As we approach the midway point of the 2022-23 NHL season, we are starting to separate the contenders from the pretenders. As of today, the Bruins are the top dogs, sitting with 66 points, nine more points than the second-best mark (Hurricanes 57). Three teams have yet to cross the 30-point mark, as the Blue Jackets, Blackhawks, and Ducks find…

The Columbus Blue Jackets head to Chicago to take on the Blackhawks. It's a meeting between the worst team in the Western Conference and the worst team in the Eastern Conference. The Blue Jackets have ten wins and 22 points, which is seven points worse than the next biggest loser in the East. Philadelphia has 29 points and continues to distance…

Expect plenty of scoring, at least for the Dallas Stars, when they visit the Columbus Blue Jackets. The prolific Stars are favored on the NHL betting lines thanks to some lackluster defending from Columbus. Dallas is finishing its five-game road trip while the Blue Jackets are back at home following a disastrous three-game road swing of their…

Pacific Division rivals Vegas Golden Knights and the Calgary Flames will be facing off against each other Wednesday night. The Knights are currently occupying the top spot of the division with 59 points, while the Flames have 52 - three points back of the third place, thus highlighting the importance of this contest. With that said, it's a good…

The Winnipeg Jets roll into Calgary to take on the Flames. A week ago, this could have been a meeting of the two top teams in the West. After a 5-1 start to the season, it looked like losing Johnny "Hockey" Gaudreau was the best thing to ever happen to the franchise, but since that hot start, Calgary have lost seven in a row. Within that terrible…

The Columbus Blue Jackets pulled the biggest prize of NHL free agency this past summer. Superstar forward Johnny Gaudreau signed a massive seven-year contract to shockingly join Columbus in July. Many expected Gaudreau to move on from the Calgary Flames, but this was a surprise. The move has rejuvenated the Blue Jackets organization. Fans, staff,…

The San Jose Sharks and the Calgary Flames are miles and miles apart from each other in the standings. That being said, it's actually the Sharks who own the upper hand in the head-to-head matchup between these teams in the regular season. Calgary will look to snap their losing skid against the Sharks tonight, but will San Jose bite Johnny Hockey…

Well, well, well… if it isn't the Battle of Alberta! One of the most historic rivalries in the entire sport, a rematch of last year's Western Conference semifinals will be the talk of the town as the Edmonton Oilers go to war against the Calgary Flames. let's take an exclusive look at our NHL odds series where our Oilers-Flames prediction and pick…

1. Mike Sullivan betrayed a weakness when he allowed himself to be distracted by heckling fans. A losing streak will do that to a losing coach. 2. Suggestions that the Maple Leafs' high command should dump Sheldon Keefe are dumb and dumber. (See Damien Cox below.) 3. Big money dulls motivation. Exhibit A: Jonathan Huberdeau's meh efforts in…

The Pittsburgh Penguins and Calgary Flames headline this Tuesday's slate. Both the Penguins and Flames enter play 4 - 1. As the premier team in the East, it's no surprise that Pittsburgh has opened the season with such a fantastic record. They have been a top team for quite some time now. They are like a bad habit when it comes to the Eastern…

Prediction: The kind of hideous franchise melt down we are now witnessing in Calgary - and have also experienced in Edmonton in the past - will not hammer this edition of the Oilers. I say this even as veteran hockey writer Stan Fischler predicts McDavid will not stick around in Edmonton. "If Johnny Hockey can leave the sweet city of Calgary and…

Johnny Gaudreau is not a big man, at 5ft 9ins and 175 pounds. But he could be the biggest name available when the NHL free-agent market opens on Wednesday. Gaudreau is coming off the best season of his career, one in which he put up 115 points (40 goals) in 82 games. He had 14 more points in 12 playoff games for the Calgary Flames. Gaudreau's last…

I've been a capper since my love for sports met my proficiency with numbers and math. The NFL and NCAAF have always been my first loves, followed by the NHL. Although I prefer sports that involve hitting people, I still love capping MLB, soccer, tennis, and even some esports. Living in Florida has its perks like year-round sports of any kind. We're…
