And oh how the enigmatic goaltender shines in the spotlight, much to the chagrin of the league. Bryzgalov is just what the NHL hates: unique, outspoken, not from Red Deer. The embattled and well-traveled goaltender is the antithesis of the typical NHLer. His idiosyncrasies, strange even for a goalie, rankle the entire NHL establishment, from players to management to media to that guy who lives in the apartment below yours with his mother who has a "prominent Predators blog." And as Bryz adds some animation to the typically lifeless NHL discourse in his return to centre scrum, its interesting to consider why hockey hates him so. [Getty Images] For much of his career, Bryzgalov and his delightfully absurd aloofness was left to the bliss of the uncovered hinterland of the NHL. He was allowed to ply his trade in Anaheim and Phoenix with relatively little attention paid. But, in league circles, his oddities were well known, and even celebrated when the media required moments of levity. But upon his arrival in hockey hotbed, and noted goalie-killer Philadelphia, the affection the league had for Bryzgalov turned quickly to venom. His play certainly didnt help, but many an average NHLer with a slight sense of humour has been left to his own devices. But Bryzgalovs appalling strangeness in the eyes of the hockey establishment, a sinister outfit run by old white men housed in a secret lair below the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, made him a pariah, and nearly led to the end of his career. And by "end of career" I mean playing in Edmonton. Perhaps no player has incurred the wrath of the NHL like the man the Wild acquired as insurance, and who is now their last hope to extend the season. But why? Unfortunately, hockey lacks Bryzgalovs. Of the four major sports leagues, it by far eschews personality and flavour more than all others. Hell, out of any sport it certainly boasts the most boring membership. No interview is less interesting than conversations with hockey players. Vanilla mocks the rabid blandness of NHLers. And those in NHL circles who do have personalities, like Sean Avery, Ted Nolan, or P.K. Subban, find themselves ostracized from the community, or like Subban unfairly labeled as troublesome on and off the ice. One would think a league that has struggled to find a market against its more successful sports brethren would embrace personality, but thats not the hockey way. Bryzgalov is more than a goalie, more than a hockey player. Hes a genuinely interesting and interested person. He has big questions. Like, "Im very into the universe, you know like how was created, you know, like, what is it, you know? Solar system is so humongous big, right? But if you see like our solar system and our galaxy on the side, you know, like, were so small you can never see it. Our galaxy is like huge, but if you see the big picture our galaxy (is) like a small tiny-like dot in the universe." Bryz is the opposite of boring. [HBO] But hockey is a factory of boring. The sport grabs youngsters at an early age, sends them to cosmopolitan metropoli like Chicoutimi, Lethbridge, and North Bay, and where representatives of the old boys club teach them to lack in colour and dissenting opinion. There must be courses in stock answers and cliché given to aspiring NHLers, lest they find some horrific off-ice personality. One can imagine a factory churning out 62 defencemen and gritty fourth line centres somewhere outside of Medicine Hat whose only answers are limited to: • Gotta play all three periods and go hard into the boards. • Its the coachs decision. • I enjoy CBCs Heartland. Unfortunately, this formulaic tendency has corrupted on-ice play as well. In the past quarter century weve seen the game become more systems-based, removing individuality and scoring from the game. (Lets call this Lou Lamoriellos fault.)Hockey enjoys being the definition of innocuous. What it finds funny, or interesting, is in the Jeremy Roenicks of its world, a sort of low brow, low risk comedy that makes Canadian sitcoms look like the bastard children of Louis CK and Sarah Silverman. And that affection for the benign has lowered scoring, homogenized the product, and made beat reporters quest for an interesting quote an exercise in futility. Bryzgalov is the kind of guy you like to keep in your pocket and take out at parties. He was the star of HBOs24/7, an ambitious show that tries to find intrigue in NHL locker rooms.His personality is as endearing as it playful. Hes intelligent, well read, and happy to speak on any subject. And the NHL hates him for it. This is a man who when asked if he feared the powerhouse Pittsburgh Penguins before a playoff matchup with his Flyers responded, "Im not afraid of anything – except bear. But bear in the forest." Whats not to love? The pundits cited his personality as one of the reasons he failed in Philly, despite the fact that the Flyers organization is a wasteland for goalies whose failures have been the result of a flawed organizational concept as opposed to a Russian who enjoys tea and literature. Whats most painfully difficult to entertain in this NHL with a hatred of the entertaining is the notion that there arent more personalities like Bryzgalov. The difference with Bryz is that he shares his self with the world. I cant even describe the weird that my peers tend towards in the privacy of dark corners of Montreal bars, so one cant be naïve enough to believe that similarly intriguing oddity doesnt exist in NHL locker rooms. NHLers are only permitted to show their game face, or as Bryz puts it, "You know, I have many faces … masks. In home, I have one face. Public, I have other face. Uh … ahhhh, on ice I have different face. Day off I have four face. With you [media] I have fifth face." The tradition of the league has implemented a gag order upon its membership, which limits both its on- and off-ice products. The marketing of contemporary sport is about personality. Its what makes the moments between on-field greatness interesting. Chad Johnson, Dennis Rodman, or Steve Lyons would never be allowed to exist in the NHL. From a young age, their personalities would never be given the chance to blossom into anything other than milquetoast. Bryzgalov once said, "OK, they fire the puck from the blue line. Chief usually yelling block the shot at the defensemen. They doesnt have the goalie gear, but they have to block the shot. So who is more crazy, me or the defencemen? Who is more weird?" No one, Bryz. No one. And thats a shame. For both the sport and its fans. This is likely his last few weeks as an NHL goaltender. And then exit Bryzgalov, pursued by bear.

