As I said above they are out of Harrisburg, PA. The reason they care is it affects the Hershey Bears.

Penn Live is part of the Harrisburg, Patriot news. They have never been known for their overly insightful sports reporting.

Absolutely!

Posted Monday June 17, 2013, About: NHL nips its dynasties in the bud

You don't see too many repeat champions in any sport these days. It takes the right mix of talent chemistry and luck (not necessarily in that order) to win any championship and things seldom align the same way to years in a row. In hockey however the conference finals featured the Cup winners from the last 4 years. Maybe not a dynasty, but the same teams seem to be the ones making the Cup run each year.

I could be worse. The Bruins could have Iggy out there instead of Jagr. Although I didn't think so at the time its obvious that the Bruins got the better playr.

Posted Sunday June 16, 2013, About: Would Mark Messier settle for AHL coaching gig?

Its simple its a conspiracy to give the Cup to the Bruins.

No seriously, its simple the ref lost site of the puck, he thought Rask had it smothered so he blew the whistle. Its unfortunate for the Hawks, but completely understandable.

They always look at the puck moving, goal scoring defenseman for this award. They seldom give it to a good solid stay at home defenseman.

You're expecting something relevant to the big story in hockey today? You must not have been following these threads that long.

It looked like Chicago was out of gas at the end of the game. Even with that it took a great shot by Paille to win it.

Posted Sunday June 16, 2013, About: Adam Oates: Sidney Crosby didn't have MVP season

As I said before since Sid missed a quarter of the season I didn't think he should be eligible. If you look at the plus/minus of the points leaders above Sid though it gets kind of interesting. St. Louis had 60 points and was even, Stamkos had 57 points and was minus 4, Ovie had 56 points and was a plus 2. Sid on the other hand had 56 points and was a plus 26.

Its certainly not the hockey town like say Phoenix or Fort Lauderdale is.

What do you expect Oates to say though. If Ovie isn't over easy then Oates is toast and I'm sure he knows what side his bread is buttered on.

Yeah, I guess it is. I'd turn you in but I wouldn't want to be a Benedict. . . . Arnold.

I would think it would be a dream come true. Just keep some cattle penned up out back and start butchering when he walks in the front door.

You're right its more obtuse than anything.

And the way I look at it is, maybe Renaissance (Sports and Entertainment) is the best for the NHL, but maybe only second- or third-best for Glendale."

Did Sherwood just admit that its not a good thing for the NHL to have a team in Phoenix?

Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Oates lauds 'easy, easy, easy' Ovi

Beat me to it.

We'll see how Ovie comes out next year, but he did seem to get better as the season went on.

Get him a date with Jenny Craig.

Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Source: Horton's injury painful and chronic

Hang on a second here. How can it be a "chronic" shoulder (whatever) when it first started bothering him when he fought Iggy a week ago? I thought chronic had to be long term.
