Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Ruin NHL Awards With Confident, Butchered Pronunciation
Real Housewives Camille Grammer—Kelsey's ex—and Adrienne Maloof—sister of those bankrupt rich man-children who allegedly own the Sacramento Kings—presented the Lady Byng Trophy to Tampa Bay Lightning right wing Martin St. Louis at Wednesday's NHL Awards show. St. Louis is a six-time All-Star, he w...
Daniel Sedin Wins The Important Hardware: A Broken Trophy
The NHL awards were last night; we didn't watch. (Mostly a Jay Mohr thing.) So we couldn't tell you what outfit the readers of Seventeen picked out for Jeff Skinner, or if the pointless Jennings Trophy was handed beforehand, like the technical Oscars....
Jay Mohr And That Wretched "Like A G6" Band Will Perform At The NHL Awards Tonight, Everybody
Here is a list of the non-hockey stars—"some of the biggest names in Hollywood"—the NHL will have on hand tonight for its Las Vegas awards ceremony (7 p.m., Versus): Jon Hamm, Jerry Bruckheimer, Kevin Smith, Jennifer Beals.

Bruins Owner Used Today's Stanley Cup Parade To Rip On Cam Neely For Never Winning One As A Player
There are two things to consider about this snippet from Jeremy Jacobs's speech at today's celebration in Boston: 1) Why didn't George Steinbrenner use World Series parades in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2009 to remind the world that Donnie Baseball doesn't have a ring and 2) Did team President Sea...
Why We Shouldn't Blame Roberto "LeBrongo"
More people than ever before watched game seven of the Stanley Cup finals Wednesday night, and that's a good thing for hockey. Both the league and fans hoping for growth should delight that the NHL had its best American TV rating in 38 years even though one of the teams came from Canada....

When And How The Canucks Lost The Series
Patrice Bergeron's shorthanded goal made it 3-0 Boston in the waning moments of the second. For all intents and purposes, it was an insurmountable lead and was the moment the Cup engravers could start checking their spelling. But it was also a microcosm of so many things that swung the series for ...
There Was The Dumb Drunk Portion Of The Vancouver Riots, And Then Things Got Sinister
At about the three-minute mark in this video, the band of drunks redirects its impotent rage onto a man (described in the YouTube video as a security guard) who tries to keep them from smashing the department store windows. I'm still trying to make sense of when a sports-related riot shifts from b...
When They Rioted In Vancouver, At Least One Fool Took A Firework To The Groin
Tipster Angus D. kindly shared this six-second snippet of a fellow in a Vancouver Canucks jersey totally flopping after he got hit by an errant party favor. This occurred after the hometown side decided it was best to just let the Boston Bruins take the Stanley Cup home with them....

Roberto Luongo And The Last Stand Of the Superstar Goalie
Playoff hockey belongs to goalies. But recently it's belonged to goalies you've barely heard of beforehand—think of Jean-Sebastien Giguere, Miikka Kiprusoff, Cam Ward, Ilya Bryzgalov, Nikolai Khabibulin, Michael Leighton, Ray Emery, Antti Niemi—many of whom you barely hear of afterward, too. Every g...
Brad Marchand Punching Daniel Sedin Like An Inflatable Clown, Set To An Adorable Child's Song

Canucks Fans Get Their Hearts Stomped In Realtime
As many away teams do when there's a chance to clinch (the Mavs did it), the Canucks hosted a viewing party for fans at Rogers Arena in Vancouver. NHL.com decided it would be a fun idea to set up a livecam to capture crowd reactions....
Your Canucks/Bruins Game Six Open Thread (Body-Painted Canadians Edition)
These young ladies, evidently advertising Ke$ha's tour of Nunavut (I assume that's what glittermachine.ca must be) were outside the arena in Vancouver before game five. (They come to us via @Sportsfeeder1.)...
If A Canadian Team Wins A Title, Will They Visit The White House?
Should the Canucks win one of the next two games, they'll partake in one of the greatest traditions in pro sports: spending time with the Stanley Cup. But will they, or the Cup, receive the White House invite that's standard for championship teams? More to the point, would an American President hono...
Canadian Press Is Really, Really In The Tank For Canucks
This ain't a hometown columnist, folks. Although it would be frivolous even in that case.
