Voting opened for the upcoming NHL All-Star Game and some crazy names are leading such as John Scott and Rob Scuderi. While fans continue to troll the ballot, one other name is receiving a ton of votes out of respect as opposed to hilarity and that’s Jaromir Jagr. Jagr appreciates all the votes, but he […]

The 2016 NHL All-Star voting has barely started and fans are already hilariously trolling the ballot. Arizona Coyotes scrapper John Scott is currently among the leaders in voting, as fans on Twitter and Reddit have really gone all out to try to get the 6-foot-8 winger into the 3-on-3 game. Let’s break down Scott’s All-Star resume: […]

When you are a player with a 13-year, $98 million dollar contract, you would think that there wouldn’t be a lot to complain about. But apparently for Wild defenseman Ryan Suter, he has a lot to say. He wasn’t happy to be paired with Jonas Brodin. Michael Russo of the Star Tribune put a lot of […]

Radko Gudas was trying to disrupt a shot from Mika Zibanejad and he may have gotten a bit carried away. Gudas elevated, striking Zibanejad directly in the face. The hit appeared to be pretty intentional as Gudas was rushing in straight at the Senators forward. Paging the Department of Player Safety.

Anaheim Ducks forward Ryan Kesler is a very confident man. He told Helene Elliott of the Los Angeles Times that his team is too good to not be in the playoffs. “If we keep playing like we are, we’re going to get in the playoffs. It’s only a matter of time,” he said told Elliott yesterday […]

While the Vezina is a little more structured in what people may be looking for in a candidate, the Hart is almost the exact opposite. The Hart Trophy is described as the MVP, but at times it is solely awarded to the best scorer in the league. Sometimes an amalgamation of the Art Ross and Hart […]

Garret Sparks became the first goalie in Maple Leafs history to pick up a shutout in his debut. He made some great saves, but one of the coolest moments was a non-incident in which Sparks lost his balance and fell down. Watch how he gets back up, courtesy of former goalie Martin Biron. Just … what? […]

In a devastating blow to the Montreal Canadiens, goaltender Carey Price will miss time after injuring his left knee. He had previously missed time earlier this season after slipping on a puck during warmup per Elliotte Friedman, and it appears he reaggravated the injury. The Canadiens announced Price will miss six weeks, but will not require surgery. […]

Claude Julien and Brad Marchand posited that Henrik Lundqvist had done some acting in regards to a right knee that connected to Lundqvist’s head. Alain Vigneault didn’t take too kindly to those words and fired […]

The Teddy Bear Toss is a great tradition in junior hockey. The idea is that when the home team scores their first goal, fans throw teddy bears on the ice in celebration. Those teddy bears are collected and donated to kids in need. That’s exactly what happened in last Friday’s matchup between the OHL’s Guelph […]

In a game such as hockey, you would be surprised by the lack of injuries from skates. One would think that on a fairly regular basis players would get maimed by the sharp knives on the bottom of their feet. In a recent KHL game that exact situation took place. Here a player took a […]

John Tortorella had some choice words for the Pittsburgh Penguins after Brandon Dubinsky received additional discipline for a cross-check on Sidney Crosby. No matter what you think of the suspension, I don’t think that there is anything better than Tortorella back in the league. Some Blue Jackets fans may cringe with him now involved with […]

With scoring down across the past few seasons, the NHL is looking for ways to increase goals. Reported proposals include decreasing the size of goalie equipment, and there’s even been talk of increasing the size of nets. One of the NHL’s most prolific goal-scorers isn’t on the side of changing the rules, as Tampa Bay Lightning […]
