Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Continues Rampage, New York Wins On Road

"It's hard for me to congratulate somebody after you just lose to them," he said. "I'm a winner. It's not being a poor sport or anything like that. If somebody beats you up, you're not going to congratulate them. That doesn't make sense to me. I'm a competitor. That's what I do. It doesn't make sense for me to go over and shake somebody's hand."

LeBron James, in essence summing up the difference between the NBA and NHL.

And LeBron is legitimately one of the good guys…

Really? He whines, and I’d say it’s a toss up who’s worse — him or Crosby.

I couldn’t help but think of the picture of the past two MVPs shaking hands after the Pens series, with AO sincerely wishing Crosby good luck.

I wanted to post that as well when I saw it…what a diva. Ovie should send him back his signed jersey.

You know, I forgot about that.

Like I needed another reason to love hockey. “It’s not being a poor sport or anything like that”? Actually, it’s precisely like being a poor sport.

Who is Lebron James?

I'm so sick and tired of the refs explaining the calls like this is the NFL.

OT Hockey 2/8
Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
