Barry Trotz's four seasons with Islanders.. 1. Jack Adams 2. Final four loss to eventual Cup champ 3. Final four loss to eventual Cup champ 4. 13-game road trip, 50 games in 99 days to end season ...there has to be more to his canning than meets the eye.

The NHL is "monitoring" the Jets. Meanwhile, the Coyotes could mail a ransom note to Gary Bettman telling him they kidnapped his puppy, and he'd give them another year to figure things out.

Sorry, hockey, but I don't trust you anymore. Even if you're sorry for failing Kyle Beach, I don't even trust you to get it right going forward. Column:

LOL at the forced hot takes trying to downgrade Gretzky. He won his 10 scoring titles by an AVERAGE of 49 points. He won it by 70 or more points SIX times. He is the most dominant team-sport athlete in history, period.

If Wayne Gretzky is the best player of all time, who is the second best player, in your opinion?

Mikko Rantanen has 48 goals and 111 points in his past 82 games. It's wild to think he's underrated even just as a *star* when he's actually, um, a superstar

To the people tweeting racist crap about P.K. Subban: you are human garbage, living in the wrong millennium.
