I have been watching hockey since I moved back from England in the second grade -- some 15 years now -- and I have been to dozens and dozens of NHL hockey games, but prior to this past Wednesday night, I had never seen a shootout in person. Sure I have seen them on T.V., and I have been in a hometow...

Just ask Daniel Alfredsson (left), who’s having a jaw-droppingly crappy week, if whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. It’s been a rough spell for Daniel Alfredsson, as first photos of him wearing a pink dress in Las Vegas find their way onto the inter-tubes, then his jaw goes boom....

From the moment the NBA, NHL, and even the NFL opened up their 2009 All-Star Game voting to the public, folks have been trying whatever means necessary to screw with the results. Sometimes it even works! There used to be a time when you would go to a game—in person!—grab a couple of crap...

Down goes… Eines der Dinge die ich “zwischen den Jahren” mir vorgenommen habe, ist meinen Feed-Reader leer zu lesen, wo u.a. 2.000 Items aus der NHL darauf warten zumindest überflogen zu werden. Generell ist die Stimmung in der NHL angesichts der weltweiten Finanzkrise sehr viel d...
