Things that happen in the first 5 seconds of hockey games


Hey Torts, Y U HEFF TO BE MAD?

Last night at Madison Square Garden, the Devils and Rangers engaged in three simultanious fights immediately after puck drop (see below).



The results of this included an energized crowd, two angry coaches and some blood.  But was that the most interesting thing that has ever happened at the start of a hockey game?  I've thought of a few others, so you can make the decision for yourselves.


  • Rick DiPietro leaves the game with an undisclosed injury, such as itchy finger nail.
     
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs are losing 4-0.
     
  • Sidney Crosby has already been named first star of the game.
     
  • John Tortorella is fuming, because the opposing coach actually started a line.
     
  • Zdeno Chara has stepped onto the ice, and all five opposing skaters gulp.
     
  • Kyle Wellwood has become famished.
