Reactionary Reactionism

The GM meeting is happening in sunny Boca Raton – if ever there was a location that stereotyped the NHL leadership, it's a golfing resort in southern Florida. Did no one think to suggest that maybe the location of the Golden Girls would only reinforce the idea that the NHL executive is past it's expiration date? Geography aside, the big news today is Bettman's 5-point plan otherwise known as, reactionary reactionism. Too little, too late Bettman, no amount of Office Space jargon, or powerpoint presentation lingo is going to change public opinion of you or your Vice President and Director of Hockey Operations who you affectionately call "Colie". I know I am nitpicking here, but I don't call my co-workers "Newty" or "Nady" or any other amalgamation of their last name with the letter "Y". It again just plays into the thought that Bettman is running an old...

Wild Night in the NHL

I could talk about the Habs 3-2 win over the Panthers, but being at the game was tortuous enough, I don't want to relive the chippiest, unflow-y game ever. There were far more interesting story lines last night. Firstly, Brent Johnson KO on DiPietro.

Morning After – Oilers

There were two massive breakdowns at about the 10 minute mark of the third period last night, 1-it started snowing, so I lost my signal for the game. and 2-The Montreal Canadiens.... As my friend relayed to me on Twitter, the timeline of both failures was very interesting. Maybe it was a higher power trying to shield my rose coloured Habs glasses from the worst breakdown of the season, but whatever it was, I am secretly thankful I not only missed the Habs blowing a two-goal lead in the third, I also missed one of my favorite players deciding he didn't want to play hockey anymore, and letting Dustin Penner skate away for the OT Goal. I am of course talking about Mike Cammalleri.

The Habs lost last night, but I liked what I saw. Eller, a great last minute rush, Boyd, Halpern and yes..Price. Sure he had a rough start, but he pulled it together enough to make a huge save against Kessle in the third. Sadly, this morning I inevitably woke up to ridiculous headlines and =accompanying photos were of course of Price. Can the media simmer down for one moment?

Recent Hockey F***ups

I'm tired of reading about Carey Price, talking about Carey Price, and analyzing glorified scrimmages. So instead of summing up yet another game where only eight or so legitimate NHLers dressed, I thought I would take a look back into recent history and list my favorite hockey fuck-ups. I have no specific time period or order. These are just five great terrible moments that sprung to mind as I began writing.

2010-2011 Head Shot Rule

The NHL released a video to all 30 clubs today outlining the new head shot rule, as well as clarifying rules for other forms of contact. I love that they did this, and I love that the NHL made the video public so the entire fan base can inform themselves on these rules.
