<em>Hockey Night In Canada's</em> Pregame Video From Last Night Is Tremendous
I'm a sucker for a well-produced pregame video.

Penguins Keep Getting Trolled, Can't Catch A Goddamn Break

Matt Cooke's Dirty Hit Last Night Got A Fan Kicked Out Of His Band
In yesterday's NHL Eastern Conference finals game between the Boston Bruins and Pittsburgh Penguins, the Bruins crushed the Pens in Pittsburgh, 3-0, to take a 1-0 series lead. The biggest uproar from the night, however, may have come following a vicious, illegal hit early in the second period. ...

Check Out Jaromir Jagr At 18, When He First Got To Pittsburgh
In 1990, Jaromir Jagr arrived as a Penguins rookie from the former Czechoslovakia looking every bit like the dude from that one A-ha video.

Ottawa's Double-OT Winner Was Not A Thing Of Beauty

Kris Letang Cross-Checked A Linesman. That's A Suspension...Right?
Between Eric Gryba getting two games for a borderline hit that resulted in injury, and nobody from this Sens-Habs mess being punished, NHL playoff discipline seems even more "spin the wheel" than usual. But shoving an official would seem pretty clear-cut, no?...

Penguins Fan Gets Kicked Out Of Nassau Coliseum For Being Shithoused
"Sandstorm" plays in the background as a security guard escorts this super drunk Pittsburgh Penguins fan out of his seat.

Here's A Penguin Sitting In Rays Manager Joe Maddon's Chair
Shut up, don't ask questions. It doesn't matter why the Rays had a penguin running around in their clubhouse today. All that matters is that penguins are adorable....
