Jersey Fouls is our ongoing exploration of the rules and etiquette for proper hockey jersey creation and exhibition. If you spot what you think may be a foul in your arena, email a photo to us at puckdaddyblog@yahoo.com for inclusion in future installment.

As you know, No. 69 jerseys are the scourge of NHL fandom, a bat-signal of douche-o-city akin to wrapping your Tucker Max book in an Ed Hardy T-shirt. That established … well, this is sorta clever.

From reader John, a couple of Minnesota Wild Fouls:

Seen leaving Xcel - I get the sophomoric humor of the "Dyslexic" jersey, but the "bassackwards" confuses me since 66 backwards is... 66

This is an excellent point. Unless they’re going for a ‘99’ jersey, which is just as stupid. But we’re not even sure if ’99’ is ‘66’ “bassackwards” because we’re not entirely what qualifies as “bassackwards” in this day and age.

(Coming Up: Devils fan swallows; epic Dave Steckel foul; Preds fans get Horny; a Van Halen foul; a weird Sidney Crosby DIY jersey; and a sneaky Red Wings ‘69’ sweater.)

You'd think that Jack Johnson might be looking especially forward to Friday night's game in Los Angeles, his first return to the Staples Centre since he was traded from the Kings to the Columbus Blue Jackets last February.

It's always a gut punch to be traded, after all, and in Johnson's case, watching the Kings turn their season around and march all the way to their first ever Stanley Cup the moment he left had to be difficult. For many players, this is a game that would draw a bright red circle on the calendar.

But not for Johnson. "It’s just another game now," he told Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider.

If there were any strange emotions, they've worn off with time. The trade, which sent Jeff Carter to LA (a place where his frosted tips would be appreciated) in exchange for Johnson and a first-round pick, happened almost a year ago. Since then, Johnson has faced the Kings twice, both times in Columbus. "It’s not a surreal thing anymore or a weird thing," Carter said.

"I’ve already

Game action from the Turkmenistan President's Cup, where the local teams are racking up "decisive victories", according to Turkmenistan's state run media.

The United Arab Emirates isn't exactly a hockey superpower, but the nation is working at developing the game within its borders. They've had some success at the IIHF Challenge Cup of Asia, winning gold in 2009 and in 2012, but there, they're playing against other developing hockey nations like Chinese Taipei and Thailand. We can assume that they're not quite ready to go up against, say, a Russian team.

But we don't have to assume. This week, the UAE sent their U17 squad to Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, for the inaugural Turkmenistan President's Cup. There, they faced off against the U17 HC Silver Lions from St. Petersburg, Russia. It didn't go well.

They lost by a final score of 60 - 0. From Ria Novosti:

The Silver Lions 95 under-17 hockey squad have produced an amazing score in the maiden Turkmenistan President’s Cup as the Saint Petersburgers put 60 goals past the United Arab Emirates national team.

The regular time of a hockey match is 60 minutes, which means the Russian players scored a goal every minute on average.

Yes, that is what that means.

Way to run up the score, St. Petersburg. Just wait until Don Cherry hears about this.

But don't feel bad for the Emirati team. Their boys may have been severely overmatched on the ice, but at least they were on the ice. The largest issue holding hockey back in the UAE is that there are only a handful of rinks. (Meanwhile, Google Maps shows six rinks in St. Peterburg alone.) National team player Faisal Saeed explained the need for more ice to the IIHF in 2011:

“There are a lot of kids waiting to play this sport, but we don’t have enough ice time for them. If we had more rinks, then we could really move the sport forward. We need to expand and I hope we do that.”

Now the Emirati want to look up to the top nations with the prospect of additional rinks. They think about an entry in the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship program for 2013. The first goal is to qualify for the Division III, but the dream is to become the first Arab team to challenge the traditional powerhouses from North America and Europe in the Top Division one day.

Clearly, that dream is still a ways off.

If it's any consolation to the UAE club, it could have been much, much worse. It would have taken another 32 goals to match the record for hockey's most lopsided loss. In 1998, South Korea defeated Thailand 92-0 at the Asia and Oceania championships.

Max Pacioretty and Shawn Matthias go head-to-head.

No. 1 Star: Carey Price, Montreal Canadiens

It was a goaltender's duel in the Sunshine State, and Price came out on top, stopping all 26 shots he faced in a 1-0 overtime win over the Florida Panthers. The lone goal came courtesy of Rene Bourque, who ruined Jose Theodore's shutout bid at 2:10 of the extra frame.

No. 2 Star: Eric Fehr, Washington Capitals

Fehr is on fire right now. Two nights after putting up a goal and an assist in a win over Florida, Fehr continued producing for the Capitals in a 4-3 victory over Tampa Bay, scoring twice. He now has 5 points in his last 3 games, all of which the Capitals have won. Mathieu Perrault added 3 assists for Washington.

Preview: Toronto Maple Leafs at Carolina Hurricanes, 7 p.m. ET

Who'd have thought, this late into the season, this would be a matchup between two of the better teams in the Eastern Conference? Not I. But the Hurricanes currently sit atop the Southeast Division, and the Leafs have been on a tear of late. They're now just two points back of Boston atop the Northeast (although Boston has two games in hand). The Leafs will have to continue their tear without Matt Frattin and James Reimer, both of whom went down with injuries over the weekend. If they can, a win tonight will give them their first five-game winning streak since 2007.

Preview: New York Islanders at New York Rangers, 7 p.m. ET

If you're a betting man, take the Rangers. It's not just that have the better record or that they're at home. They've also won 3 straight, and if that's not enough, the Islanders haven't won at MSG in 8 straight tries. Guys to keep an eye on: Matt Moulson, who's been a point per game player versus New York over the last 20 affairs, and J.T. Miller, who's still trying to prove to the Rangers that he deserves to stay with the club.
