The NHL Had A Good Day Yesterday
The Stanley Cup Playoffs, like the NBA playoffs, drag on for what feels like an eternity-spanning April, May and June.

This Young Pens Fan Brought Her Teddy Bear To Last Night's Game. The Bear's Name? "Miller Lite."
Kids give their stuffed animals crazy names. When I was little, I had a stuffed bunny named "Ted Kennedy."

Martin Havlat Gave The Sharks A Game One Win With This Double-Overtime Goal
There's plenty of reasons the Stanley Cup playoffs are the best in sports, but the chance for extended, multiple-overtime games is certainly one of them.

Torrey Pines Cut Kyle Stanley One Of Those Oversized Checks Before His Epic Collapse At No. 18
And it was discovered under the grandstand, sometime after Stanley fell apart at the conclusion of yesterday's Farmers Insurance Open.
