Lightning Bolt Ahead Early in The Offseason
By Andrew Levengood (@bednarik602) In the 2012 offseason the only certain thing for the Tampa bay Lightning was that they had to acquire a goaltender, and before the draft or free agency started they sent backup goaltender Sebastian Caron, and two second round picks from this year’s draft and a third round choice in the [...]

Why People Don’t Want (Not Think) Zach Parise to Stay in New Jersey
By: Mike Luciano (@MikeLuci) Free agency is on the horizon and it’s old news that Devil’s captain and superstar Zach Parise is fronting the 2012 unrestricted free agent class.

From the outside looking in, it might seem like a no-brainer to take on all of those picks, but could it really be that simple? GM [...]

NHL Offseason: Taking a Look at the Flyers Salary Cap
By Tyler J. Altemose (@TJamesAltemose) With the July 1 free agency date quickly approaching, I thought it might be fun to look into the Flyers’ offseason salary cap situation. Being the obvious masochist that I am, I sat down and crunched some numbers. A bit of a disclaimer though—the offseason salary cap isn’t something [...]

The Exorcized Devils
By: Mike Luciano (@MikeLuci) I’ve certainly got some explaining to do. My New Jersey Devils made a remarkable run to the Stanley Cup Finals, and since the inception of their 2012 postseason campaign, I can probably count the number of pieces I’ve posted on the fingers of one hand. Let me say there is a [...]

NHL Draft: Marc Bergevin, Montreal Canadiens leave Pittsburgh as early winners
By Todd Cordell (@ToddCordell) With the 2012 NHL Entry Draft now in the past, it’s time to examine which team had the best draft in both addressing team needs and drafting the most talent.
