The big man in the middle, Mr. Jeffrey Carter. Jeff’s a known commodity. Get him on the ice, and he’ll make things happen. Jeff Carter’s girlfriend Megan Keffer is another one of those compassionate souls who help out dogs. There’s a lot of these ladies out there. I’m starting to think there’s a real correlation between women who date athletes and helping dogs. It’s a good thing though– no complaints! Megan’s also got a good…
The NHL lockout has been a depressing couple of months for hockey fans. With games being called off daily, and our favorite players heading to Europe for their paycheck, the outlook for any NHL action in Canada and the States is looking bleaker by the day. For the players holding out hope at home, what is there left to do? You can work out and train, but everyone knows there’s nothing that can really match…
UPDATE 07/05/2013: After plenty of patience, waiting and countless nail biting games in the stands, Ines Dominic is now Anze Kopitar’s wife. The two were married in a lavish ceremony in Ljublijana, Slovenia’s Otocec castle. Anze and Ines Kopitar invited family, friends, teammates,… and Kings celebrity super fan, Matthew Perry. Congratulations to the newlyweds. After scoring a game-winning overtime goal in game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals, Anze Kopitar finds himself at the center…
While The Great One might be considered one of if not the greatest NHL player of all time I’m going to say his biggest contribution just might be his daughter Paulina Gretzky. I don’t think any of us should be surprised that Wayne Gretzky and his wife Janet Jones (always considered one of the hottest couples in sports) would give us such a gift. As if that wasn’t enough Paulina also appears to be a…
It’s been a long time since hockey mattered in Los Angeles. You can probably trace the mass fan exodus back to the Gretzky exodus, which is also the last time that the Kings ever really put anything resembling a decent hockey team on the ice. You could seriously argue that the LA Galaxy were more popular than the Kings recently. Slowly that is changing as the LA Kings are becoming “hip” again and a lot…
We can’t talk about Jonathan Quick and his wife Jaclyn without bringing in New York Islanders Forward Matt Moulson and his wife Alicia. Jonathan Quick’s wife, Jaclyn Backman and Alicia are sisters. That my friends would make Jonathan and Matt brothers-in-law. So while a Los Angeles Kings vs. New York Islanders matchup wouldn’t be must see TV for most fans, it certainly would be for the Backman family. Jonathan and Jaclyn grew up together in…
03/01/2012: Apparently pancakes can’t keep a marriage together forever. Jessica Welch has filed for divorce, leaving her second professional hockey playing husband, citing irreconcilable differences. There has been no word from either camp on the divorce proceedings (nor would we expect one). The couple was married for a little over a year and has no children together. Well, this is new: “Apparently it’s one of those mysterious things, where you can throw it out (from)…
