Broadstreet Bullies Back in Action

So I log on to TSN.ca to check the latest scores and what do I find? Another article about a Flyer slamming a Bruins player into the boards. This time it was Scott Hartnell rubbing Andrew Alberts face into the boards while Alberts was sliding on his knees.

It was a supposed grudge match between the teams after Randy Jones knocked Patrice Bergeron out of the game on October 27th. This was not long after Jesse Boulerice tried to KO Ryan Kesler with his stick. Oh, and remember before that it was Steve Downie going airborn on Dean McAmmond.

There has to be some supplemental discipline to the team this time. Four times before the halfway point of the season is far more than a coincidence.

The Neil Show Interviews TSN's James Duthie

The Neil Show at nhldigest.com recently sat down with TSN panel host James Duthie. In typical style, Duthie has some humourous comments mixed in with some solid hockey thoughts.

If you watch the TSN hockey panel and don't think that Duthie is the glue holding the group together...what show are you watching?

Pinky and the Brain Twins

Ok, thoughts about the Ohlund slash aside, Derek Boogard has come up with the line of the month for sure. When asked about what would happen the next time the Wild and Canucks meet, he stated:
"Maybe I can go and check Naslund or those Pinky and the Brain twins."

Ah, Pinky and the Brain. One is a genius, the others insane. They're laboratory mice, they're genes have been spliced, etc, etc. What a great show and what a great reference to a couple creepy looking, yet insanely skilled Swedish twins.
