One of them this year makes me laugh.
The nominees:
Jason Blake - He was diagnosed with leukemia at the beginning of the season and played 82 games while getting cancer treatments.
Fernando Pisani - He suffered from ulcerative colitis at the beginning of the regular season. I’ve read up on this, and apparently a lot of people [...]

Game 1 is tonight guys! For all of you going to the watching party at AAC, have lots of fun for me! I’ll be watching the game while I study for my stats final… doesn’t sound nearly as much fun as being at the AAC.

There hasn’t been a lot worthwhile to update about though… Stars lost to Detroit on Thursday and they lost again to Vancouver last night. I guess they’re just getting into [...]

The Lightning play the Leafs tonight. Hopefully the Bolts can get their first win with the new guys. I really think Smitty played well Wednesday night, but he had absolutely no support out there from his defensemen. Apparently Tortorella wants Jeffy to score more goals than he was scoring in Dallas. Hopefully he’ll get another one [...]
