  Los Angeles Times | Feb 16, 08 5:59 AM CST

  Dallas Morning News | Feb 6, 08 5:08 AM CST
  
  (Newser) - Last night's game might have been mostly boring (no shots for the first seven minutes, then no goals after the first two periods) and relatively tame (a measly six penalties), but the Stars are happy with their 3-2 shootout victory, the Dallas Morning News reports. Captain Brenden Morrow scored in the sixth round to lift his team past Vancouver. In other hockey action: More »

  Edmonton Journal | Feb 5, 08 4:57 AM CST
  
  (Newser) - The Oilers' 5-0 trouncing of the Flames last night was anything but pretty, writes the Edmonton Journal.

  Associated Press | Jan 19, 08 6:15 AM CST

Calgary goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff had 29 saves in regulation, reports the Associated Press. Elsewhere in the NHL: More »

- Another Loss for Ottawa, With New Injury Blow
  
  Ottawa Citizen | Jan 14, 08 4:21 AM CST
  
  (Newser) - Ottawa's 3-1 loss to the Islanders seemed mostly secondary last night, in light of the recent loss of All-Star Dany Heatley and a fresh injury for Jason Spezza. Though Spezza remained in the game after being hit, he left for the locker room soon after, and his prognosis isn't clear, reports the Ottawa Citizen . Elsewhere in the NHL: More »
