Oh, hello. Some of you might remember me from such things as "While The Men Watch HNIC segment drawing ire," in which I took down Hockey Night in Canada's inane attempt at getting the female demographic to watch hockey by introducing sex tips and God knows what else into the mix. Women are a […]

Just when you thought the “While The Men Watch” controversy was over, it turns out it’s not. On their official fan blog entitled “Blueshirts United,” the New York Rangers published an article entitled “A Girl’s Guide to Watching the Rangers” (Note: Rangers have removed the posting). Its purpose was to help new female […]

It'd be nice to talk about what Evander Kane is doing on the ice this season, but the Winnipeg Jet keeps on giving us stories to talk about away from the rink. People freaked out about him not reporting to training camp early. Then there's the infamous "phone" brick of cash photo that he Tweeted out […]

NHL veterans from around the league are off to extremely impressive starts so far in 2013. While we expected the lockout to have an impact on the legs of players across the board, it's the seasoned veterans that seem to be coping with the abbreviated training camp, lack of preseason and intense regular season schedule […]

It's getting to the point where we could run a regular column on all of the graphical errors we've seen so far this NHL season. Seriously. They're everywhere. It'd be more surprising if you were to make it through an entire NHL game without seeing a blooper. The Winnipeg Jets are now the "Winnipeg Jerts". […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=uDaJY1bDmFY?rel=0 Ceremonial puck drops have become pretty routine. Player X walks out, drops the puck and that's that. The Toronto Maple Leafs decided to add some creativity to their opening puck drop, dropping the puck from the International Space Station. Some friends in high places (literally) and a bit of TV magic combined to make […]

One or two games does not make a season — not even when your season's been truncated to 48 games. All fans and teams have heard about since the lockout ended is that it's important to start fast, that every point matters, and that letting two points slip away could be the difference between making […]

If you're not a fan of the St. Louis Blues, or if you're not a hockey fan that pours over each and every NHL roster, you might not have heard of Vladimir Tarasenko until after he scored two beautiful goals in his first NHL game. In fact, if you weren't able to catch up on […]
