Video: Evgeni Malkin is Answer on Jeopardy or Who Needs a Publicist?
Who needs a publicist more Evgeni Malkin or the NHL? Seriously? When you have three college kids on Jeopardy unaware who won the scoring title last year, the NHL has a problem. They even gave them the hint “GENO”. You would think in the last five years winning two scoring titles, league MVP, playoff MVP, a Stanley Cup and being tied for the scoring lead in the...

Marc-André Fleury: A quandary for Pittsburgh, a headache for Canada

Penguins fan with gross team spirit
I… I really don’t even know what to say about this. How the hell does one even have that much body hair to do something like this?

Hell, this probably isn’t even the weirdest body hair arrangement at the game tonight.
Vokoun starting in goal for Penguins
The Pittsburgh Penguins are sticking with goaltender Tomas Vokoun for Game 1 of their second-round playoff series against Ottawa on Tuesday.
