As the resident woman around Puck Drunk Love, whenever some odd scandalous comment pops up that could be perceived as "anti-woman" or "misogynist" pops up, I take a look at it.

Last week's edition of Hockey Fights of the Week might have left you feeling a bit unsatisfied. We'll be the first to admit that the fights were lackluster at best. How did the league respond?

By now you've probably heard speculation that Datsyuk will finish out the remaining year on his contract in 2013-14 before calling it quits in the NHL and playing out his final days in Russia.

Buzzfeed published these masterful gifs from Monday night's 4-0 Sharks win over the stumbling Phoenix Coyotes. Awesome saves? No. Sweet dekes? Nope. It was something more unexpected… and awkward. Call it yoga. Call it something out of the Kama Sutra. Call it whatever you want, but you must at least call it unique. The video explains […]
