The San Jose Sharks have made a surprise forward swap this morning, sending Rourke Chartier down to the San Jose Barracuda and recalling Dylan Gambrell from the ‘Cuda to take his place. The choice to flip their young centers before tonight’s tilt against the St. Louis Blues seems to be an effort to give each of them a much needed spark. Chartier has […]
Being a hockey writer/fan hybrid is really difficult sometimes. Every now and then, a moment or event comes along where, even though you need to be impartial and take all sides into consideration, your mind is blurred by the personal bias your mind has spent a lifetime building.

The race to the Stanley Cup has begun, and for Canucks fans it’ll be one spent sitting in the stands and placing bets on the winners. But even though the hometown club has a date with the driving range, there’s no reason why you can’t join in on the fun by jumping on a playoff […]
