Homer’s Do’s and Doh’s: Richards Trade v. Carter Trade and Richards Trade v. Nodl Waiver Loss

Paul Holmgren became the interim General Manager of the Philadelphia Flyers on October 22, 2006. That interim title was removed only weeks later on November 11. Holmgren was able to take a team that finished last in the National Hockey League, and rebuild it to make a deep run all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals the very next season. Yes, some of Holmgren’s moves have been amazing, but he’s also a guy who has gotten this organization into some hot water with the salary cap and was forced to make deals that were head scratchers to say the least. If you enjoyed …

Hockey Hilarity: Stay Away From Fake Coatsey’s Corner

Friday funnies brought to you straight from hockey’s own players and media personnel. We’ll be mucking it up every week right here, examining puck ups, puns, tweets, and more! This lockout is the worst, but one of the best fake Twitter accounts out there is Fake Steve Coates. Usually the tweets consist of having one too many Amstels or not enough Amstels or something equally inappropriate, kinda like this one:   Eh, it made me laugh. Anyway, please follow that account for other ridiculous things that I’m sure will be posted. Does anyone read this anymore? See all y’all next week.

Hockey Hilarity: u good!!

Friday funnies brought to you straight from hockey’s own players and media personnel. We’ll be mucking it up every week right here, examining puck ups, puns, tweets, and more! Happy Friday everybody! It’s unfortunate that the National Hockey League is still in full-on lockout-mode, with no plans to meet, and an apparent moratorium on negotiations has been suggested or put into effect or whatever. Seriously I don’t even care anymore, just get the game back on the ice, alright? Anyway, I guess without the lockout, what you’re about to see wouldn’t have happened. It’s basically just a bunch of tweets from Scott Hartnell, which …
