How you can help the victims in Haiti.
Plank takes a look at the importance of secondary scoring for the Sharks.
Dan Rusanowsky saves us all time by recapping the craziness that was this week in the NHL.
Your San Jose Sharks - 2nd in SBN's NHL Power Rankings.
RudyKelly envisions Battle of California as a movie - he's got the casting down for Anaheim and San Jose. Casting Tilda Swinton as Corey Perry - sheer genius.
What hockey ought to look like within the next 10 years, courtesy of Brandon Worley.
Been meaning to put this up but haven't gotten around to it - the bust-out-the-tissues tale of a Blackhawks-Blues fan. No, that's not a misprint.
Could the BJ's be leaving town?
Those Boston Bruins - what pranksters.
Are Brian Elliott and Pascal Leclaire the worst goalie-tandem in Ottawa Senators history? Safe money says yes.
In his game against the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday, Mark Recchi (1,469) passed Stan Mikita (1,467) for 13th-most-points in NHL history with a goal and an assist.
The green men at hockey games? Apparently they're called Force and Sully.

Adam McQuaid checks Troy Bodie, awkward photograph results.

The ex-Shark round-up:
- Teemu Selanne breaks his jaw only 3 games after returning from a different injury, which really puts a damper on reaching 602 goals before retirement (original Finnish Flash Jari Kurri sits at 601), not to mention playing for Team Finland.
- Mike Grier is without a point in his last 6 games. Immediately before that he had 5 points in 3 games.
- Jonathan Cheechoo has a goal and an assist this month, for a grand total of 12 points this season. Oh, what $3.5 million will get you these days.
- Milan Michalek is without a point this month, although that can conveniently be chalked up to an upper-body injury.
- Marcel Goc had a goal and an assist in Nashville' victory over Edmonton on Tuesday.
- Christian Ehrhoff's minus-4 performance in his last two games has put a damper on what was the league lead in plus/minus.
- Brad Lukowich has finally laced up for the Canucks this season, having played in their last 3 games and averaging just over 10 minutes of ice time.

And Congrats to Alex Stalock (he’s one of yours, correct?) for being named to the AHL All Star game. Neuvirth was taken off the roster because he’s been with the Caps for the last month and may not be back in the AHL by the time the game is played.

Now let's say you and I go toe to toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor.
