Keith Ballard of the Florida Panthers took hockey “goonism” to a whole new level by attacking his own goalie Tuesday night.  He claims it was one of the biggest “brain cramps” of the year when he almost decapitated netminder Tomas Voukun with a vicious two-hander, suggesting he was simply trying to smash his stick in frustration into the goal post after the Panthers gave up a goal to the Thrashers Ilya Kovalchuk.  The video evidence however looks like Voukun’s head was a Titleist and Ballard was teeing off on a long par-5.  Voukun was down for several minutes and had to be carried from the ice on a stretcher while Ballard looked on from the bench area with his teammates giving him a wide berth.  Fortunately, “facial and skull lacerations” were the “only” consequence of Ballards collossal miscue.  Just when you thought playing professional hockey inside when it is 95 degrees outside was the craziest thing going on in Sunrise, Florida, Ballard comes along to lower the “wacky” scale a few more inches.  Voukun, when finally reached for comment said that he doesn’t remember the incident but is looking forward to spending some time at the beach this week with his “omay” and 3 little brothers in Karlovy Vary, Czechoslovakia and would like to be a professional hockey player when he grows up.