Minnesota Vikings Jerseys . -- John Senden never imagined it would take more than seven years to win again.ST. LOUIS -- Joe Thornton and the San Jose Sharks won the matchup of unbeaten teams. But the Sharks had more pressing concerns for teammate Dan Boyle. Thornton had a goal and three assists and Patrick Marleau had a goal and two assists and the Sharks downed the St. Louis Blues 6-2 Tuesday night. Boyle was lost for the game with a head injury suffered early in the first period. Boyle was taken off on a stretcher early in the first period following a check from behind by the Blues Maxim Lapierre, who was ejected from the game for checking from behind. A Sharks spokesperson said Boyle was alert and responsive on the way to the hospital. Boyle will be kept overnight for observation. Thornton was one of the first players on the ice. "He wasnt (saying anything) and thats what was so scary," Thornton said. "Ive never seen a guy be like that before. It just takes your breath away. He wasnt responding or anything. It was very, very scary." Several Sharks players were critical of Lapierre afterward. "Its just disgusting to see that type of play in hockey, when a player that probably shouldnt even be in this league is taking out one of the best players in the world," said Sharks centre Logan Couture, who had a goal and an assist. "(Lapierre) has got a history." Added Joe Pavelski, who scored his first goal of the season: "Idiots are idiots out there. Dan is a world-class defenceman ... (Lapierre saw) straight numbers (in front of him). Theres guys in the league that will target that ... It doesnt matter, theyll just go. It (stinks). Guys responded appropriately." Sharks coach Todd McLellan gave the good news of Boyles status. "Well, he left and he went to the hospital and from what I understand, hes doing OK," McLellan said. "A very scary moment, needless. It doesnt have to happen in our game. It doesnt have to happen." Blues captain David Backes also expressed his concern afterward. "No one in their right mind would ever want that to happen to another guy," Backes said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Dan Boyle and his family. Thats a scary thing, its something you hope never happens. Hopefully he has a speedy recovery and hes back on the ice soon. "Nobody ever wants that to happen. Its a tough thing to see that and to put it behind you and keep playing. Thats disturbing." Tommy Wingels and Scott Hannan also scored, while Antti Niemi stopped 25 shots for San Jose (6-0-0). The Blues, who dropped to 4-1-0 on the season, had their 10-game regular-season home winning streak snapped as the Sharks won in dominating fashion. Jaroslav Halak also suffered his first defeat of the season, stopping 22 shots and was replaced by Brian Elliott to start the third period. It was Elliotts first action of the season. Vladimir Tarasenko broke Niemis shutout with his fourth goal in as many games for the Blues. Roman Polak also scored for the Blues. "Its tough beccause its Dan Boyle and theres so much respect in this office because of history with Dan," Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said.dddddddddddd "I havent really looked at it that closely on the video to be honest with you, so I dont want to comment on it until I looked at it a few times," Hitchcock added. "I dont think that had anything to do with the outcome today. One team played hard and smart." After the Boyle injury, it was a penalty-filled first period, with 79 minutes in penalties handed out. Lapierre was ejected for a five-minute checking from behind penalty as well as fighting, as was teammate Ryan Reaves. The Sharks also lost forward and Matt Pelech with a fighting major and game misconduct. Andrew Desjardins was originally awarded a fighting major and 10-minute game misconduct, but was changed to a 10-minute misconduct and he was able to return for the second period. Later in the period, San Joses Brent Burns checked the Blues Brenden Morrow from behind into the boards, but only got a two-minute boarding penalty to the resounding boos from Blues fans. The Sharks took a 2-0 lead on power-play scores from Couture and Pavelski just 48 seconds apart. Both goals came from the left circle, with Couture scoring at 9:37. The Blues trailed on home ice for the first time since April 16, 2013, a stretch of 568:47. Pavelski one-timed his first of the season on the short side past Halak just after a 27-second two-man advantage for the Sharks expired. The Sharks added to their lead in the second period, getting goals from Wingels and Hannan to grab a 4-0 lead. Wingels scored on a wraparound off the skate of Barret Jackman 8:34 into the period for a 3-0 lead, and Hannan with his first of the season off a slap shot with 2:47 left in the period for a 4-0 lead. Thornton made it 5-0 on a shot from the slot, beating Elliott 5:06 into the third period off a pass from rookie Tomas Hertl. Tarasenko hammered home a rebound off a shot from Jaden Schwartz at 7:23 of the third period to make it a 5-1 Sharks lead. Polaks shot from the low slot with 7:32 remaining cut the Sharks lead to 5-2. Marleau added his fifth of the season at 17:06, the Sharks third power-play goal of the game and put a stamp on a game they dedicated to their teammate. "Your heart kind of drops," Thornton said. "Its tough seeing a teammate go down like that. We had to give a good effort for Dan tonight. Ive never seen that before, youre just kind of sitting on the bench hoping Dan is OK. It takes a while to kind of get back focused again." NOTES: Hertl leads the NHL in rookie scoring with nine points. ... San Joses win was only its second in the past eight meetings with the Blues. ... The Blues previous home regulation home loss was April 14, 2013, to Chicago. ... The Sharks lead the NHL in goals (30) and goal differential (plus-21). ... Polaks goal was his first since April 11, 2013, second in two seasons and 10th of his career.
