I knew the Penguins would finally land on
their feet after this glorious 10-0-1 run of late,
but I wasn't thinking it would be like this. Sidney Crosby injured his ankle early in the first period during their game with Tampa Bay tonight. FSN Pittsburgh's Bob Errey reported that Crosby could miss up to four weeks. EEK! TSN has the details:
After a 28-year vacation, the immortal Peter Puck
is returning to television as part of Maple Leaf
broadcasts. Mr. Puck was first introduced during the 1970's on NBC to help American viewer's understand the game better. Later, he also could be found on CBC's coverage of Hockey Night in Canada.

During intermission of a Dallas Stars game, 9
year old Max Gherlach wowed the crowd and pulled
this move. I believe Kevin Lowe is readying an offer-sheet to Gherlach's youth club.
They played beer league softball in Tiger Stadium.
Nicholas Cage shot Snake Eyes at the Montreal Forum.
Those are two examples of the last events at legendary venues in North America. As another iconic piece of architecture closes within the next year, it looks as if they're going to be playing hockey at Yankee Stadium before they close the doors for good.

RIP "Badger" Bob Johnson. 16 years ago Monday,

If you're a hockey fan you certainly know
who Don Cherry is, even if you don't have
the NHL Center Ice package, in which case you've probably seen one of hisRock Em Sock Em Hockey videos. Besides being an outspoken and controversial pundit, Cherry is adored all over Canada and was even named one of the greatest Canadians ever.
Voting for the 2008 NHL All-Star Game in
Atlanta began yesterday and the only way you can
help put your favorite players in is through the internet or your Verizon phone. Say goodbye to punch-hole / hanging chad ballots and hello technology!
Both teams will be sporting retro looks for
the New Year's Day Game
Tomorrow, former Philadelphia Flyer Eric Lindros is expected
to announce his retirement from the NHL, ending his
13-year career. Many will unfortunately remember Lindros for his concussion problems or forcing his way out of Quebec and not remember the dominant power forward he was.
Gary Bettman will be doing his best Howard
Stern impression as the Commish will be hosting his
own live radio show on XM called "NHL Hour", to be co-hosted by the moustached one, Bill Clement. Starting Tuesday, November 27th, the show will run 4-5pm on the NHL Home Ice channel 204 and through the leagues website, NHL.com. Beginning December 6, the show will run every Thursday at the same time slot
Ho, ho, ho! Christmas and Hannukah are within
reach. New Year's and the Winter Classic are right
around the corner. Can you believe how quick the season is going? We're two months in already and patterns are beginning to develop. That number one goalie you planned on riding to the playoffs isn't playing so hot (Pittsburgh Penguins). That hot seat just got hotter for your general manager (Atlanta T
What you're seeing there on the right is
the new NHL Stats Channel that debuted today on
Direct TV. A few weeks ago, Direct TV began moving the NHL Center Ice channels up a few slots and starting them at channel 770, instead of channel 764. Once the move had been made, if you turned to channel 769, it would be a black screen, but the preview box would say, "UPCOMING: NHL STATS CHANNEL".

I made a comment just before the third
period ended that Gary Bettman-style perfect ending to this
game would be Sidney Crosby scoring the game-winning goal in a shoot-out. Little did I know at the time. I should have bought a lottery ticket then.
The National Hockey League was born in 1917.
The players did not have a union until 1967,
fifty years later. Two years after that, the referees finally had their own association. Now, they have their own website!

Got some extra Christmas or Chanukkah cash lying
around and feel like making a huge purchase? Ever
want to own an actual game-worn hockey jersey, or maybe a game-used puck, or perhaps, used pants shells from today's Winter Classic between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Buffalo Sabres? Fret no more my friend, game-used jersey giant MeiGray is here to help:
With the NHL announcing last week that it
will introduce an NBA-style shootout to this year's Skill
Competition with a panel of celebrity judges, I was thinking of who the league might want to consider using as judges for their first foray into this type of thing. I hope, whomever they do choose, takes the thing seriously and won't throw aorund 10's for the crappiest of moves, much like what we se
