Hocky Talk week3

Nick Russ here with your NHL update. Pittsburgh has vaulted into 2nd in the Atlantic. Going on a 3 game win streak and anchored by point and assist leader Evgeni Malkin. The Penguins scored wins over a decent St.Louis and the Islanders and along with Edmonton. Tomorrow night they have a rematch over last years Stanley Cup final at Detroit. Then they come home for a game against rival Philadelphia and against the Sabers.
Buffalo is locked with a battle with Boston for the Northeast lead. They helped their cause by winning against Washington and New Jersey. But then they had a hic-up against Atlanta and Boston. Buffalo is near the top scoring about 3 goals per game. They may have lost against Boston earlier but latter this month they face the Bruins 2 more times. They have St. Louis and Columbus at home then they visit the Penguins.
Chicago has caught fire winning their last 4 games and leading the league with nearly 4 goals per game. The Hawks go for their fifth win against Boston at home where they have won most of their games. They will then host St. Louis and San Jose. They are now only two games behind Detroit. 
The Redwings are coming off of two impressive victories against New Jersey and Vancouver. The defending stanley cup champs face Pittsburgh tomorrow in a Stanley Cup rematch before heading to Florida to play Tampa Bay and Florida.
Until next time Hocky fans
