Post image for 2010 Atlantic Division Preview: Blogger Roundtable

Remember last season when two of these teams fought it out for 65 minutes on the last day of the regular season for a playoff spot? Something tells me both the Rangers and Flyers are going to shoot for a little more wiggle room this year. On that note, I’m sure the Penguins would like [...]

In the early 2000’s, a key concern of the National Hockey League was the number of goals being scored, which reached a low of 2.3 goals per game in the 2001-02 and 2003-04 seasons. With a new season about to begin, it seems like a good time to review goal scoring over a longer-term period. [...]
