Those who paid the price of admission to watch the Boston Bruins take on the Pittsburgh Penguins last night at the Consol Energy Center sure got their money’s worth.

Ilya Kovalchuk Shootout FAIL! (Video)
Is signing a 15-year, $100-million contract really worth all the baggage that comes with it? Sure, you are one rich man, but for a shorter contract and less money, you would still be a rich man, and you wouldn’t be put under a similar microscope. I would love to hear Ilya Kovalchuk’s answer to that [...]

The Anaheim Ducks’ George Parros has made a reputation for himself in hockey circles as a tough guy with one of the NHL’s best mustaches.

Kings Pay Tribute To Ryan Smyth With Practice Mullets (Video)
Partick Kane’s playoff mullet was quite impressive, but there may be no player currently in the game of hockey whose name is more synonymous with the mullet than the Kings’ Ryan Smyth.

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night — Scott vs. Stortini — 11/7/10
This bout appeared to be a mismatch of epic proportions. During Sunday night’s game between the Edmonton Oilers and the Chicago Blackhawks, the Oilers’ Zack Stortini had a moment of bravery and decided to challenge the Blackhawks’ John Scott to a fight. Big mistake! Standing at an imposing 6’8, 258-pounds, Scott had 4-inches and 43 [...]

Dan Carcillo spent the majority of last night’s game against the New York Rangers going after super-pest Sean Avery.

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night — Sid The Kid Gets Angry — 11/3/10
Sidney Crosby can do it all. As the captain and leader of his Pittsburgh Penguins, he has the ability to score the big goal, make a great play to set up one of his teammate, and apparently he can even drop the gloves when his team needs a spark. Crosby hasn’t gotten into many fight [...]

Any enforcer will tell you that the most difficult opponent to defend yourself against is the one that can throw a devastating haymaker with both his left and his right hand.

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night — Two Unlikely Combatants Square Off — 10/26/10
One month into the 2010-11 NHL campaign and I am already beginning to think that maybe this league no longer needs enforcers. Not as long as the likes of Pavel Datsyuk, Corey Perry, and Chris Stewart are dropping the gloves and throwing their fists. Last night in Calgary, two more unlikely combatants squared off as [...]
