Damien Brunner Cheats At Keepy-Uppy
Via Guyism, this gif of Red Wings forwards Damien Brunner and Gustav Nyquist getting loose before last night's Game 3. That's not nice....
A Brutal No-Goal Call, And The Blackhawks Are On The Ropes
Hockey's never been much for the sanctity of seeds. No one blinked last year when the eight-seeded Kings blew through the competition on the way to a Cup. So it's not any sort of mathematical upset that the Red Wings took a 2-1 lead in their series with the top-seeded Blackhawks last night—but they ...
Red Wings Fan Vigorously Jiggles Her Boobs At Referees

The Year's Best Crossover Came In The NHL
Picking a "best hockey player in the world" is a fool's errand. We anoint an Alex Ovechkin, who seems determined to prove us wrong. We back one or another Penguin, when's it not even clear which is the best on his own team. We even, for a feverish couple of weeks, decide on Claude Giroux; whoops. Bu...
The NHL Appears Ready For Radical Four-Conference Realignment
A year ago, the NHL introduced a major realignment plan. Gone were the six divisions, and two conferences. In were four geographic conference, with the winners of each thrown into a final four for the Stanley Cup. The Board of Governor's approved the plan, but it was essentially scuttled by the lock...
Pavel Datsyuk Scores Goal After Skating Through Entire Team
This is hockey's version of going coast-to-coast, though with a much greater degree of difficulty. It's the Red Wings' Pavel Datsyuk single-handedly tying the Predators and forcing overtime with 6:30 to play last night in Nashville. Datsyuk ultimately couldn't do it all, though. The Preds went on ...
Headline Above Newspaper's Blowjob Pantomime Photo: "Taking Hard Hit To Chin"
Yesterday, we all had a good laugh at the Columbus Dispatch's photo of the pivotal play from Monday night's Red Wings-Blue Jackets game. Something something Damien Brunner scored a shootout goal something something we think the Red Wings won something something ... oh, look: That fan in the front ro...
Newspaper Photograph Of Hockey Game Highlighted By Fan's Blowjob Pantomime

The Harlem Globetrotters Played A Game On Ice
This is a poor substitute for the Winter Classic, yes, but perhaps the good people of Portage, Mich., found some consolation joy in the Harlem Globetrotters' outdoor game today. The Globetrotters strapped on their ice cleats and triumphed 24-10 over some hapless dudes who fell for the ball-on-a-st...
Report: The Detroit Red Wings Are Tax Delinquents
The city of Detroit is a fiscal disaster. Its bond rating was downgraded to an even lower junk status last month, it's looking at the prospect of having its finances taken over by the state next year, and layoffs of city workers seem unavoidable. Mayor Dave Bing—yes, that Dave Bing—has promised to c...

No, The City Of Detroit Will Not Lose $84 Million If The NHL Season Is Canceled
The lockout has officially arrived when newspapers start reporting half-baked economic impact projections that are so far removed from reality as to be laughable. You know the sort. "Team X brings in so much money, without them the city would go broke and revert to feudalism OMG." These studies are ...
The Kings And Red Wings Are Fighting On Twitter
La, la, today's just another pretty August day where the cool breeze creeps in—hinting that hockey season's coming soon—and ruffles your hair for a second before you realize that the wind is lying and that hockey's not coming back until 2013 because the owners lie to themselves....
"It Took His Nose Right Over His Right Eye": A Team Equipment Manager Tells All
There aren't many jobs in professional sports less glamorous (yet more important) than that of the equipment managers, but Brad "Dogg" Thompson has been a fixture with the Grand Rapids Griffins hockey team for some 15 years now.

Todd Bertuzzi, Ping Pong Enforcer [UPDATE]
The feud between the Red Wings and Predators that began when Shea Weber smacked Henrik Zetterberg's head off the turnbuckle glass at the end of Game 1 has extended all the way to table tennis. At Joe Louis Arena, there's a ping pong table in the hallway between the home and visitors locker rooms. An...
