Report: Eric Staal probably won’t waive his no-trade clause

The Carolina Hurricanes are one of the worst teams in the NHL and as a result are one of the clubs who are definitively sellers this season. One name which has popped up a few times in various trade rumors is captain Eric Staal, but Staal’s no-trade clause makes even the most solid of rumors […]

Video: Dustin Byfuglien destroys two Kings in the opening minute

Dustin Byfuglien is a frightening man. In the opening minute of action between the Kings and Jets, Byfuglien knocked Drew Doughty off the puck before hoisting Anze Kopitar off of the ice with his stick and into the boards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ri2dG1j9rjU Byfuglien earned a two-minute penalty for hooking on the Kopitar hit. Other angles revealed the […]

Matt Cooke cross-checks Shea Weber in the face

Old Matt Cooke appeared on Saturday night when he cross-checked Shea Weber in the face after exchanging words with the defenseman. The two men went to cross-check each other, but Cooke’s stick elevated and caught Weber directly in the face. Ouch. Weber wasn’t too happy and instantly dropped the mitts. All Cooke could do was […]

NHL Network had some odd backgrounds for Crosby and Price

The NHL Network had a pretty funny blunder when they were previewing the upcoming game between the Penguins and the Canadiens. They featured Sidney Crosby and Carey Price, but obviously someone forgot to change the backgrounds behind the players. Now we know what it’d look like if Crosby was on the Flyers and Price was […]

GIF: Ref injured trying to jump over David Clarkson

NHL official Dean Morton was forced to leave the game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Columbus Blue Jackets after a nasty collision with David Clarkson. Morton tried to leap over Clarkson to avoid the collision, but it resulted in the official flipping over Clarkson and landing hard on his side/back. Reports have stated […]

NHL’s biggest surprises through the first half of 2014-15

The first half of the 2014-15 season is roughly in the books. Due to the craziness that is the NHL schedule, some teams still haven’t played their 41st game of the season while others are a few games deep into the second half. Since there isn’t an official midway point, we’ve decided now is as good […]

Devils release some fun stats about Jaromir Jagr’s hat trick

Jaromir Jagr recorded the 15th hat trick of his storied career when the New Jersey Devils took on the Philadelphia Flyers on January 3rd. As with any hat trick, fans tossed their hats on to the ice which caused a short stoppage in play. Do you wonder how many hats landed on the ice? What […]

Photo: The Rangers apparently scored 999 goals on the Kings

Here’s a funny goof courtesy of the scoreboard inside the Staples Center. Roughly halfway through the first period between the Kings and Rangers, the scoreboard glitched and displayed that the Rangers were leading by a score of 999 to two. Remarkably, the Rangers only required five shots to score all 999 goals. Pretty impressive. The Rangers […]

Video: Vancouver Canucks honor Roberto Luongo

Roberto Luongo returned to Vancouver for the first time since the Canucks traded him to the Florida Panthers back in March of 2014. Though you could argue that the Canucks treated Luongo fairly poorly during the final years of his tenure, the team did a fantastic job of honoring him for his eight years of […]

Video: Barry Trotz takes a stick to the head

Coaching in the National Hockey League can be a dangerous job. Just ask Barry Trotz who took a stick to the head during the Capitals’ game against the Philadelphia Flyers. Trotz was bloodied by the stick which appeared to catch him between the eyebrows. Don’t be surprised if Trotz makes Marcus Johansson, the owner of […]

Blues are comfortable carrying three goaltenders for now

The St. Louis Blues found themselves in a difficult position when Brian Elliott returned from injury. The team had recently signed Martin Brodeur to a one-year contract due to the assumption that Elliott would be out for a decent chunk of time and that Jake Allen wouldn’t be able to hold down the fort on […]

Photo: MLB’s Angel Stadium pays tribute to Teemu Selanne

As the Anaheim Ducks prepare to honor Teemu Selanne on a special Teemu Tribute Night on January 11th, fond memories and photos are already flooding in from fans through social media. Selanne’s impact was felt not only in the NHL, but across the cities in which he played as his style and persona transcended the sport. Angel […]

Mike Milbury calls Phil Kessel a “pain in the ass”

Brace yourself – Mike Milbury said something stupid again. This time he said Phil Kessel is a “pain in the ass” and is uncoachable during a recent rant on NBCSN. Milbury’s comments come just one day after Kessel defended himself after a reporter insinuated that he was responsible for the coaching change in Toronto. Milbury’s comments, […]

Video: Minnesota Wild coach Mike Yeo yells at his team during practice

The Minnesota Wild are in an ugly downward spiral and head coach Mike Yeo isn’t sure what to do about it. He has already accused his team of not having a winner’s attitude and players have already said that they have hit rock bottom. With just two wins over their last 10 games, you’d expect […]

Video: NHL stars surprise sled hockey team, join them for a game

Back in August, the Cruisers Sledge Hockey team agreed to appear in a documentary by Gatorade. Sledge hockey, or sled hockey as it’s referred to in the United States, is an incredible sport and it’s an amazing sight to see in person. The athletes who compete are immensely talented. The documentary would have been a […]
