With his team trailing by a score of 3-0 early in the third period of last night’s game against the Chicago Blackhawks, Calgary Flames defenseman Cory Sarich was looking to give his club some momentum by laying out Hawks forward Bryan Bickell with a bit open-ice check.

13 Worst Team Owners In The History Of Pro Sports
Determining the worst team owners in the history of pro sports is no easy task. There are a surprisingly large number of people out there who managed to become extremely rich despite not having a clue about how to run a successful business.

9 Best 3rd Jerseys In The NHL
For NHL teams, third jerseys are huge cash cows. That’s because gullible hockey fans (like myself) will go out and buy the third jersey replicas the day they are released, even though they already own their teams’ “regular” jerseys. On top of that, historic franchises (like the Rangers or Maple Leafs) can change up these [...]

I’m not sure if Brendan Smith of the Detroit Red Wings is a big fan of Brendan Shanahan, but he will get to meet the former Red Wing in person as he has been summoned for a hearing with the NHL’s head disciplinarian following a brutal hit to the head of the Chicago Blackhawks’ Ben [...]

Jonathan Toews Runs A Kid Over At Hockey Camp (Video)
Many minor hockey leagues in Canada have decided to introduce checking to the sport at an early age.

Will Someone Please Get Dan Carcillo The Vancouver Canucks’ Updated Roster (Video)
After signing Dan Carcillo to a one-year contract on July 1st, the Chicago Blackhawks introduced him to the media a few days ago, and the former member of the Flyers wasted little time fitting in with his new team.

Jonathan Toews’ Girlfriend Gabrielle Velasquez Is A Smokeshow (Gallery)
Cameras caught Jonathan Toews at the Cubs game on Sunday, and he brought a friend. No, that friend was not linemate Patrick Kane. It was his girlfriend, Gabrielle Velasquez. Although Towes and Velasquez did get some camera time, we were left unsatisfied and wanting to see more of the Blackhawks captain’s blonde bombshell. Now we [...]

Vancouver Fans Celebrate In The Streets Following Game 7 Victory (Video)
In Vancouver they celebrate first round victories like most other National Hockey League cities would celebrate Stanley Cup victories.

Picture Of The Day: F U Partick Kane!
After Jonathan Toews tied the game with less than two minutes left in regulation during Game 7 last night, it appeared as though Patrick Kane would once again be giving a big “F U” to the fans in Vancouver.

The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/26/11 — Roberto Luongo
We could have given this honor to the Canadiens’ Carey Price, whose 31 save performance helped push their series to seven games. Or we could have given it to Alex Burrows, who scored both Canucks goals last night. Both players would have been worthy candidates of the “Stat Line of the Night,” but there was [...]
