With the announcement yesterday that Vincent Lecavalier – at one time not so long ago considered one of the biggest stars in the league – is officially hanging up his skates after a somewhat resurgent half-season with the Kings, what better way for us to pay tribute than by ranking the best jerseys he wore over […]
2016 has been a brutal year for iconic individuals passing on from this life. First, Death came for the music industry, taking David Bowie and Prince, and then set its sights on sports, taking Muhammad Ali a few days ago, and now today – Mr Hockey himself – Gordie Howe. Waking up to that news […]
Ed. Note: Because we’re doing the best and worst logo in All-Star Game history, the Top 5 is temporarily a Top 4, and styled slightly different accordingly.)

Seeing as how the shins are about 10% up the human body, it’s accurate to say that we’re now shins-deep into the new 2014-15 NHL season. Sure, “shins-deep” is a little (if ever) used expression but it’s definitely more accurate. Knees-deep is too deep. Balls-deep is just uncouth for this site. We’re not in over our heads either.
