Jonathan Cheechoo
One of the most popular Sharks in franchise history has retired from hockey after playing seven NHL seasons and finishing with four years in Russia's Kontinental Hockey League. Cheechoo, 37, played six seasons with the Sharks, including 2005-06, when he won the Rocket Richard Trophy for leading the league with 56 goals. A member of the Cree First Nations who grew up more than 500 miles north of Toronto in Moose Factory, Ontario, Cheechoo played 501 regular-season and 59 playoff games with the Sharks and Ottawa Senators. He had 170 goals and 135 assists for 305 points in his career and will be recognized by the Sharks on March 24 when they host the Calgary Flames. Cheechoo retires eighth on San Jose's all-time scoring list and sixth in goals. His nine hat tricks are the most in team history.
Maddie Rooney
The Olympic gold-medal-winning goalie is challenging Justin Bieber to take his best shot. Rooney and the U.S. women's gold-medal hockey team appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Monday night. She says she's still waiting for a tweet from Bieber. Rooney says she'd like a chance to stop a shot from the hockey-playing Canadian singer. She revealed a "Team Bieber" shirt under her USA jersey. Rooney's stop of a shootout goal against Canada clinched gold for the Americans. Jocelyn Lamoureux-Davidson's triple-fake past the Canadian goalie in the shootout is nicknamed "Oops, I Did it Again." Fallon asked, "Heard from Britney Spears?" Lamoureux-Davidson said she did get a tweet and thought it was "pretty cool."
