San Jose Sharks: Perennial chokers
Vinny Lecavalier: will not be traded for Brisebois and a 6th rounder no matter how much Montreal fans say it will happen
NHL Playoffs: going great until Detroit won
Knee-to-knee hits: most dangerous hit in the game, moreso than shoulder-to-head as those can at least be prevented by the "hittee"
Ruslan Fedotenko: The anti-Shark (see my first word association)
Scramble
Tomas Holmstrom

C, $56.29 (only 55 cents? Once I get the rest of my pucks sent up from my mom, I'll need to get myself some of those!)
