Jack, The Georgetown Bulldog, May Need Knee Surgery
At eight years old, Jack is no spring chicken. But he recently injured his leg jumping to the couch, and is going for a second opinion to see if surgery will be required.

AHL Player Turns Into Crazy Person, Decides To Fight Everybody And Their Goalie
Steve MacIntyre is one of those guys who's always up and down from the NHL, and garners more penalty minutes than scoring chances.
