Kings One Win Away From Stanley Cup; Rangers Sliding On Their Faces
The first thing that grabs the eye is, obviously, just how close this came to crossing the line and giving the Kings a 4-0 lead.

L.A. Kings Put Will Ferrell "Go Kings Go" Video Sign Outside MSG
There is a monstrous video screen with Will Ferrell's mug shouting "Go Kings Go," and other ravings about losing his mind, in the shadow of the Empire State Building.

Guy Buys $1 Stanley Cup Tickets; StubHub Takes Them Away
Thanks to yet another StubHub seller who is bad at decimal places, a New York Rangers fan was able to purchase a few tickets for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals for $1 each (the purchase came with a $8.20 service fee, but who's complaining?). Unfortunately, this lucky Rangers fan probably won't end...

Tuukka Rask Shuts Out Chicago Despite "Shitty" Ice; Bruins Lead 2-1
Game 3 actually ended in regulation, a nice change of pace from the first two games, but not before a short scuffle with about 11 seconds left. It looked like it was going to get really ugly for a second, but the refs quickly got control of the action and the game ended without (much) incident. Unl...

Jaromir Jagr's Playoff Beard Is Way Too Much
There are some things Jaromir Jagr is unmistakably great at. Playing hockey, for instance—which Jagr does especially well, even now, at the age of 41. When he puts his hips out and leans forward, with his body between the defender and the puck, no one can dream of filching possession. He may have b...
