The Stat Line Of The Night – 12/29/10 – Rick DiPietro
There were some pretty terrific individual performances coming from the two major sports leagues that were active last night.

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night – Hordichuk vs. Rupp – 12/22/10
The Pittsburgh Penguins’ Michael Rupp decided to give the knuckles of fellow tough guy Deryk Engelland a day off last night as he stepped in and took on Florida Panthers’ enforcer Darcy Hordichuk. However, he was probably regretting that decision after taking some vicious rights from Hordichuk, including a final shot that sent him to [...]

Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night – Down Goes Pyatt – 12/20/10
I’m not sure what Taylor Pyatt was thinking when he dropped the gloves with Deryk Engelland, but he was probably regretting that decision after getting leveled by a stiff right hand from the Pens’ enforcer. Engelland has already taken down the likes of Colton Orr, Jody Shelley and Chris Neil, among others, and last night [...]

I was about to give this honor to just Evgeni Malkin, but then I took a look at the highlights and upon witnessing the two assist from Sidney Crosby that led to Malkin’s two goals, I had to split this honor between both Penguins superstars. Although, it doesn’t appear as though these two mind sharing [...]

There are plenty of players throughout the National Hockey League that would love to get their hands on Rangers super-pest Sean Avery. Last night the Penguins’ Arron Asham was given that opportunity. Unfortunately for all the Avery haters out there (and believe me when I say there are plenty of them), he was unable to [...]

Bruce Boudreau’s F-Bomb Tirade Can Now Be Seen On HBO’s 24/7 Series (Video)
The Washington Capitals have failed to record a win in their last seven games and those following the team are beginning to think that perhaps coach Bruce Boudreau has lost his players. If that were the case, it wouldn’t come as much of a surprise to me. After hearing the Caps’ bench-boss speak to his [...]

Earlier in the season we brought you an edition of the “Frozen Fisticuffs Fight of the Night” that featured the Pittsburgh Penguins’ Deryk Engelland delivering a one-punch knockout to the Maple Leafs’ Colton Orr.

Sidney Crosby’s Highlight Reel Assist (Video)
Not many players in the league can turn a bad pass into a great dangle that leads to a highlight reel assist, but Sidney Crosby certainly can. That was exactly what the Penguins’ captain did last night during a game against the New Jersey Devils. Skating full speed down the left side of the boards, [...]

Sidney Crosby’s Amazing Puck-Pyramid Trick (Video)
Sidney Crosby is nothing short of magnificent with the puck on his stick. The guy is a magician on ice. If that wasn’t already evident following his slap-shot-net-adjustment drill, it is now after watching him pick off pucks along the ledge of the boards with his shot. Knocking off that pyramid is cool and all, [...]

Hockey Nets Fear Sidney Crosby’s Slapshot (Video)
After watching this video of Sidney Crosby testing his new Reebok 11k SicKick Stick, the first thing you will probably ask yourself is, “Do goalies seriously get in front of that shot?” After checking out the new lumber’s stick handling abilities, he lines up a few pucks and begins his own version of a firing [...]

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 [...]
