Ovechkin scores his 700th. Interesting fact. Ovi is 34, Gretzky was 29 when he scored his 700th.
Bruins are on a roll and so is Bergeon. |

Yes they are, and will likely continue...although they got a wee bit of a spanking from Vancouver last night.

How about the Zamboni driver, Ayers, getting the call to enter the Carolina/Toronto game after Carolina lost both their goalies to injury during the game? He gave up 2 goals on his first two shots and then shut down the Maple Leafs. Amazing. |

Ayers, the Zamboni driver that came in mid-game as goalie to win the game for Carolina, has donated that hockey stick to the Hockey Hall of Fame. What a great move. He's now in the HHOF! I've been there a few times. It's downtown Toronto just a 5 minute walk to the Skydome (Rogers Center), the CN Tower, and a bunch of other big city highlights.
What hockey story lines are you following this week? |

For the real hockey fans, please forgive my intrusion, but once again I'm very happy for the VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS' current run of 8 consecutive wins.
(for some reason my computer just automatically put that into all caps) I'm not really a hockey fan per se but I did just re-watch "Miracle" so maybe that got me fired up! Best, PJ

Even if you don't watch much hockey start following the Vegas box scores and that may lead to more tv game viewing. |

Unfortunately we cut the cable several years ago so I don’t have the opportunity to watch any games but I sure do love to read about their wins in the newspaper! Now if only they weren’t so expensive to see in person... Thanks again PJ

Keep reading about the Golden Knights. When you're at it, read about Connor McDavid (Oilers) as he's the top player of his generation, just like Sidney Crosby was in his generation (and is still playing as a top 5 Player in the league).

Geez, hard to believe we're referring to "Sid the Kid" being a generational player. Ain't it the truth! How time flies, Dru! YIKES

I mentioned yesterday to watch out for McDavid and coincidentally he got 5 points last night, as did Draisaitl. I hope Edmonton can make the playoffs. I want to watch those two in Spring. |

I've been to several Edmonton games and their fans are...well...fantatsic! Best ice in the NHL? I think the players would say so. Oilers always seem to step up their game at playoff time. Should be exciting. Right around the corner. One of the best days is the final Sunday of the season to see the matchups. Hockey playoffs are the best.

Hush, Dru. Sid still has a lot of gas left in the tank. Technically Jaromir Jagr still hasn't retired either.

I recall a few years ago watching the end of a game on tv. Last game of the season for the Flyers and the Islanders (I hope I got those teams correct). It was fantastic - the winning team goes to the playoffs and the loser doesn't. Just like a single game playoff. Game goes to a shootout! What a way to decide the fate of those teams. I think the Islanders won. Does anyone remember this and can confirm? Quote:
