Oilers fan takes out playoff frustration on team logo (VIDEO)

It seems like the Edmonton Oilers haven't made the playoffs since The Great One ditched town (eight years actually) and that frustration came to a head for at least one angry Canuck who misses hockey lasting into June.

This bonehead ended up throwing his his backpack at a promotional Oilers sign inside a bank and, according to whiskeylullabyy, he managed to break the window outside of the building with his one-man protest.

And, like any good Canadian, he cleaned up his mess. 

Messier and Gretzky both want Rangers vacant coaching job

A couple of New York Rangers hockey legends are both interested in taking over the team's newly vacant head coaching job after John Tortorella was fired on Wednesday.

Mark Messier and Wayne Gretzky have both said they want to take over the rudderless team after Torts was canned with one year remaining on his contract, reports The New York Post.

Rangers general manager Glen Sather is looking at a number of possible candidates who have arisen from both inside and outside the organization. Messier was the one name being mentioned that didn’t have a day of professional head coaching experience, while The Great One hasn’t coached since he was behind the Coyotes’ bench in 2009.

As originally reported by Canadian outlet SportsNet, Messier wants this to be his first head-coaching job in either the AHL or NHL. The sole coaching experience for the 52-year-old is with Team Canada during the 2010 Deutschland Cup and the 2010 Spengler Cup. He was also the general manager for Canada during the 2010 World Championships in Germany.

Gretzky bought a part-ownership stake in the Coyotes in 2001, two years after finishing what most consider the best career of all time with a three-season stint for the Rangers. He took over behind the bench in Phoenix in 2005, and couldn’t get them to the playoffs in four straight seasons before giving up the role.

It is unsure if either Messier or Gretzky have made their offers clear to Sather, who is expected to begin the interviewing process at the organization’s annual meeting in late June in La Quinta, Calif. The team has also received permission to speak to former Canucks coach Alain Vigneault, as well as Toronto Marlies (AHL) coach Dallas Eakins. Another name high on the list would be former Sabres coach Lindy Ruff, but it’s unsure if the Blueshirts have obtained permission to bring him in for an interview.

Both the Stars and Canucks are still looking for coaches, as well, and it would seem that they might be more inclined to have a coach with NHL or AHL experience.

Gretzky played out the last three years of his illustrious career with the Rangers until 1999. While Messier became one of New York's greatest sports legends ever after guaranteeing a Game 6 win over the New Jersey Devils in the 1994 Eastern Conference finals and backing it up with a hat trick. Then he scored the game-winning goal against the Vancouver Canucks to give the Rangers their first Stanley Cup in 54 years.

The two friends played together at Madison Square Garden for one season in 1996-97.

Gretzky Family Gets Their Grunge On For The Holidays

Who said grunge is dead.  Not Wayne Gretzky and his family.

The first family of hockey's annual Christmas card with their Addams Family stares is a classic.  It wouldn't be a stretch to mistake this brooding brood for some Seattle garage band circa 1991.

The Hall-of-Famer's artsy sepia-toned family portrait just screams "Merry F---ing Christmas!" and would make Kurt Cobain proud.

This photo would make an awesome album cover and is definitely more "Rock On" than Norman Rockwell.

All that is missing from this Rolling Stone cover shot are a couple of guitars and some empty Jack Daniels bottles to go with the grunge fashions.

The Paulina Gretzky Photo Which Had Wayne "At The End Of His Rope"

Popular Twitter star Paulina Gretzky is back to her old tricks again—posting racy pictures of herself—against the wishes of her dad hockey great— Wayne Gretzky.

The 22 year-old wild-child daughter of Gretzky and his actress wife Janet had angered her father so much—by posting the suggestive snapshots of herself on her Twitter account— that he ordered her to remove the provocative photos from the Internet.

The Hall-of-Fame hockey player finally flipped out after seeing the racy shots of his daughter—especially one where she is sucking a lollipop in a revealing low-cut top.

"Wayne had been very tolerant until now," said a family source.  "His hair was standing on end when the photos came to his attention—especially the one where she sucking on a lollipop with her boobs front and center."

"'He was like what's next?'" said the source.  "That's when he finally sat her down and told her 'This is just not about you—it's about the family name, so stop it.'"

Much to the sadness of her growing legion of followers, the Great One then sent Paulina to the penalty box.

Even her mother, a former Playboy and lingerie model herself, is incensed by her daughter's photo spreads.

The long-time feud between father and daughter came to a head during Thanksgiving.  Paulina even tweeted about the situation herself:  "Having a nice sit-down with my dad about social media...haha."

Right after that, she replaced the saucy photos with a family holiday shot and tweeted: "Taking a break from Twitter for a bit.  Happy Holidays!!!Xoxox."

The oldest of Gretzky's five kids is an aspiring actress and singer but still gets an allowance from her parents.  She refused to go to college and her plans in the entertainment business haven't panned out.

Her name and wealthy upbringing haven't really opened many doors and, until this lifestyle disagreement with her famous father, wasn't known for anything but a song she sang which was used on the MTV show Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County soundtrack.

There has been speculation that the conservative Gretzky was considering buying the Toronto Maple Leafs and some of his daughter's R-rated pix could hamper the deal according to reports.

Darren Blake, Gretzky's manager, said, "Wayne won't be issuing any comments."

Gretzky has confided to friends, according to the New York Post, that "Boys are easier to raise than girls."

Last week, Paulina was at it again and tweeted: "Hi everyone I'm back!  But shh don't tell my dad."

That tweet abruptly disappeared but there are still racy photos on her account including a new photo with a pouting Paulina in a white T-shirt with the word SEX in big black letters.

I'm sure Wayne considers that a blue line infraction.
