Will making headlines like those ever get old? Discuss.

Blues down the Blackhawks 3-0. Halak grabs the shutout, while Oshie, Shattenkirk and Jackman came away with 2 points a piece. Shattenkirk's passing is just, like... wow, man. [NHL]

The Islanders are debuting their latest ugly jersey a week from today. It's a shitty attempt to look like the black New York Mets alternate. Why, Islanders? Why? [Icethetics]

- First, Iginla should lose his visor when he fights, then we’ll talk…

- NHL.com has the Backes hit on Toews and the Reaves hit on Kane, but not Vodka’s reverse hit on Scott, unfortunately. They never took the time during the TV broadcast to replay it :(

- Reaves-Carcillo fight (http://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/106575) wasn’t super memorable, but you have to love Reave’s transition from grappling to right-handed bombs early on. Who else here thinks that Carcillo completely over-exaggerated the “spear” to try to draw a call?

I feel bad for Iginla, though.. he was getting mugged by three Minnesota guys after the whistle and it took forever for anyone else on his line to jump in and back him up.

I was there to watch it in person, and as someone who watches Ovechkin pretty much every game, that was an amazing play. Put the game out of reach (not that it was in reach before that…)

Winnipeg? Winnipeg??? Oy! (And now it's official...)

If putting the word "Cock" in a headline is wrong, then I don't want to be right.
