Kessel, Lupul Leading Maple Leafs’ Offence Isn’t all Good
By Lukas Hardonk (@LukasHardonk) A four-goal performance on Thursday evening was nothing new for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Stars Go Out With a Bang
By Mike Luciano (@MikeLuci) Talk about a lengthy layoff. If the Hockey Guys was a hockey team and its writing staff comprised of its roster, where written posts were the equivalent of goals and points, I’d be that one inconsistent player everybody scratches their head over.

Pittsburgh Penguins Can Improve Short-Term Problems With a Few New Years Resolutions
By Joe Depto (@PensDeptoTFP) To say 2011 was an exhausting calendar year for the Pittsburgh Penguins would be an arduous understatement.
