Rob Ray vs. Josef Melichar



It actually happened.(Please visit the site to view this media) This fight took place early in the 2001-02 season accordingto Hockeyfights.com.We don't know what's more pathetic; Melichar's fightingability or those hideous red Sabres jerseys.EMPTY NETTER ASSISTS Penguins-The Penguins' Web sitehas some schedule wallpapers available. (Kudos to The SidneyCrosby Showfor spotting that.)Atlantic Division-Islanders goaltender Rick DiPietro sounds like he's readyfor a new season.-Today's.nhl owner with some legal issues is the Islanders'Charles Wang.-In case you missed out on Ben Roethlisberger's Denali,Devils forward Zach Parise has an old Tahoe up for sale.Northeast Division-Former Flames forward Stephane Yelle signed with the Bruins.-The Canadiens are investigating playing an outdoor game in2009.-The Sabres added two minority owners.-Former Maple Leafs captain Mats Sundin will not make up hismind on coming back to a.nhl injury list in 2008-09 until after the season starts.Southeast Division-Capitals prospect Chris Bourque, the son of.nhlhall-of-famer Ray Bourque, is determined to play in the.nhl this season.-Former Lightning goaltender Pat Jablonski suffered a backinjury while body surfing.By the sounds of things, Jablonski was surfing off the coast of Floridain the Gulf of Mexico the same day Hurricane Gustav wasdoing its thing. Charles Darwinnot available for comment.Central Division-The Predators will only have 55 games on local televisionnext season.-Here's another reason to love the Stanley Cup: It gives youan excuse to skip school.Northwest Division-The.nhl ruled Oilers general manager Kevin Lowe did nottamper with Ducks forward Corey Perry.-Canucks enforcer Darcy Hordichuk won't be hanging out withMichael Vick anytime soon.Pacific Division-If the Ducks want to bring back Teemu Selanne, they need toclear some room under the salary cap.-The Coyotes will only have 61 games on local televisionnext season.If the.nhl wants to help some of its struggling teams in non-traditionalmarkets like Phoenix, Nashville, Miamior Raleigh,it might want to figure out a way to get more games on local television. Havingfewer than 75 games available on a local affiliate is sad. Could you imaginethe Penguins or the Wild or any Canadian team not having a game available ontelevision in some fashion?Adams Division-It didn't take former Islanders goon Chris Simon long toshow off his "talents" in the KHL:(Please visit the site to view this media)-Former Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins forward Darcy Verotdisplayed some of his abilities too:(Please visit the site to view this media) -Former Hurricanes forward Jeff Hamilton signed with theChicago Wolves of the AHL.Source
