Mike Cammalleri, On The Ice With Bladeless Skates, Looks Pitiful

Adam Burish Took A Puck To The Hand And Things Got Gross
During last night's game against the Oilers, San Jose Sharks forward Adam Burish blocked a shot with his hand. Burish hit the ice, doubled over in pain, and immediately skated his way to the locker room. Let's take a look at the reason why:...
Vinny Lecavalier Hit Both Posts And The Crossbar
The Flyers center saw his second-period shot rim out last night. "I couldn't believe it," Lecavalier said. "I don't think I've ever seen three posts–I've seen two." Given that Philly lost by a goal and fell—at least for now—into third in the Metro, those bad bounces could be particularly costly one...

Attending A Devils Game In A Zach Parise Jersey Sounds Like Hell [Updates]
Devils fans booed Zach Parise every time he touched the puck last night, in the star winger's first return to New Jersey since he signed with the Wild in 2012. So the mood was predictable hostile, but according to one Minnesota fan, the venom extended into the stands in an ugly way....

Phil Kessel Vs. The Water Bottle, Water Bottle Wins
It was that kind of night for the Leafs, one that started with James Reimer giving up a goal on the first shot he faced, saw a scary injury to Paul Ranger, Kessel's inability to properly hydrate, and ended 5-3 Lightning, more fodder for the Reimer discussion....
Idiot Invades Ice At Air Canada Centre, Gets Pummeled By Security
We're still seeking good video of this, but late in Tampa Bay's 5-3 win over the Leafs a Toronto fan somehow managed to scale the glass and make his way onto the ice during a timeout. The fan, we're told, ran around on the ice, squatted in a faceoff circle, then got pummeled by security. Send us vid...

Six Ways The Florida Panthers Want To Screw Broward County
The Panthers want public funds to fix up the BB&T Center. Something in the neighborhood of $80 million in tax subsidies would be nice. They're asking because it'd be corporately negligent for a franchise not to at least try to milk taxpayers out of cash for something that won't economically contribu...
Senators Player Autographs Reply To "Twitter Troll"
Way back in November, Adnan, an editor at Sens blog Silver Seven, offered up a snarky tweet about Ottawa defenseman Marc Methot. It wasn't particularly mean, and it didn't include Methot's Twitter handle, but Methot, presumably searching for his name, noticed. He replied with the old "you've never p...
Fan Tries To Take Selfie In Front Of Jaromir Jagr, Gets Jagrbombed
Just great work by everyone involved here. That's perfect framing by the selfie taker to get himself, Jagr, and bewildered Devils lady Cory Schneider in the picture, and Jagr has just the right mix of mischievousness and nonchalance that's needed to pull off a good photobomb. ...
