The Steven Stamkos show came to the centre of hockey's universe on Wednesday night as Tampa Bay's young star once again showed what many have been talking about in this early stage of the NHL season. Already leading the team in goals with 15 in 21 games, he's making quite the name for himself with 24 points so far in the season and a number of goals replayed nightly on the major sports channels of...
Quick update on the status of Pascal Leclaire. There is no word on how severe the injury is but according to Brent Wallace, Mike Brodeur has been recalled on an emergency basis to replace Pascal. Should know more about how severe the injury is after this morning's skate. Alfredsson is not skating this morning but Volchenkov is out there with his teammates. MIKE FISHER Even as recently as a month ago...
Former Detroit Red Wings star is executive director of the Canadian Olympic hockey men's team, which can be a blessing or a curse in a nation with high expectations for the Vancouver Games. Steve Yzerman has the best and worst job in sports.
A lazy Sunday. A perfect opportunity to post photos from readers. First up is Andrew Rupprect from Section C-3 who spotted a bizarre jersey foul: -Dick Tarnstrom was a bit of a sniper from the blue line but... this is a little out of line. -Kelli Zappas spotted Greenman at last week's game against the Bruins: -Katherine Peterlin had the good fortune of being at the stellar Bruins-Penguins game and...
The new edition of "Wingspan," all about Steve Yzerman and his recent induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame, debuts at 6:30 p.m. tonight on FSD, with a replay at 11 -- before and after the Red Wings-Florida game.

from Mike Stone at The Stoney Express at Mlive, Look, there is no doubt Sergei Fedorov was one of the greatest players to ever play for the Red Wings. I also believe there were people who treated him differently and did not give him enough credit because he was Russian. But, please Sergei, let’s not revise history here. You were also very jealous of people like Steve Yzerman and Brendan Shanahan....

When Brendan Shanahan made his retirement official Tuesday, he went into the NHL history books No. 11 in all-time goals (656) and No. 23 in all-time points (1,354) – credentials usually associated...
The Hockey Hall of Fame swelled both in membership and prestige this week with some of the more worthier inductees to have ever laced up skates, that is, Steve Yzerman and some other dudes. Judging from the coverage and the noticeably amped up production value, the shrine on Front Street and the ceremony surrounding [...]
It’s time for me to care about hockey again! As you may have heard this week, new members were inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame (you can be forgiven if you didn’t – after all, it turned into another ridiculous edition of the Gretzky Show.) Brian Leetch, Luc Robitaille, Brett Hull, Lou Lamoriello, and [...]
Craig Custance came up with a good idea. He ranked the NHL offices in terms of organ-I-zational depth. Number 1 shocked me. No, not really. 1. Detroit Red Wings: I think it’s hard for any organization to compete with the Red Wings when it comes to executives at the top. You have the architect of it all in senior vice president Jim Devellano, arguably the best GM in the game in Ken Holland, Team...

If you don't get the NFL Network and the Bears-49ers game, the Red Wings-Canucks (7:30, Fox Sports Detroit) is the best thing tonight on free TV -- well, basic cable is kind of free.
