Looks like hockey has some competition
ESPN was just waiting for this day.
The only thing separating our beloved sport from women’s basketball, at least in the minds of ESPN executives, was the fights.
Now hockey doesn’t even have sole propietorship over that.

Last night in the WNBA game between Detroit and LA, a big brawl broke out because two players fell over. The end result was Rick Mahorn shoving Lisa Leslie to the ground and a bunch of outrage from girls that don’t understand sports. They couldn’t even get a tale of the tape graphic up in time.
We are now one step closer to hockey being completely irrelevant to the WWL. I’m sure the rockheads in Bristol are thrilled.
And if we learned one thing in all this, it’s that Mahorn is the Scott Stevens of the WNBA. Leslie, of course, is Eric Lindros.
PHANEUF'D
