The NHL is going to be holding its collective breath this summer that no stories come over the wire from Russia involving some combination of Alexander Ovechkin and hookers, cocaine, vodka, sportscars, or gangsters.
@Theodore Donald Kerabatsos: I think they are going to be hoping that news like that comes out to keep the NHL in the news just like the NFL and ESPN are milking every story about a suicidal, dog fighting, or washed up quarterback trying to find a team to take them just to stay in the news all year round.
@Trot Nixons Hat: He didn't join the line until it was basically over and many of the Red Wings had gone to the locker room. It appeared to me that Babcock (and maybe one or two players) were the only one he shook hands with.
My happiness for you is tempered by the fact that I will never, ever get to see another North Stars game again. What the hell is a "Wild" anyway? Singular? Plural?
@Pornstars-for-Wilbon: Considering how awkward my SB XLIII party got when the Steelers were losing, it's probably better I was by myself. But I could have gone to Manhattan to the only Penguins bar in the city, and as I just found out, I would have known a few people there. Oh well. I can celebrate on my own. One-man party! Whoooooo!
Seattle is just disgusted with all pro sport. It's nothing personal toward hockey -- though one of Stern's henchman being in charge doesn't help -- & will clear up once Jim Mora, Jr., hoists a Lombardi trophy.

Notice Lidstrom (the captain, hint, hint) waiting, and then giving up and skating away. That's why fans were booing last night.

Well, probably his multimillion dollar salary, private chef and executive washroom.

I should have gone out to a bar. Watching my team win a title while I'm home alone isn't as much fun as I thought.
