  • Blackhawks Hall of Fame Goaltender Tony Esposito Dies at 78
    Blackhawks Hall of Fame goaltender Tony Esposito dies at 78 CHICAGO — Tony Esposito, the pioneering Hall of Fame goaltender who played almost his entire 16-year career with the Chicago Blackhawks, has died following a brief battle with pancreatic cancer, the team announced Tuesday. He was 78. Esposito also worked six years in Tampa with his brother Phil, the former Lightning general manager who helped bring hockey to the area. Tony Esposito played a key role in helping shape the franchise in those first few years, especially his input on trades, free agents and drafts. The Lightning released a statement about Tony Esposito’s value to the team: “The entire Tampa Bay Lightning organization is terribly saddened to hear of the passing of Tony Esposito today just weeks after his diagnosis. Tony was a founding, cornerstone member of the Lightning family who was a fixture at games and, along with his brother Phil, played an integral role in laying the groundwork for a successful franchise in the Sunshine State when many thought it was impossible. His role cannot be understated. “Tony was a true legend on the ice and off of it. We extend our deepest sympathies to his wife, Marilyn, his family, friends and all of those he touched in the hockey community.” Esposito debuted with Montreal during the 1968-69 season and appeared in 13 games. He was then left unprotected with the Canadiens deep in goalies and taken by the Blackhawks in an intraleague draft for $25,000, an investment that paid immediate dividends for a team that finished last in its division.

  • A Vezina Winner
    RASKY BUSINESS THE SKILLS BEHIND A VEZINA WINNER Tuukka Rask ensured his place in goaltending history by winning the Vezina Trophy in 2013-14, and is carving out a career that could arguably land him in conversations among the all-time greats. Rask has posted a .928 save percentage through parts of seven NHL seasons with the Boston Bruins. That is the best career number of any goalie to play more than 100 games, six points higher than the .922 that made Dominik Hasek a first-ballot Hall of Famer, and eight better than New York Rangers star Henrik Lundqvist, who is heralded as the most consistent, if not also the best, of his generation. So is Rask better than Hasek and Lundqvist?

  • EA Sports NHL 12 Season Simulation Predicts Penguins Will Become Stanley Cup Champions in 2012
    EA Sports NHL 12 Season Simulation Predicts Penguins Will Become Stanley Cup Champions in 2012 REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- A simulation run by EA SPORTS™NHL ® 12 predicts that Sidney Crosby, despite missing almost 17 games during the regular season, will lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to a second place finish in the Eastern Conference standings (100 points) and their fourth Stanley Cup® Championship. Crosby will be awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as the Penguins take home the Stanley Cup in a decisive 4-2 series win against a resurgent Chicago Blackhawks team. The Vancouver Canucks will capture the Presidents' Trophy in back-to-back years with 114 points during the regular season. The EA SPORTS NHL franchise has a history of successful simulation predictions, accurately selecting: the Chicago Blackhawks as the 2010 Stanley Cup® champions; the Vancouver Canucks® as the 2011 Presidents' Trophy winner; and the 2011 Stanley Cup Final matchup of the Boston Bruins and Vancouver Canucks. According to the simulation, last year's Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins will be unable to claim back-to-back glory as the new-look Philadelphia Flyers will eliminate the former champions during the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs in five games. The Vancouver Canucks will lose in the Western Conference Final to the Chicago Blackhawks in seven games, adding fuel to the rivalry that has gripped the two cities in recent years. Other notable team storylines the simulation predicted for the 2011-2012 NHL season are as follows: ● The Toronto Maple Leafs will squeak out an eighth place finish in the Eastern Conference, making the Playoffs for the first time in seven NHL 12 Season Sim (Photo: Business Wire) seasons ● The Minnesota Wild will finish eighth in the Western Conference and will make the Playoffs for the first time since 2008 ● The Tampa Bay Lightning will once again miss out on the Stanley Cup Final; eliminated by the Penguins in a seven game Eastern Conference Final Several individual players also stood out in the NHL® 12 simulation.
