If you're looking for a good Flames blog then we've got one for you. It's called Hit The Post. We think they're pretty funny and worth the read.

Since we stalk TSN.ca, we found this video of Fleury playing in his Kermit the Frog mask.

Video.

These are the rookies that NHL.com thinks are staying in the NHL. Article.

And then this is who TSN.ca thinks will stay. Article.

Rob Scuderi was fined for his hit on Jason Chimera. It was deemed to be a low and dangerous hit.

It was a pretty awesome hit.

The Avalanche love playing house with each other. Paul Stastny is housing a rookie in the form of TJ Galiardi. Then Adam Foote is keeping Matt Duchene in his basement. And Darcy Tucker is keeping Ryan O'Reilly as well.

"I know how 'Footy' took in 'Duch,' and 'Tucks' took in O'Reilly, but it's pretty funny how the guys talk about how Paulie took me in, when we're only two years apart."
- T.J. Galiardi

So cute.

Riley Cote likes to tattoo people. Would you trust this man with putting permanent ink in your skin? We don't think we would.

GASP! Kris Letang cut his hair!!! OH NOES!!!!!


Just kidding. Do we care? Not really. Noodles thinks it looks better but LeTude is distraught and so are most of the Lemangs.

Another victim of the Swine Flu is Ladislav Smid. We wish that hockey boys would stop making out with each other. STOP SPREADING THE VIRUS BY KISSING, IDIOTS!!!

Putting aside his true feelings, Carey Price tells the media that it's okay that Jaroslav Halak stole "his" starting role.

We know how he really feels...

We knew it.

Do you think it's a coincidence that Alexander Semin returns and Alexander Ovechkin scores twice? We know that the second one was an empty-netter (go figure) but it still counts.

BTW

Brent Seabrook is playing and Marian Hossa practiced but Jonathan Toews did not practice and he's not going on the trip with the Hawks.

Everything's awesome except for Jonny, that just sucks. Willie Mitchell is on the shit-list as of right now.
