Well, it sort of was a fight.
Okay, so maybe it was one punch and a bunch of woofing.
Take a look what happened when Dalton Prout of the Columbus Blue Jackets got tangled up with Milan Lucic of the Boston Bruins Friday night.
Some pushing, some shoving and a little dosey-do. Words are exchanged and Prout throws one punch. And down goes Lucic.
He didn't stay down long, got up and barked back and forth with Prout as both were ushered off the ice.
Lucic's teammates got the last laugh as Boston left with a 4-3 overtime win...

Scott Hartnell Does Not Like Jordan Nolan
((HT: NESN/647 Hockey Vids))
Scott Hartnell is no fan of Jordan Nolan and the LA Kings in their early contest today with Columbus...
The HQ will stipulate that Nolan is a pest. It is something he is very good at...
Like today...
Watch for it...
The HQ suspects there may be a talking-to from Messrs. Pronger and Shanahan for both Nolan and Hartnell.
But, regardless of the numbers, stick swinging is too dangerous at any moment...
Last thing we need is another one is these incidents...

Things You Can't Unsee: Fat Hockey Fan Makes Fool of Himself
((ht: brobible.com))
Oh boy....this video kind of defies explanation and in some ways is really sad. It's made the rounds, but we are sharing it anyway.
Check out what happened Saturday night when a Columbus Blue Jackets fan named Kevin Schroeder pulls off his shirt, starts dancing and then pours a beer on himself.
And it gets better, he starts dancing with the Labatt (Beer) Bear...
Thanks for perpetuating a stereotype there Kev...
Yikes!

What's With All The Unanswered Goals...???
((HT: NHL/NBCSN))
The HQ thought that when the Pittsburgh Penguins had the 3-goal FIRST PERIOD lead on the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide, that it was over and done...
Yeah, so much for that idea...
CBJ scored once in the first, once in the second, and Brandon Dubinsky scored with less than a minute to go in regulation to send the game into overtime...
We all know what happens with momentum by that point...
Ask Nick Foligno...
That series is now tied at two and the Penguins fans are gripping over another post-season performance by goalie Marc-Andre Fleury.
The other two series that went last night are also tied at two games a piece...
Anaheim had a two-goal lead in Dallas in Dallas, but that didn't last, either...
The Stars scored four in a row and the series between the Ducks and Stars has gotten all serious. There was a a lot of "quien es mas macho" in the last few minutes between the two sides. Play-by-play man Gord Miller had the line describing how the series has gotten all in each other's grills, saying that the two have evolved into hatred...
He's not wrong...
The late game (and "who knew?" right...???) would end up being the Blackhawks and Blues...
It would end shortly before 1AM east coast time, but overtime will do that for you...
Patrick Kane would help us all get to bed earlier than we thought in the third series tied at 2...
Tonight, the Sharks try to knock off the Kings once and for all...
Much to the dismay of the HQ...

DEVELOPING: Stars' Peverley Collapses On Bench, Game Postponed (UPDATED)
((HT: FS Southwest/NHL))
Dallas Stars C/RW Rich Peverley collapsed on the bench early in tonight's game at home against the Columbus Blue Jackets...
Back in September, Peverley had a procedure administering to an irregular heartbeat that caused him to miss most of the preseason.
From Mark Stepneski and the Dallas Stars in September:
We sent him to a specialist and it ended up he had an A-fib condition (atrial fibrillation), which is where the heart gets out of rhythm,” said Stars GM Jim Nill. “He had a procedure done. He’s going to be out for three weeks and should be available close to the start of the season, might miss one or two games.”
Nill said it was his understanding that procedure involved shocking the heart to get it back in rhythm. Peverley will be able to skate for the next weeks, but no contact.
“Our medical staff did a great job, they recognized this,” Nill said. “That’s why they do the medical procedures, they picked it up on the EKG and he’ll be fine.“
The issues came back and forced Peverley to miss a game last week...
Here's the action from the bench at the time...
2120 UPDATE: The game was postponed after a discussion with the teams and the league, but the HQ gives a tip of the hat to the Stars medical staff for responding the way they did...
According to Stars medical staff, Peverley was defibrillated successfully and wanted to go back into the game...

