Although the team sits just five points out of a wild-card […]

“It must be a joke around the league: You score two goals against the Buffalo Sabres and you’re going to win the hockey game,” said a disgruntled Evander Kane in late November. He was right. At the time, the team was averaging just 1.82 goals per game, worst in the league by far. Kane made these comments […]
