Jeff Teague Saved The Hawks, Only To Murder Them
In their overtime loss to the Celtics last night, just about every member of the Atlanta Hawks besides Paul Millsap played like dogshit. One of the chief offenders was point guard Jeff Teague, who shot a dismal 4-18, and had just five assists to three turnovers. He missed almost every shot as the ga...
Finally, Patrick Kane
Pushed to the edge of elimination, the Blackhawks haven’t gotten much from their best goalscorers—and the Blues have. Patrick Kane, the NHL’s regular-season points leader, hadn’t found the back of the net through the first four games. Or through three periods of last night’s game. Or in the first ov...
NBCSN Cuts Off Pat Foley's Rant About Late NHL Starts
The odd NHL postseason scheduling has resulted in some quirks, including Central time zone games reaching well into the A.M. hours—and that’s ignoring the ever-present spectre of overtime.

Andrew Shaw Miraculously Remembers What He Said To Official, Apologizes [Update]
In a stunning turn of events, Blackhawks forward Andrew Shaw now recalls what he said to an official after being called for a penalty in Tuesday’s game against the Blues.

Widehawks Look Terrible
We’re at the point now where the wide Mohawk haircut—clean-shaven on the sides, business at the back, party size of your choice up top—has become a staple hairstyle for athletes all over the world. But why? Why the fuck have so many athletes decided to rock extreme negburns and walk around looking l...
Harry The Hawk Crotched Himself
That ugly-ass Hawks-Celtics game was only made less painful to watch by an unfortunate pratfall from Atlanta’s mascot, who will not be fertilizing eggs anytime soon. Keep an eye on Harry’s tightrope routine at the bottom of the screen:...
Corey Crawford Lost His Mind For A Second There
I think staged fighting is hockey’s biggest joke and I’m glad it’s on its way out. But give me a goalie hulking out, in full pads, and I lose my mind like a kid who just found out it’s a snow day, or the people from this perfect tweet. So my personal highlight of last night’s very busy 4-3 Blues win...
Andrew Shaw On Apparent Video of Him Shouting Gay Slur At Official: "I Don't Know What I Said"
The Blackhawks lost Game 4 against the St. Louis Blues 4-3 this evening in Chicago, and they’re now just a game away from their Stanley Cup defense ending after one round.

That Terrible Celtics-Hawks Game, In One Play
The Hawks just took a 2-0 lead in their first round series with the Boston Celtics after a prehistoric, listless game.

The Celtics Just Had The Worst First Quarter In NBA Playoff History
The Atlanta Hawks were held scoreless for the last five minutes and change of the first quarter of tonight’s playoff game against Boston, but that doesn’t matter because the shamrock boys just took a world historic shit and scored only seven points over the entire first period on 3-for-23 shooting. ...

Blues Take Series Lead Over Blackhawks On Fluke Overtime Goal
You take it. It doesn’t matter how lucky or unpretty a goal is, or how little it has to do with the person credited with it, you take the score. Especially in the playoffs, especially in overtime, especially against a Blackhawks team that’s about to get Duncan Keith back. You take the 1-0 series lea...

The Hawks Stranded Jeff Teague At The Detroit Arena Last Night
The Hawks beat the Pistons last night, and Jeff Teague scored 12 points in the victory. This apparently wasn’t enough to get him his spot on the team bus, as they left without him and he had to call his sister to come and pick him up. At least he had a pizza?...

St. Joseph's Coach Phil Martelli Wants To Know Where The Weed's At
St. Joseph’s took down Cincinnati 78-76 after the Bearcats had a game-tying dunk wiped out at the end of regulation.

NHL Says Rape Allegations Against Patrick Kane Were "Unfounded"
Well, this is a hell of a statement. The NHL has concluded its investigation into sexual assault claims against Blackhawks star Patrick Kane made in August, and the league’s release doesn’t merely say that Kane won’t be disciplined. It goes even further than law enforcement, which declined to prosec...
