Ovie Suspended; Versus is Back

Alex Ovechkin has been suspended for 2 games by the NHL for his hit on Blackhawks' Brian Campbell on Sunday. Campbell is reported to have suffered a broken collarbone and broken ribs and could be out the remainder of the season. Ovechkin will miss Tuesday's game at Florida and Thursday's game at Carolina, and is eligible for Saturday's game at Tampa Bay. This was his third game misconduct of the season and it is now his second suspension.

For those of you that have DirecTV and haven't been able to see NHL games on Versus this season--i.e. me--because of the little scuffle between Comcast (which owns Versus) and DirecTV, you're now in luck. The two sides have reached an agreement and Versus is back on the DirecTV lineup starting today just in time for the final month of the season and thankfully in time for the playoffs.