NHL Lords Of Discipline Just Got Busier
((HT: NHL/NBCSN))
First, Patrick Kaleta got a ten-game suspension for this hit on CBJ defenseman Jack Johnson...
Now, it looks like the Blues Maxim Lapierre should be getting a notice from the league office in Toronto after this movement against the Sharks' Dan Boyle this evening...
The larger question being will Lapierre match Kaleta's number even if the reputations and histories don't...
Boyle was alert on his way to hospital...

HOCKEY: Tootoo and Boll scrap after just three seconds
COLUMBUS - There are a lot of hockey fans that go to games just to see the fights. Well, those fans at the Columbus Blue Jackets' home opener Monday night had to wait just three seconds for what they wanted.
Columbus enforcer Jared Boll and new Detroit Red Wing Jordin Tootoo dropped gloves immediately after the face-off, trading blows in front of a delirious Blue Jacket crowd.
“When (Tootoo) is on the ice, he’s got a job to do. You just want to make sure he doesn’t run around and knows that this is our rink. That’s my job," Boll told the Columbus Dispatch after the game. “They obviously wanted to get momentum, and we wanted to get momentum. There was a huge crowd tonight, and I wanted to get (the fans) into it right away.”
Check out the video of the fight...Boll definitely got the best of Tootoo...
The Red Wings were looking to the former Nashville Predator Tootoo to create a spark, after losing their season opener 6-1 to the St. Louis Blues.
The final result: the Blue Jackets lost 4-3 in a four-round shootout before a standing-room-only crowd of 19,206 in Nationwide Arena. I guess Boll won the fight, but Tootoo and the Red Wings won the war...

NHL Looking At Kings-CBJ Ending
((HT: NHL/FSBlueJackets))
Here's the end of the Kings-Blue Jackets game from the other night...
And there seems to be a BIG problem with the ending...
So, the issue is the freezing of the clock...
Would Doughty have scored if the clock was continuous...???
That's the ending question...
And here's the Commish addressing the topic on his radio show...
((HT: NHL/SiriusXMHomeIce))
But the larger question...??? The HQ thinks you can't have a do-over, can you...???
No make-goods... right...???
Colin Campbell, the NHL's senior executive vice president of hockey operations, said to the folks at ESPN:
"When it crosses the line [and] you review it, you back the puck out and you see what the clock was. And the clock was 0.4 [seconds]. And then after the game, minutes after the game, we see [it and say], 'Holy cow.'"

Did Ovie Spit On Dorsett...???
Columbus enforcer Derek Dorsett is saying Ovechkin did down below...
((HT: CSNWashington))
“I haven’t told many people this, but he spit in my face,” Dorsett told The Columbus Dispatch. “That got me a little more mad.”
Ovechkin, of course, denied it...
“No, no, no. I don’t know. Show me that moment, I want to see it. No."
The HQ would just like to ask: What does it say about an enforcer if he's complaining that one of the league's stars did something to him...???
Don't those guys do their own thing to settle scores...???
Jus' axin'...

BREAKING: Arena Deal Reached For CBJ To Stay
((HT: WBNS-TV))
The Blue Jackets have agreed to remain in Columbus after a deal was reached between the city, state and Franklin County ((OH)) to buy Nationwide Arena, according to WBNS-TV.
The arena, which will still be called Nationwide Arena, will be managed by the Franklin County Facilities Authority.
The Blue Jackets said that the franchise was losing $12 million ((and has reportedly lost close to US$80M since the lockout ended six years ago)). Part of the blame is pointed at the lease agreement on Nationwide- which is privately financed to begin with.
The Columbus Chamber of Commerce released a report in late 2009 that the Blue Jackets' continuing financial losses could result in the team's departure from the city.
Considering the current climate, that would have been an easy thought. But the location for relocation is, and always will be, the question as the only markets ready to support hockey regularly are Canadian markets.
The HQ would like to congratulate the powers that are to keep CBJ around...
