Well, sources now tell the Philadelphia Daily News’ Frank Seravalli that the Predators are upping their asking price. Supposedly, they now want [...]
This picture is pretty funny. The United States beat Canada in ice hockey this past Sunday night in the Olympics and while it didn’t really equate to much, we thought it was a big deal. Yes, they outplayed us, but we scored more goals than they did.
But in the end…who really [...]

This is great. Wouldn’t you be a little more certain that your broad was going to say “yes” before you went and did this in front of a huge crowd and television audience?

The Philadelphia Flyers are going to start Michael Leighton in goal tonight despite the fact that they’ve lost his last two starts.
