Top Lawyers Right to Reject Kovalchuk Deal
NHL Quick
Shots
by Josh Brewster
Kovalchuk’s deal included a full six seasons close to the League’s minimum
salary of $525,000... the deal was, for all intents and purposes, an 11-year
pact...If I owned an NHL club, I’d applaud my top lawyers for doing their jobs.
Bob
Probert Dead at 45
His most memorable season came in
1987-88, when he led the league with a whopping 398 penalty minutes yet
scored 29 goals and 62 points, a career-high. He also played in the NHL
All-Star Game that season.

Hockey Town Again:
Chicago Blackhawks Win the Stanley Cup
by Josh Brewster
The Blackhawks are number one in Chicago again, and will prove as much on
Friday, when they parade the Stanley Cup north on Michigan Boulevard in
America's most livable big city, where Hollywood flash means nothing and New
York crass earns you a punch in the face. The city of broad shoulders, a
beautiful lake and some terrible winters...a hockey town again.

The Washington Capitals are well on their
way to the Presidents Trophy for best regular season record. Washington also
leads the league in goals scored...Moving in for a closer look, it is clear all

At a glance, the battle for
