Best Hockey Goal Ever

Sharks Win in Shootout after Crazy Overtime

You hardly see hockey posts here, but this game was absolutely insane. San Jose score the first goal of the game, but then proceeded to give up four to the Flyers. They eventually battled back and tied the game up in the third. OVERTIME.

Skip to about the 4 minute mark. With the clock ticking down in OT, the Flyers took a shot just as the clock expired to win it. It went in, the crowd went nuts, the players celebrated. But upon further review, the puck did not cross the goal line before time had expired, in fact a clear shot shows the puck head of the red goal line with the clock at 0.0.

Sharks would eventually win it in a shootout, 5-4.

That. Was... AWESOME!!

As you'll see in the following video, Keith Ballard of the Atlanta Thrashers Florida Panthers is quite upset with himself about the goal that was just scored on his team.

Or is he actually upset with his goalie? You be the judge!



Okay no, he was just upset with himself. But he has some awful aim. I know whose name I wouldn't enter into the All Star Game skills competition.

This is When Hockey Becomes Fun

Rangers coach John Tortorella threw a plastic drinking bottle over the glass and into the stands during a confrontation with a fan in the third period of New York's 4-0 loss to the Washington Capitals on Friday night, according to multiple media reports.

Tortorella and a man standing behind the Rangers' bench were seen yelling at each other with about 13½ minutes left in the game. After Tortorella heaved the green plastic bottle, he grabbed Aaron Voros' hockey stick and held it high, waving it in the fan's direction before assistant coach Jim Schoenfeld stepped in to calm him.

A TV replay of the episode did not show whether anything was thrown at Tortorella, but there were reports a cup of liquid was tossed over the bench at him, and he was seen using a towel to wipe off his suit. [ESPN]
