgh Penguins last night and proved they deserve to be at the top of the standings. Things are clicking for the Kings and they show no signs of slowing down. Anze Kopitar is on FIRE and his line mates are providing support for him all the way. He is dominating...
How Hard Is It For A First Round Pick To Win A Stanley Cup?
James Mirtle at From The Rink had an interesting numbers crunch this morning, showing just how hard it is for an NHL'er to win the Stanley Cup. In the crunchdown, James' stats show what a small percentage of players playing at least on NHL game get to hoist the 33 pound mug. That got me...
St. Geno drives the snakes (and Thrashers) into the ocean...Pens win 6-2.
Who would have guessed six weeks ago that the two hottest teams in the Eastern Conference would meet when the Atlanta Thrashers would visit the PIttsburgh Penguins? No one. Still, Atlanta was riding a season long winning streak, they came in meaning business- even if noted Penguin killer Ilya...

Someone’s Gotta Make a Stand
The NHL’s weird little award show is on tonight (I’ll bet any amount of money that the Barenaked Ladies are going to be there), but I will not be watching. It’s been over a month since hockey writers made the appalling choice to nominate Jordan Staal over Anze Kopitar as NHL’s rookie of the year,...
