Sutter making changes for Game 3 against Sharks.

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Lost in the drama which ended Game 2 in the Sharks-Kings series -- with Los Angeles scoring twice in the final two minutes to steal a 4-3 win -- was a neat little story about a player trying to pick himself off the scrap heap. ...

MONTREAL -- The playoff exit was still a little too raw for the players in a quiet Montreal Canadiens dressing room to appreciate what they accomplished this season. From last place in the Eastern Conference a year ago to Northeast Division champs...

OTTAWA -- Truth is, Jean-Gabriel Pageau wasn't a lock to make the Binghamton Senators this season, let alone imagine he'd be scoring a hat trick in the NHL playoffs. "We talked about sending him back to junior as an overager at the start of the ye...

OTTAWA -- The spotlight on this night should have been squarely on Jean-Gabriel Pageau, an unheralded product from just across the river, whose hat trick propelled the Ottawa Senators to a full-value cream job of the Montreal Canadiens. Instead, a...

There's no other way to put it: The Northeast Division is a train wreck with the playoffs just around the corner. That may end up meaning nothing once the second season begins, but I doubt the way the Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Map...

TORONTO -- The New York Islanders open a five-game trip here Thursday night to close out their regular season with much still at stake. Seventh in the East to begin the day, three points ahead of the danger zone and just one point behind the Ottaw...

The Maple Leafs and Canadiens last met in the playoffs in 1979. If the two teams meet this year, writes Pierre LeBrun, it would be hockey fandemonium.

The Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday signed goaltender Peter Budaj to a two-year contract extension.

In the end, they circled back, as the whole hockey world knew they would. The standoff that began months ago came down to one last hour of dramatic back and forth. The Vancouver Canucks lowered their demands in a Roberto Luongo deal in the final 6...

Los Angeles Kings veteran defenseman Willie Mitchell will not play this season, a source told ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun.
