The site contains constantly updated information about the players, teams, and sports personalities. Some current articles include the "NHL Year in Review," "Stretching Techniques" and "Updates about the 2000 Season Draft."
The links on NHL.com are easy to find and take you directly to where you want to go. This is a no-nonsense, simple, easy to use website with good advertisements and a great design which makes it nice to look at and fun to surf.
The "Line-ups" link will tell you everything you need to know about players, coaches, teams, and officials. It includes profiles of all NHL players, including Most Valuable Players, Trophy Winners, Goalies and even Linesmen. You can learn the statistics about your favourite players and impress your friends with your trivia knowledge.
