I don’t know if it was the mic that kept going out or the one-size too big helmet this guy was sporting that made this video cheesy. Either way, this lame attempt at a 300 inspired rally brightened up my day.

You’d think that the Ottawa Senators could have thought of a little better way to pump up the crowd. The guy seemed like a bad version of the Ultimate Warrior.

Well, yesterday I brought to you the recent fight involving Patrick Roy’s son, Jonathon Roy, but the guys down at HeatensOnline.com took it one step further.

They compiled their own list of their Top 12 Goalie Fights and who else but Patrick Roy to make it on their twice. Including the top spot on the list versus Chris Osgood.

Goalie’s usually aren’t the ones to get in hockey fights, but when they do, they are quite the show.

Former NHL great Patrick Roy’s son, Jonathon Roy, dropped his gloves and bee-lined for the opponents goalie. I personally liked how the referee tried to hold him back, but eventually couldn’t contain him.

I mean, why does everyone else around him get to have fun and he doesn’t?

I tried to find of good video of Roy’s fight and the other brawls, but I had no luck. I found this one, but I apologize for the French dude. At least I think it’s French.

This goal by Rick Nash of the Columbus Blue Jackets is ridiculous. I had to share if you didn’t see it already. You can’t teach those moves.

Though this goal by Jonathan Toews of the Chicago Blackhawks is a close second.

It’s hard to believe that a kid can do this move. I’m impressed. But importantly, I’m more embarrassed that a 9-year-old can school me on the hockey rink. Maybe the Capitals can use this kid?

I don’t know whether to find this creepy or cool, but Schnepf Farms actually took the time, about seven months, to carve Phoenix Suns guard Steve Nash into a field of corn.

Well, the NHL preseason is underway and hockey wouldn’t be hockey if there weren’t any fights. So check out this rare goalie fight from last night’s game between the Islanders and Rangers.
Goalie fights to me are more amusing than anything. It’s like watching two uncoordinated fat kids in a slap fight. They have so much padding that you know neither of them are really going to get hurt.

According to Fox Sports, NHL star Jeremy Roenick is going to retire, but what’s even more surprising is that he announced it through a text message.

Roenick supposedly sent a text message to a reporter at The Philadelphia Inquirer that read, “I’m retiring; Is that still news?”

No word yet on whether or not this retirement is official. Apparently the newspaper was the first to know as the Coyotes had not known about the decision, although Roenick had stated last season that he may retire.

Check back later to see if it becomes official.
