Open season on Head Coaches?

Leino involved with this story? Oh, the irony.

Hong Kong? I laugh.

He was one of the few Sabres who hasn't been injured this season...until now.

Sayonara.

From NHL:

C'mon, commercials!

Oiler fans will expect this out of him all the time now. Kevin Lowe might have to turn to the Magic 8 Ball for advice.

Kovulchuck must have a different trainer than Hudler does.

This was another of example of Bettman's "labour negotiating skills", as it was forced on the players for the season following the lockout. I wonder if this issue was put to a vote of the membership if it would have passed.

Go, G-Men! Madge? Really?

Maybe Charlie "The Big Bomber" Conacher. According to Total Hockey, he replaced the injured "Tiny" Thompson on February 21, 1939. It was the last of three appearances in goal in his career (the first one replacing a penalized goalie, the other two replacing injured goalies), without allowing a goal in any of the games.
