The Kerrzy Report Shootout Snipes!
Posted by Kerrzy on Monday, April 13, 2009   
A couple of weeks ago, Linus Omark had the internet going nuts with his 'cheeky penalty' for Sweden during a shootout against Switzerland; but the bar has been raised.

First, Nicklas Lindberg of the International Hockey League's Port Huron Icehawks dazzled the hockey world with some behind-the-back magic, and then Mike Ribeiro got in on the dangle-fest with a shootout-winning goal last week, further raising the bar.

If you didn't see the initial goal, Oilers prospect-turned KHL player Linus Omark skates in at an angle, cuts across the front of the net and gets the goalie to bite with a simple deke – before lightly flicking the puck up and over the sprawling netminder...READ MORE...

The Kerrzy Report Callin' it a season?
Posted by Kerrzy on Thursday, March 19, 2009   
I've been meaning to bring this up ever since I started hearing it around the trade deadline - reporters accusing the Toronto Maple Leafs of callin' it a season early, in the hopes of landing Johnny T.

Now, John Tavares is probably worth all the hassle, but even if you finish low in the standings you’re not guaranteed to get first pick. Tavares finished his last OHL season with 58 goals and 104 points in just 56 games. Wow.

On TSN during the trade deadline coverage they were implying that the Leafs put Vesa Toskala on the shelf and brought in Marty Gerber to give the team even less of a chance of making the playoffs. (When you think about it, Toskala played the night before the deadline, practiced the morning of the deadline...but then was put on the IR...which is a little bit fishy).

Things sort of came to a head last Tuesday when Ron Wilson got into it with a reporter after Toronto's 3-2 overtime win over the NY Islanders...READ MORE...

The Kerrzy Report Downie in rare company
Posted by Kerrzy on Tuesday, March 10, 2009   
Remember Steve Downie?

The guy who faced a 20-game suspension in the NHL before even playing in his first regular season game is in trouble AGAIN!

A handful of players have been sat down for at least 20 games by the league but not many, if ANY, players have faced equal discipline in the American Hockey League as well…until now.

Steve Downie’s latest 20-game suspension came after he slashed an official after he dropped the puck on a face off. Yeah, not the smartest tool in the shed.

It happened late in a game between Downie’s Norfolk Admirals and the Hershey Bears on February 28th.

Some reports say the Bears player was chirpin’ the 21-year-old former first round pick of the Flyers and he was just trying to slash his stick. Other reports will make you think it was just an honest mistake…READ MORE...

The Kerrzy Report The race for the 'offs
Posted by Kerrzy on Friday, March 06, 2009   
Things are heating up in the Western Conference as the playoffs draw near – but what else is new?

Here’s the story in the West:

Looks like the Sharks and Wings will duke it out for first in the conference as the regular season winds down.

The Flames have big cushion in the Northwest division, but are a good distance back in the race for first overall.

Like always, the battle for the last few playoff spots is intense. As of Friday morning, the Oilers, Stars and Ducks are all tied for eighth with 68 points – but the Minnesota Wild are right behind them, one point back with at least a game in hand over each team. READ MORE...

The Kerrzy Report Close call for Ovie and Green?
Posted by Kerrzy on Thursday, February 26, 2009   
Occasionally professional athletes, like the rest of us, make dumb decisions.

Whether it’s NFL star Plaxico Burress facing jail time for shooting himself in the leg or Erik Johnson of the St. Louis Blues missing the entire season after falling off a golf cart during a team outing – sometimes these guys are just too much.

Here’s one that would have had Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis sweating.

In a clip from NHL.com (that you'll see on the next page), $15-million worth of hockey players and no doubt the future of the Caps just about get decapitated. READ MORE...
