Trying to figure out a way to inspire the Capitals three seasons ago, Trotz turned to Jamie Clark, who failed to reach the top of Mount Everest twice but accomplished the feat in 1997 and again in 2010. “I think that applies to his individual experience, it applies to teams. You’re not going to go […]
“We’re ready going into tonight’s game and start the right way for sure,” Canadiens forward Josh Anderson said.

“Our work ethic was there, our compete was there, our minds weren’t there,” Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. “Sometimes it’s enticing, you want to try to thread something, you see an open guy, but you’ve got to be disciplined and know that they’ve got great defensive players and keep everything to the outside,” defenseman Ryan […]
Tampa Bay converted on one of its two power plays with Brayden Point scoring at 6-on-4 with 54 seconds remaining. It was good from a confidence side that you get to your game and you can have success. Although New York lost to Tampa Bay in six games in the Eastern Conference Final last season, […]
The forward sustained a concussion when he was checked by Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Second Round on June 2. “Yesterday was a bit shorter, today was a bit longer,” Ducharme said of Evans’ solo skates.

The Vegas Golden Knights forward spent his first 10 NHL seasons with the Canadiens, from 2008-09 to 2017-18, and was captain during his final three seasons. We had two emotional series, and I’m assuming this will be the same against a big, strong team that we haven’t played yet. My kids were younger in Montreal […]

And then just in general, as a person, he’s a guy I look up to in all aspects of life and the way he carries himself, the way he treats people. The respect he has, as players, we truly appreciate and obviously you want to go out there and play hard for a coach who […]
He said he’s not interested in testing the free agency market, though he declined to specify how many more seasons he might want to play, citing the unknowns of his health situation. “I’m not going to play for anybody else than the Bruins,” Rask said.

The St. “It’s pretty impressive,” said defenseman Alex Pietrangelo, who signed with the Golden Knights as an unrestricted free agent Oct. “I don’t think there was a person in the hockey world when we were down 2-0 that would that we would finish this off in six at home tonight,” DeBoer said. The Golden Knights […]

The Avalanche are hoping to get more out of center Nathan MacKinnon, who has no points in his past three games and one assist in his past four after scoring two goals and an assist in Game 1, a 7-1 Colorado win. The New York Islanders pride themselves on being a four-line team that gets […]
Although coach Bruce Cassidy said there was a possibility that Miller could have come back had Boston pushed New York to Game 7, he missed the entire series against the Islanders and the Bruins missed his presence. But other than the third period of Game 5, Cassidy stuck with Rask, the goalie he trusted most, […]
On Sunday, under a cloudless sky, Lafleur welcomed the Stanley Cup to his home in the suburbs west of Montreal, and never had hockey’s holy grail meant more to him. Every three weeks since January, the 69-year-old Canadiens legend has arrived at a Montreal hospital for a round of cancer treatment, 10 minutes of chemotherapy […]
“They have assimilated with this group very, very well,” New York coach Barry Trotz said.
