Always keep your head up out on the ice. Mike Santorelli apparently forgot this rule and Drew Doughty made him pay. Watch as Santorelli completely ignores his surroundings and tries to get a shot off only to be crushed by Doughty. Doughty smash!

You’ve probably heard a ton of rumors around the NHL featuring Tyler Myers. Lots of teams want the defenseman, but to date the Sabres haven’t given any indication that they actually want to trade Myers away. While that may change in the future, GM Tim Murray has made it clear that he hasn’t actively shopped Myers […]

Everyone loves a good, lengthy hockey fight. Usually the more balanced the better, but sometimes it’s extremely satisfying to see a fight which has one clear winner. This week’s list is loaded with lopsided bouts, so put down your scorecard and get ready to watch some brutal victories. 5. Tim Gleason (CAR) vs Barret Jackman (STL) […]

Darryl Sutter has an idea on how the NHL can bring some life to the All-Star Game. Instead of the league splitting up into two teams or instead of having two players draft a squad, Sutter would like to see the reigning Cup champion take on a team of the league’s best. Here’s Sutter’s take, […]

Last season provided several water bottle incidents to discuss, but to date the 2014-15 campaign has been free from water squirting stories. Andrew Shaw changed that and provided the first of 2014-15 when he sprayed Pierre McGuire with his bottle during Patrick Sharp’s interview. It’s safe to assume Pierre enjoyed it.

Dan Boyle returned to San Jose for the first time on Saturday night when the Sharks hosted the New York Rangers. During a stoppage, the Sharks played a video honoring Boyle’s six years in San Jose and the crowd delivered a huge standing ovation. Boyle’s smile couldn’t have been much larger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYdXFP_UDmc

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
