Since the buzz in the hockey world is getting ready for the Draft and the 2012-2013 regular season and contracts are being signed and negotiated, there is not much going on but I will keep you guys informed on all and any hockey news that comes up in the summer and the blogs will get closer together and more packed with the start of the pre-season schedule which is going to be September 24th for the Pittsburgh Penguins against the Columbus Blue Jackets, just so all of my Penguins fans know!!! As you all know the NHL Awards were yesterday and there were many winners and memeorable moments. For example we had Henrik Lundqvist's f-bomb in his Vezina Trophy speech, Evgeni Malkin's touching speeches for all three of the trophies he won, Claude Giroux winning the NHL 13 vote, Shane Doan, Mike Fisher, and Daniel Alfredsson being recognized for their great acts of kindness in the hockey world and in their communities, Will Arnett's skit on Brendan Shanahan's penalty giving, and finally, no one being able to pronounce Geno's name! It was quite a night!! Here are the results of the winners just in case you missed the show:
Norris Trophy: Erik Karlsson

Fight of the Year Biscuits and Breezers        Before I move on to anymore news, I wanted to feature a fight that I think should be up for a fight of the year in the WSHL. This scrap was between a beast from Missoula and a goon from Seattle. That's right Austin Azzinnaro and Piers LaFrance battled it out in Missoula's last home game and it was amazing. You should have seen these two go at it!

Zaleski is the perfect player seeing that he has the ideal combinations of aggressive and physical plays, speed, and can score whenever it needs be. I have seen some pretty aggressive players in my time but Jamie Zaleski is the definition of aggression out on the ice. His hits are almost always cle
