Lack of Information

One of the things I normally love about the NHL is that you don’t have to pay attention to last minute news like the NBA. That hasn’t been the case since the restart. It’s been really tough to find quality information regarding starting goalies and team lines at even-strength and the power play. Unfortunately Twitter is probably the best option, so you’ll have to do some detective work to get the last-minute information.

Upsets Aplenty
