January 27, 2019 Wayne Fish

How much change will Fletcher make as season winds down?

January 22, 2019 Wayne Fish

While this season doesn’t look like it will turn out quite as badly as the franchise’s worst in 2006-07, there are some similarities. In both campaigns, the general manager and coaching positions changed hands. Both […]

If Fletcher can repeat Minnesota goaltending miracle, that would be a good start

December 8, 2018 Wayne Fish

Hextall’s ego and control may have got the best of him
