Poor, poor David Clarkson.
And poor us as well.
That’s why you stand up and face a Zdeno Chara slapshot head-on rather than wimping out and turning sideways. Of course, I say this behind a laptop, and not on ice staring down the barrel of a 100 MPH slapshot from the guy who broke Al MacInnis’ fastest [...]

Good news: I haven’t been too lazy to post lately, just too busy. Bad news: That doesn’t change much this week.
Good news: The Devils attempt to tie the NHL record for consecutive road wins to start the season tonight in Philadelphia. Bad news: The game’s on Versus, so if you have DirecTV (like me), you’re [...]
