Brett Favre vs. Mats Sundin: Who's worse?

Favre and Sundin have a lot in common: both are legends in their cities, both were universally respected, and both have been playing a controversial game of "will-he-or-won't-he" for months that may see them jump to a rival team. But the two cases aren't the same -- one is far worse.

The Love Guru: Fact vs. Fiction  

The Love Guru opens today. As a big budget Hollywood blockbuster, the film will no doubt be seen by a lot of non-hockey fans. This is great news for the NHL, which needs all the publicity it can get. However, as with any movie the Hollywood version has taken some liberties with reality. Movie goers may be left with some false impressions about the NHL in general and the Toronto Maple Leafs in specific. To avoid confusion, Down Goes Brown attempts to sort out fact and fiction.

Great Obscure Moments in Leafs History - Everything that happened immediately after the Clark-McSorley fight  

A Leaf fan spends a little too much time breaking down the immediate aftermath of the infamous Wendel Clark - Marty McSorley fight from the 1993 playoffs. Everything is covered, from McSorley assaulting a cameraman, to a fan throwing a crutch on the ice, to the guy in the pink shirt and acid wash jeans giving the Kings bench the finger.

The Memorial Cup trophy has been handed to the winner of the junior hockey championship since 1919 in honour of those who died in the First World War. As the video clip on this blog demonstrates, Spokane captain Chris Bruton has apparently decided to put a stop to all that.

When hockey fans attack: hockey-reference.com sponsorship hijinks

Now that hockey-reference.com is accepting sponsorships on player and team pages, most of the response has been predictable. But not all of it -- some fans have slapped down a few bucks to have some fun with certain players.

Find out what's been done to Jaromir Jagr, Wayne Gretzky, Carey Price and others. And us know if you've seen any we missed.

If the Maple Leafs made their own brand of beer

Richard Peddie and the rest of the clowns at MLSE haven't had much luck building a successful hockey team. Would they do any better if they were in the beer business?

Senators pre-game speech disaster  

It's hard to choose the best part. His helmet almost falling off? His mic cutting out? The speech taped to the inside of his shield?

Truly has to be seen to be believed.

The Ottawa Senators: A tradition of... not having their own traditions  

From Sens Mile to the White Out to calling themselves "Hockey Country", the Ottawa Senators have a proud history of stealing other teams' traditions and ruining them. Here's a recap of some of their greatest thefts.

The Ottawa Sun's Don Brennan has lost his mind

Fresh off his suggestion that Senators two-hand Sidney Crosby's ankle and subsequent attempt to pick a fight with Georges Laraque, the Ottawa Sun's Don Brennan is back with more quality journalism. This time, he explains why a high-stick to the head shouldn't be a penalty.

Why do we keep falling for NHL playoff injury stories?  

Sidney Crosby isn't hurt, he was just resting. Daniel Alfredsson is out two weeks, and it's his knee not his head. It's playoff time again, and as usual we're being fed plenty of stories by NHL teams. Why do keep falling for it?

Why Macleans Stinks - sidebar edition  

In the sidebar to their "Leafs Stink" hatchet job, Macleans lists the what they say are the seven worst trades in club history. But some of the trades they list weren't trades at all, and some of the rest have the details wrong. Who does the fact-checking at Macleans, Richard Peddie?

Why Maclean's stinks  

If you have been to the bathroom at your grandparents house in the last few days, you've probably seen something called a Maclean's Magazine sitting in a basket beside the toilet. This week, in a transparent attempt to seem relevant, they've taken aim at the Toronto Maple Leafs. Unfortunately, they have nothing to say that we haven't heard a hundred times before.
