NHL

The Senators style has allowed them to stay in games without sacrificing much in the way of offense as they’ve come back from two-goal deficits at least once in the first and second round. But now, since the NHL is very much a copycat league, does this success mean the return of the trap as a mainstream game-long strategy?

The Nashville Predators scored four goals in the third period to claim Game 6 and advance to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time in franchise history.

The final four teams have started play in the Conference Finals and though there are two very different styles of play in both series, the result is the same through two games.

The Conference Finals are set to begin, as the Nashville Predators are joined by the Ottawa Senators, Pittsburgh Penguins and Anaheim Ducks as the final four teams playing for the Stanley Cup.

When they Flyers make their selection in this June’s draft, they will be adding to an already deep center pool.

The first of the final four teams playing for the Stanley Cup is now known. The Nashville Predators are comfortably waiting for their opponent in the Western Conference Finals. In the meantime, two Game 6s in the Eastern Conference and the first Game 7 in the other West series are on the schedule for the rest of the six teams still alive in the playoffs.

The Penguins and Predators are one win away from advancing to the Conference Finals while four other teams are deadlocked in even series through four games.

Sam Hinkie has impacted Philly Sports in a way that will have us thanking him for generations.

With another top prospect on the way with the second overall pick at this year’s draft, we look at the Flyers impressive draft haul from last year.
