A matinee game, 3:00 start, on Halloween in Tampa. Devils invade the St Pete Times Forum on Saturday afternoon and kids, under 12 in costume, see professional hockey for free.

In the previous game, in Tampa, the Neh Jersey Devils tied the game and won in a shoot-out. The Devils (7-4-0)... 

The Ottawa Senators showed little hospitality when they hosted the Tampa Bay Lightning on Oct.15th. The Senators scored 7 goals on way to trouncing the traveling team.

Vinnie Lecavalier scored against Buffalo on Saturday and hit the crossbar in the shoot...

They are going to have to score early and often.  The shots and chances... 

The Blues return home to host the Minnesota Wild tonight. The Wild are coming off a 3-2 shootout win in Colorado. St. Louis is coming off a disappointing 3 game road trip including a 5-1 embarassment at the hands of Pittsburgh. The key to tonight’s game is going to be the first 10 minutes. Whoever comes out the gate the fastest should have the upper hand. Both teams have been sluggish at the...
