Photo by Bruce Bennett/ The Devils look ok out there! Today’s episode focuses on the first two games against the Boston Bruins. The game against the New York Rangers will be included in the next episode and we will be most likely moving to the biweekly format again in order to account for all of these clustered games with relevancy.

Sharks at Blues Game Preview: Blues bounce back, still need to make adjustments
Photo by Joe Puetz/NHLI via The Blues had to fight it out for their 5-4 win over San Jose. You could be forgiven for being shocked at Monday evening’s win over the San Jose Sharks.

It is even stranger that the Stars and the National Hockey League are about to cram the 2020-2021 season exclusively in the year 2021.
