per the ESPN alert, it said "bloop doping." bad place for a typo, I say.

12/29/2008 2:16:21 PM

why would Lemieux want to return at 44?

he must be hard up for cash and be looking for an NHL paycheck.

12/29/2008 3:31:03 PM

maybe he just wants more Red Wings to hate him.

12/29/2008 3:34:16 PM

i think he looks at chelios and thinks "i'm tougher than that fucker"

12/29/2008 3:34:52 PM

Sundin took to the ice with the Canucks for the first time this morning. Won't be in lineup tonight. Best guess for his first game is Jan. 7 in Edmonton.

World Junior Tourney gets real in about 45 mins when Canada vs. USA gets underway with a bye to the semis on the line.

Sweden routed Russia 5-0 earlier today to secure their bye to the semis in the other pool.

That Canada/USA game was an instant classic. Couldn't ask for more in a hockey game. Unfortunately it looks like Boychuk may be done for the tournament with some sort of leg injury.

Never seen this Roy video before:

1/1/2009 5:13:05 PM

lol

That is my favorite Roy moment. The NHL Hitz style goalie spin move at center ice.

1/1/2009 5:14:27 PM

lol, and they cant hit him out there can they?

1/1/2009 5:17:51 PM

That's part of the reason for the rule; without the red line rule, it would theoretically be possible for the goalies to skate end-to-end on each other untouched.

"The Marian Gaborik situation has reached a potentially catastrophic juncture. Assistant General Manager Tom Lynn confirmed Thursday that Gaborik, who has missed 30 of 36 games this season, might have surgery to repair what Lynn described as a "deficiency" in his left hip that has been causing him groin pain all season. If Gaborik has surgery, Lynn said he would be out until "at or near the end of the season," meaning the Wild just might be stuck with an untradeable asset."

I miss Roy, he was the man

1/2/2009 12:51:30 AM

Not sure what the fuck the US is doing here. Down 2-1 to Slovakia in the first.

1/2/2009 4:00:00 PM

wtf? 3-1???

1/2/2009 4:31:31 PM

3-1 after 2... jesus christ...

1/2/2009 5:02:01 PM

WHAT THE FUCK AMERICA

1/2/2009 5:39:37 PM

1 bronze medal in 5 years

1/2/2009 5:59:05 PM

tough loss. i was looking forward to a USA-Canada rematch in the gold medal game.

Slovakia is going to get their ass beat by Sweden in the semis

1/2/2009 6:02:20 PM

LOL @ Crosby getting 19 PIMs today.

2 minutes for holding (11:47 2nd)

THEN at 17:01 of the 2nd:
2 for instigating (from the bench)
2 for unsportsmanlike conduct
5 for fighting (a 5-11, 185lb guy)
10 for misconduct (since he presumably left the bench to fight)

1/3/2009 3:15:02 PM

ha

can't wait to see video of the fight

1/3/2009 3:15:43 PM

didn't come off the bench

but jumped the guy off the faceoff

1/3/2009 4:06:40 PM

Wow.

What a bitch.

1/3/2009 4:10:20 PM

Crosby is definitely a dick.

damn, that is a bitch move. the nhl equivalent of punching someone as you tap gloves in boxing or mma.

1/3/2009 4:34:20 PM

his donkey punch was pretty fucking low

1/3/2009 5:04:49 PM

Well I guess one thing the Americans can take comfort in is that Slovakia nearly stunned Sweden today as well. Sweden into the final 5-3, though.

1/3/2009 5:59:30 PM

ha semin fights like a girl

1/3/2009 8:57:01 PM

Yeah... Somebody needs to teach Semin how to fight.


How about the starting lineups for the all star game??? What a joke.

http://www.nhl.com/ice/eventhome.htm?location=/allstar/2009

Komisarek??? Seriously???

How can you possibly leave off Ovechkin?

1/3/2009 10:03:05 PM

12 ASG Starters

4 Habs
3 Blackhawks
3 Ducks
2 Penguins

1/3/2009 10:05:03 PM

The ASG starters were voted by the fans

Anyway,

FUCK CANADA

1/3/2009 10:24:32 PM

Specifically fuck Montreal as they were originally trying to sweep it. At least Crosby and Malkin booted out 2 of the useless habs.

Quote :

"Komisarek's selection to start his first All-Star Game is a testament to fans seeing beyond the offensive numbers. Despite missing a month with a shoulder injury, Komisarek ranks third on the Canadiens with 72 blocked shots and fifth with 71 hits. He's also chipped in 2 points and is a plus-2 in his first 21 games. "

I mean really they had to write this, but it was just because he's a Canadien and that's the only reason he was voted in. That's all Montreal fans did for weeks I think was vote in their useless players.

1/3/2009 10:28:33 PM

How the fuck does Alexander Ovechkin get passed over for the All-Star game?

1/3/2009 10:30:29 PM

He'll be in it, just not a starter. The system is laughable.

1/3/2009 10:31:18 PM

1/3/2009 11:30:47 PM

Slap fight Semin.

Someone needs to GIF Redden drilling Clark in the face.

Oh, also, the Rangers have the absolute worst powerplay in the league. It's god awful.

1/4/2009 11:25:49 AM

ahhh hahahaha semin

imagine the damage he could've done if he hadn't left his purse on the bench

1/4/2009 4:09:04 PM

even tanabe thinks he fights like a bitch.

1/4/2009 4:20:17 PM

just saw the redden punch

right on the goddamn button

Western Conference All-Stars (*starters)

Jonathan Toews (Chicago)*
Patrick Kane (Chicago)*
Ryan Getzlaf (Anaheim)*
Jarome Iginla (Calgary)
Milan Hejduk (Colorado)
Rick Nash (Columbus)
Mike Modano (Dallas)
Pavel Datsyuk (Detroit)
Dustin Brown (Los Angeles)
Shane Doan (Phoenix)
Keith Tkachuk (St. Louis)
Joe Thornton (San Jose)

Brian Campbell (Chicago)*
Scott Neidermayer (Anaheim)*
Nicklas Lidstrom (Detroit)
Sheldon Souray (Edmonton)
Shea Weber (Nashville)
Dan Boyle (San Jose)

J.S. Giguere (Anaheim)*
Roberto Luongo (Vancouver)
Niklas Backstrom (Minnesota)


Luongo is hurt, so hopefully they will replace him with Steve Mason. Chicago and Anaheim with 3 players, Detroit and San Jose with 2, all other teams with 1. Vancouver won't have anybody if Luongo is replaced.
