Is This A Birthday Suit?

When the SPHL's Huntsville Havoc announced that they were changing their logos for this season, I wasn't sure what to expect. After all, how does one design "Havoc" as a logo? While they had a somewhat tame logo for the last few seasons, I never expected them to go back to a cartoonish logo like the one to the left, but that's what they unveiled before the start of this season. Maybe it's more appealing to kids and families, but we're not here to talk about this logo because the Huntsville Hav...

Today In NHL History - Brad May's Disallowed Goal

KHL Shifts Its All-Star Format

Despite its former claims of hockey excellence, the KHL quickly became the league of complete irrelevance. No longer are they attracting stars with wild contracts, no longer are they claiming to be a rival of the NHL, and I doubt we're going to see the KHL dig its way out of the political and socio-economical turmoil that its host country finds itself in, but anything could happen with better leadership. I say that while referencing both the country and the hockey league, but the main reason i...
