Nazem Kadri And Joe Thornton Get Mad, Get Thrown Out Of Faceoff Circle, Fight
The Leafs’ Nazem Kadri and Sharks’ Joe Thornton got chippy with each other about as fast as possible tonight—sniping at each other in the faceoff circle to the point of getting kicked out of the circle before dropping gloves to start fighting, all of two seconds into the game. ...

Erik Karlsson Wasn't Ready For Andreas Athanasiou
It took just six seconds for young Red Wing upstart Andreas Athanasiou to get the winning goal in overtime against the Senators Wednesday night. And for that, he can thank the best defenseman in hockey....

I Don't Really Know What To Make Of The U.S. Olympic Men's Hockey Team
During Monday’s Winter Classic, USA Hockey revealed the rosters for next month’s Olympics. And because of the NHL’s refusal to release its players (though the IOC is more deserving of the blame), the men’s team is weird as hell:...

Slovakia Beats USA 3-2 In Huge World Juniors Upset
A stunning coast-to-coast individual goal from Samuel Bucek gave Slovakia a massive 3-2 win over the United States in the preliminary round of the World Junior Championships tonight. With just 2:08 remaining in the game, it served as the perfect rebuttal to a Casey Mittelstadt equalizer a minute pri...

Nikita Kucherov And Steven Stamkos Have Beautiful Chemistry<em></em>
Tampa Bay Lightning scorers Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos have only been teammates since 2013, but at the end of the second period tonight against Montreal, the pair showed off the communication skills of a longtime married couple. As the Lightning pushed the puck down deep in the Canadiens’ zo...

Alex Ovechkin's Bullet One-Timers Will Never Get Old
The Washington Capitals entered the second period tonight against the Bruins down 2-0, and after a couple of scoreless games prior, they were staring down the longest goal drought in team history. But Lars Eller ended the struggle at 12:31, and less than two minutes later, Alex Ovechkin took a power...

Arena Worker Assailed By Czech Pucks
On one hand, you have to admire the Czech Republic World Junior team for their fierce commitment to getting in their practice reps. On the other, I’m terrified of their blatant disregard for human life, as seen when a Buffalo arena worker was still in the net as the team took the ice, and the young ...

Reports: Failure Will Move Back To Long Island After Things Didn't Work Out In Brooklyn
Five years after the announcement of a 25-year lease at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, the New York Islanders are already returning home—well, not quite home, but at least back out of New York City and onto the land mass* where they began (Correction: They never left the land mass). Reports say that a ...

Canucks' Brock Boeser Had To Crawl Off The Ice After Taking A Puck To The Foot
Canucks winger and 20-year-old rookie point leader Brock Boeser took a hard shot to his left foot in the second period of Vancouver’s game Sunday against the Flames. Even though Boeser clearly could not put any weight on his foot, play was not stopped, so he had to use his other leg to essentially r...

Austrian Hockey Fight Breaks Out During Intermission Interview
Tom Zanoski of Medveščak Zagreb in the Austrian Hockey League really didn’t want to talk about how that first period went. Or, anyway, he didn’t want to do it as much as he wanted to start throwing punches. Despite a TV reporter politely tapping Zanoski on the shoulder during the first intermission ...

Hot Damn, P.K. Subban Scored From A Million Miles Away
P.K. Subban put the Predators up 3-0 in the second period of tonight’s game against the Canucks, getting his second goal of the evening by scoring from a point that just logically seems like it should be near impossible to manage. (From center ice, if you want to get all technical about it)....

It's Teddy Bear Toss Season
The best promotion in hockey—maybe in sports—is back for the holiday season, and nobody does the Teddy Bear Toss quite like the WHL’s Calgary Hitmen. With the first goal Sunday by Vladislav Yeryomenko, Calgary fans littered the ice with 24,605 stuffed animals, to be donated to 60 local agencies and ...

Matthew Tkachuk Won't Stop Being A Pain In The Ass
Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk (on the bench, wearing No. 19) delivered his second dirty play within a month in Wednesday’s loss against the Leafs. While this one was subtle enough that it went unnoticed at the time, it’s still going to get him into trouble. The NHL will have a disciplinary...

Leafs Troll Calgary By Honoring Grey Cup Champs Before Game Against Flames
The Toronto Argonauts handed the Calgary Stampeders their second successive Grey Cup loss last week in heartbreaking fashion, returning a Calgary fumble 109 yards for a game-tying touchdown with five minutes remaining, then clinching with a late winning field goal. It was the kind of win that will f...

Is Alex Ovechkin DUN DUN DUN ... A Russian Agent?
Seeking to explain why Alex Ovechkin started the PutinTeam “social movement” earlier in the fall, a trio of Washington Post reporters went long on the Ovechkin-Putin bromance, and the genesis of Ovechkin’s PutinTeam launch. It’s a sprawling piece of work that explores both the origins and the effect...
