It's an all-new Pundays at The Royal Half, where we feature the best and worst of the NHL.com pun-filled front page headlines from the past week. And since I no longer have anything to live for, I can focus my attention on the amazing... aw, forget it... just get it over with, alright?!?

I mean, seriously. All of these injuries to the Los Angeles Kings have made me want to turn off the hockey game on tv, curl up underneath a blanket and just get drunk on a nice bottle of wine.

Over the course of last week the talk of the hockey world was players who seek out other players necks and break them. And while your opinion on whether the Zdeno Chara hit on Max Paniorrity was a "hockey play" or not might differ…  I think we can all agree that NHL.com handled this ugly incident hit with their usual elegance of pun sensitivity...

Indiana Matt strikes again!

As we head into the last month of the 2010-2011 NHL season, teams are working harder than ever in an effort to lock up a playoff spot. The team over at the NHL.com Pun Headline Writing Department is no different, as during the last week these players attacked the front page of NHL.com as if they were shot out of a cannon.

Every Which Way but Looch.

The NHL trading deadline is one of the most eagerly anticipated events for hockey fans everywhere and one of the biggest opportunities for the pun headline writers across the hockey globe to really showcase their talents. Luckily, most pun headline writers are signed into contracts, many with no movement clauses, so they don't have to worry about being dumped to NFL.com or MLB.com for a conditional pick in the 7th round. That allows these writers to perform at their creative best and sometimes you just can't believe what they just did.

Oh no, they squidn't have.

Forget about the Grammys! It's another exciting edition of Pundays, where we take an in-depth look at the best and worst of the NHL.com front page pun headlines. And this past week featured the first of what I'm sure will be many pun-filled headlines announcing a NHL trade.

You better believe that re-acquiring Francois Beauchemin was a bold move by the Anaheim Ducks.

Now that the Ducks have strengthened their blueline, you might say they are back in… oh, for chrissakes!!

I'm sorry for taking the Lords name in vain, I know this is a family-friendly blog. Please accept my sincere apology.

It's been quite some time since our last edition of Pundays, where we take an in-depth look at the best and worst of the NHL.com front page pun headlines. But just because we took a few weeks off doesn't mean that the headline writers at NHL.com get to go on a break. Take a gander at what we've been missing over the past 6 weeks.  

So here we go, Pundays is back again and bigger than ever. I really wish there was a phrase that could best describe exactly why I've been unable to write about the NHL.com pun headlines the last few weeks… but whatever phrase I think of just seems disorganized and without logic.  

I've missed you so, NHL.com pun headlines.

So what happens when a hot-shot rookie playing in his 2nd NHL game unleashes a shootout move so amazing, it has the entire hockey world talking? The pun headline writers at NHL.com pray to god that he has a name which can be easily punned.

And then they beat it into the ground.

Well, you stop writing about the great pun-filled headlines of NHL.com for just 2 weeks and all of a sudden your favorite NHL hockey team tumbles from 1st place in the Western Conference to 11th place. So message received, NHL.com. If I keep writing about pun headlines, the Los Angeles Kings will continue to win. And let's be honest, the pun headlines of NHL.com are so great why would I want to go 2 weeks without writing about them. In fact, if I had to describe the past 2 weeks of pun headlines in only one word...

Okay, maybe one other word.

Being a writer means taking chances. And just because you are spending your nights waiting for hockey games across the country to finish doesn't mean that you can't take a chance. So for one certain NHL.com pun headline writer, Saturday night's Western Conference Final rematch between the Vancouver Canucks and the Chicago Blackhawks... was their time to shine.

Posted just a few minutes before the 7pm PST start.

Posted just minutes after the Blackhawks 7-1 win.
Actually, it turns out that this particular writer is just a huge fan of the former CW show, 7th Heaven.

Now, I just may be a simple hockey loving fan from Los Angeles, California who some folks up north may think has no idea what icing is or just truly what Paul Henderson's goal meant to the country in 1972… but I think I know one thing… and it's that the word "undercover" is pronounced nothing like this:

Well, maybe with a Canadian accent it is.
