NHL Monday: Blackhawks cool off Stars

Here’s a more important question: Should he win the Hart?

2. Will Patrice Bergeron have any impact in Monday night’s game?

By the way, Hanowski now has as many goals as Jarome Iginla has with the Penguins. Seems like a fair trade.

Also, get a haircut, man!

Will Brendan Shanahan dish out any discipline to Edler for the play?

As for White, he received a five-minute major for elbowing, a five-minute major for fighting and a game misconduct. You could say he got the book thrown at him.

The NHL has postponed Monday’s game between the Boston Bruins and Ottawa Senators due to the ongoing situation at the Boston Marathon, where two bombs were detonated and at least two people were killed near the finish line of the 2013 race.

The league officially announced the postponement at 4:55 p.m., about two hours after the first explosion was reported near Copley Square. No postponement date has been announced.

Since this post was written, tonight’s game between the Bruins and Senators has been postponed due to the explosions at the Boston Marathon.

Bergeron stated on Monday morning that he feels confident about his ability to play. However, he and the team believe it’s best not to rush a return. Obviously, with the Bruins on the verge of clinching a playoff berth, Bergeron’s ability to contribute in the postseason is far more beneficial than at the end of the regular season.

Cullen has missed six games due to a lower-body injury. The Wild collected a 1-4-1 record over that span.

The 36-year-old forward participated in an optional skate at Xcel Energy Center on Sunday afternoon and was hoping to return against Calgary. During the practice, Cullen pushed himself by participating in battle drills with assistant coach Darby Hendrickson. He stated that he didn’t experience any issues and that he would determine his availability on Monday morning.

In the following days, the Maple Leafs stated that Lupul had not sustained a concussion and expressed that the organization was more concerned about whiplash. Ultimately, it was determined that their initial diagnosis was incorrect.

Lupul was able to return to practice on Friday but had not been cleared for contact. He last experienced concussion-like symptoms on Tuesday and has been able to skate in four consecutive days without any issue beginning on Thursday. Carlyle stated on Monday afternoon that the forward would be a game-time decision and would need to feel 110 percent in order to play.
