OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

I wonder if today's Tribune sports' section came stained with the tears of David Haugh.

Marcus Kruger scheduled to skate tonight. He's basically Dave Bolland without that whole losing faceoffs thing.

I'd say Yay, but not DAMN RIGHT YAY.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

He was 45% in the SEL. Not exactly Yanic Perreault but not disgraceful.

Anyway, he's a two way guy so hopefully people don't expect a hattie in his first game.

He compares favorably to a young [Insert Swedish center's name].

QuoteDetroit Red Wings forward Todd Bertuzzi will not face any further disciplinary action for his hit on Chicago forward Ryan Johnson in Monday night's game.

"I talked to the league – no suspension for Bert," Wings general manager Ken Holland said this morning.

Bertuzzi was ejected after getting a five-minute elbowing major 5:17 into the 3-2 overtime loss. Bertuzzi hit Johnson just as he'd played the puck, catching him with an elbow even as Bertuzzi backed off the hit. Johnson's helmet flew off as he fell to the ice.

Johnson continued to play and was adamant afterwards that Bertuzzi didn't intend to cause injury. Bertuzzi sought out Johnson while he was getting minor treatment immediately after the incident.

"I don't think it was malicious," Johnson said. "He was very apologetic. He came in here."

When it comes to head shots, should the distinction between "malicious" and "reckless" really make all that much difference?

Especially when talking about Bertuzzi.

The shame of it is he wasted a move like that to beat Andrew Raycroft.
