Blame Corey Perry for the Ducks’ success
Posted by Rob Boudreau Categories: Athletes, Editorial, NHL
The plight of the Anaheim Ducks continues. With a 4-7-2 record and a home in the basement of the Western Conference standings, the Ducks’ shortcomings are starting to become more significant. Every missed hit; every lost race; every battle in the corner is taking its toll on the former “Mighty” ones. They are also the only team to have lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs this season, and that was a 6-3 defeat that the Leafs basically never had in doubt. It takes a special kind of team to have that happen so far this season, and clearly the Ducks are a special kind of team.

Chris Osgood put another 29 saves onto his resume as his surging Detroit Red Wings knocked off the slumping Boston Bruins 2-0. These denials came as a part of his 394th career victory. Added to these stats is the fact that those saves added up to his 50th career shutout, a milestone that only 22 others in the NHL have achieved. Osgood’s play of late has been somewhat below what is expected of him, as the Red Wings find themselves in a four-way tie for 8th place in the Western Conference, but he was in top form during Tuesday night’s victory.

Plan the parade route. The Toronto Maple Leafs have five points in their last four games, bringing their season total to a tremendous six. At this pace, they’ll be competing for 14th place in the Eastern Conference in a just a couple short weeks. With a 1-7-4 record this far into the season, the current Leafs find themselves mulling through the worst start in Toronto’s long history. There are many fans in Toronto who cannot remember – or were not alive for – the Leafs’ last Stanley Cup victory in 1967, and it already seems like 2009-10 is not the year of redemption.

The state of Arizona is not short on competition for the sports dollar, which doesn’t help a team like the Phoenix Coyotes, whose chilly brand of entertainment isn’t what most fans in the desert care for. Sharing Glendale with the Coyotes are the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals. Up the road in the city of Phoenix play the NBA’s Suns, WNBA’s Mercury, and, less straining on the Coyotes woes, MLB’s Arizona Diamondbacks. However, to add baseball’s imprint on the Coyotes revenues is the fact that 14 MLB teams bring in their Spring Training clubs in March for the Arizona Cactus Leagues. Throw college football, NASCAR, and golf into the mix throughout the year and that doesn’t leave a lot of room for the failing Coyotes to continue operating.

The New York Islanders’ only positive: Andy Sutton
Posted by Rob Boudreau Categories: Athletes, Editorial, NHL
How does he do it? Going into Wednesday night’s action, New York Islanders defenseman Andy Sutton leads his team in plus/minus with a whopping +2 rating. Perhaps more impressive is the fact that he’s the only one on the Islanders on the positive side of zero. He’s outshining teammates like veterans Doug Weight (-2) and Mark Streit (-6), and he’s even soaring ahead of OHL scoring phenom John Tavares, who sits at an uncomfortable -6.

Ryan Malone Scores Twice in Penguins Victory
Posted by Milo Taibi Categories: Athletes, NHL, Scoreboard
In Game Five of the 2008 NHL Conference Finals between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Philadelphia Flyers, Ryan Malone had the game of his life. The 28 year old left winger scored in the 1st and 2nd period, and had an assist in the 6-0 rout of the Flyers.
“Never, never would have thought it,” Ryan Malone said of playing for the Stanley Cup in the next round of the playoffs. “I don’t think I realized until my junior year of college (at St. Cloud State) I would have a chance to play pro hockey. … It’s pretty special, pretty special and I definitely feel privileged.”

Also contributing to the Pittsburgh Penguins victory was Marion Hossa who scored a goal, as well as Evgeni Malkov and Max Talbot, each scoring goals. Marc-Andre Fleury was top notch in the winning effort, saving 26 of 27 attempted shots.
“I can’t wait for about 10 days, to start this thing (the playoffs),” said Max Talbot. “It’s good that it’s all (division) games like this until the end of the season. Every little play can change the game and that’s playoff hockey, and that’s what we’re in right now.”
