More From National Hockey Now:

Florida: Paul Maurice is furious that the Florida Panthers continue to lose, but he knows he’s part of the problem.

Detroit: The Detroit Red Wings aren’t playing well lately. But neither are a lot of teams in the Eastern Conference, which is keeping them alive in the playoff chase.

Pittsburgh: There’s a lot happening with the Pittsburgh Penguins, and not much of it is good. Dan Kingerski gives his thoughts on all of it.

Chicago: The goaltending situation isn’t a perfect one for the Chicago Blackhawks, but it’s not something they need to fix immediately, either.

San Jose: After years of living in the NHL cellar, there’s real hope within the locker room of the San Jose Sharks.
