Welcome to Light the Lamp Hockey


Light the Lamp Hockey Blog

About us



Dustin and I are passionate hockey fans at heart. If you’re like us: you eat, sleep, and breathe hockey. The birth of this blog came in the form of one realization we both came to without really having to think about it. The basis of a lot of our discussion amongst one another and friends revolves around the greatest sport on earth. We have knowledge and opinions on every day happenings within the National Hockey League, and there’s nothing we love more than talking about it.


Our goal is to be a portal to everything hockey. From our in depth analysis and personal perspective on current events, to our lengthy (and growing) list of favorite links, we want the old and new hockey fans to find everything they need in one place.


What you’ll find


Our blog is very much still in progress with daily work and ideas being implemented to our site.


Currently on the main page you’ll find our most recent blog posts. As it being just the two of us who have our own full time jobs and full time schedules it would be impossible for us to cover every single aspect of this great game. We will, however, be working our hardest to get as much content and insight on the league and all that encompasses it. This is what we love to do, and our dream job without question lies within the realm of hockey. We never have, and never will claim to be know-it-alls’ when it comes to hockey, as our minds and ears are open to anyone who loves the game. We realize that without great websites and writers out there our knowledge would significantly less than what it is. We want to pay homage to the great sites, businesses, personnel, players, and writers by directly linking them on our main page and encouraging our readers to take a look.


Along the top bar we currently have ‘NHL TEAMS’. This section contains all of the NHL teams’ most important sites. From websites to rosters, schedules, twitters, facebooks, and ticket information. We plan on adding more content here in the near future.


Coming soon on the top bar will also be a 'Media' button. This will host videos, podcasts, pictures, and more. We will work diligently to have this feature available as soon as possible.


The right side of our page contains an RSS feed of current headlines provided by FantasyHockey.com. We have direct links to NHL live scores, player stats, team stats, league leaders, and standings provided by NHL.com.  We also have a live twitter feed, and a list of the top leagues around the world. In the ‘NHL Links’ list you’ll find the top hockey sites out there from every aspect of the game. Salary cap information, future prospects, player stats and bios, the NHLPA’s official site, and of course the top two main sites in NHL.com and TSN.ca.


Follow us


Also at the top right, you’ll see icons for twitter, facebook, tumblr, and tiny chat. Follow us anywhere, any time. Although it’s currently viewable in mobile form, we are hard at work to provide a mobile version of our site as well.

  2. I really like this website. I like the idea of highlighting one team at a time, and also learning odds and ends in the hockey world all in one place.
