Hockey Beat — OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ryan O’Byrne scored on his own empty net during a delayed penalty after Carey Price headed to the bench waiting for the call!  As a result, the game went into overtime and the Montreal Canadiens ended up not only losing their lead but also the game to the New York Islanders.  Just look at Price coming off the bench looking across the ice.  He must have been so pissed! ...

The prettiest goal Bill Guerin will ever score
The Two-Line Pass — My internet and television have both been spotty as hell tonight so I didn’t watch any hockey games. I did, however, get this sent to me by reader “Lexus Prime,” which I am assuming is his real name. As a consequence, you will get no Good Night. Settle for this and take your issues with my lack of posting up with Comcast. Check this out: On a delayed call for the Habs, Ryan O’Byrne is pressured by Doug Weight back into his own zone and puts the puck into his own net. O’Byrne’s side of the story is that he was unaware of the delayed call and thought he could pass it back to Carey Price, who was enjoying some Gatorade on the ...

The Pensblog - A Pittsburgh Penguin Site Managed By A Bunch Of Jokes That Can Barely Run Their Own Lives — Ah, just a few weeks ago Montreal was on top of the world. They looked unbeatable. Everything was great in Montreal fanboy nation. Then, two weeks ago J.S. from C-blog uncovered a Montreal plot to stuff the ballot. Ever since then the Habs are 2-3-2, and they look like shit.

Video: Montreal's O'Byrne scores into own net for Islanders
Puck Daddy — This might be the brain-fart of the season, and we're only in November. Either that or Montreal defenseman Ryan O'Byrne is hoping the offensive incentives in his contract include goals scored for the opposition. From last night's 4-3 shootout win for the New York Islanders at the Montreal Canadiens, here's O'Byrne tying the game in the third period ... for the Isles: The goal was credited to Bill Guerin at 15:13 of the third period in, perhaps, one of the earliest empty-net goals in NHL history.

NHL News from Around the League - Nov. 25th
Movable Type System Activity — The New York Islanders defeated the Eastern Conference All-Star team yesterday, 4-3 in a shootout. The strangest part of the game was Ryan O'Byrne's goal. The Canadiens player scored with less than 5 minutes remaining in the third period to tie the game at 3. Unfortunately O'Byrne scored on his own net, and he tied the game for the Islanders. I'm not sure what was funnier, O'Byrne clutching his head in anguish after he scored, or the Islanders players celebrating the goal. Watch. I wonder if he'll make the All-Star team. Numerous players had two goal games last night, all of them scoring on the opposing team's goal. ...

Habs Get O'Byrned
The Power Play — I'm still feeling nauseous after the horrific Ryan O'Byrne incident from Monday night's Habs game against the Islanders. I've even downed a whole bottle of Pepto Bismol (the champagne of diarrhea medication) trying to make myself feel better. For those who missed it and have no idea what I'm talking about, this is easily the biggest brain fart, boneheaded, dumb ass, no talent gaffe you'll ever see. With the Habs in the lead 3-2 late in the third period, Canadiens defenseman (and I use that term very loosely) Ryan O'Byrne is chasing 73 year old Doug Weight to a puck on a delayed penalty call. O'Byrne beats out Weight because he skates like a ...
