HOCKEY HISTORY
Retro Rangers: Bower and “Gump” Had Much in Common (Part 2 of 2)
Goaltenders Lorne “Gump” Worsley and Johnny Bower had a lot in common. Both made their NHL debuts with the New York Rangers in the 1950s, both have earned multiple Vezina Trophies, both are members of the NHL Hall of Fame and both played into their 40s and won four Stanley Cups during their long playing careers.

NHL 24 Fails to Deliver
The latest edition of EA Sports’ NHL hockey video game series – NHL 24 – is available now on PlayStation and Xbox. Last season’s release was quite disappointing, and our hope was that NHL 24 would represent a huge leap forward and take full advantage of next-generation console power. Unfortunately, it falls short and disappoints again this time, in some even more critical ways.
