Your First KHL Nutty Of The Season

((HT: KHL their own selves))

HC Ugra goalie Mikhail Biryukov looked like he was standing on his head to keep his team in the game against CSKA Moscow in the third period the other day. But his team eventually lost 4-3 and Biryukov lost it on his own...


The HQ's favorite part is the difficulty that he had in trying to snap his stick after the final buzzer...

Halak Had A Hell Of A Time In Net

((HT: Sportsnet/MSG))

Jaroslav Halak had one of those nights... as did Blues goalie Brian Elliott...

The New Jersey Devils were in the process of blowing out the St. Louis Blues last night 7-1 when Eric Gelinas let this shot go...

“I saw the puck,” Halak told reporters postgame. “I knew the guy was going to dump it in the corner. He shot it and unfortunately it went off Petro’s pants. I tried to get in front of the puck, but it hit my stick and went over me. It just went in.”

OSG Prem: Why Soccer Goalies Shouldn't Handle the Ball

If you are an English Premiere League Soccer fan, you may have seen this actually happen in real time. If you are a soccer fan, you may…or may not have seen this early on a fall Saturday morning.

If you are a sports fan, this is just kinda funny.

Check out what happened early in the Arsenal/Southampton game Saturday morning. Around the 21 minute mark, Southampton goalie Artur Boric tries to go and corral the ball in the goal area, but gets challenged by Arsenal's Olivier Giroud.

Boric vainly tries to shake Giroud, but it doesn't go so well. Giroud ends up plucking it from him and waltzes in for the very easy goal to make it 1-0.

Arsenal won 2-0...
