Just because I'm still as giddy as a kid hopped up on marshmallow Peeps…

Just because I’m still smiling… Hoping it’ll last… We’ll find out tomorrow…

Foxy Friday: 2 for the price of 1!

Time and time again, Foxy Friday has proven to be a good luck charm to many an NHLer. You get featured on this blog, good things happen.  It’s a fact. It is also a place where we can recognize the exceptional feats of athletic awesomeness of those players who do big things when it matters the […]

Tazer Cat Loves the Playoffs!

I've got to admit it's getting better…A little better all the time…

Not to worry, friends.  I’m okay.  No really, I am. I have to admit it was pretty rough for me there for a while. Last Saturday, there I was – curled up in the fetal position, buried under a mound of covers, empty box of coconut milk ice cream sandwiches by my bed. My beloved […]

Tim Thomas: Goalie Berserker

One of THE best analysis of Timmy Thomas and his unorthodox style.  Totally spot on. From NHL.com (Goalie matchup: Canadiens-Bruins) Justin Goldman chooses Tim Thomas, Boston Bruins:Tim Thomas is a true goaltending enigma. Everything he does is the complete opposite of what today’s elite butterfly goalie is taught to do. He is the world’s finest “read-and-react” goaltender and […]

SkateNet Takes Over the NHL Playoffs

40 years is a loooong time to wait for a shiny silver cup called Stanley. But apparently, my beloved Bruins won’t have to wait much longer thanks to the interweb…and apparently the SkyNet computers.  Or SkateNet, as I like to call it. According to sports simulation website Whatifsports.com, the Killer B’s will win the cup […]

Tazer Cat for good luck!

pew pew pew for good luck?!? The Blackhawks really need to make it to the playoffs. Like for realz. If they don’t, Pants will seriously cry.

Foxy Friday brings Felicitation! (again)

We’ve done it again! Or should we say, Foxy Friday as done it again! April 1st –  Shawn Thornton named WUYS’s Foxy Friday. April 5th – He is named the 2011 Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy nominee. I’m sure that his great player and all around awesomeness contributed greatly to his nomination but you can’t discount […]

Foxy Friday: Shawn Thornton

Shawn Thornton is a bad-ass. Plain and simple. Not only will he pummel you to a juicy pulp like Tropicana, he’ll then turn around and score some sicky goal top shelf like he was Sidney Crosby or something. Some other reason why Thornton gets this week’s honor? He took time out of his busy pugilistic endeavors to […]

Yinzers for the Weekend

Pants did hers…so now it is my turn…. My recap of WUYS’ Best.Weekend.Ever (except that time we went to see Hanson.  That was EPIC.) Saturday: Penguins Open Practice at Southpointe Iceoplex Kris Letang really liked our side of the ice.  Really.  I must have taken like 150 photos of him, but I couldn’t help myself. […]

BREAKING NEWS: Matt Cooke is a Goon

Looks like Matt Cooke definitely WON’T be getting the Lady Byng Trophy this year… Cooke has been suspended for the remainder of the regular season and for the 1st round of the playoffs for elbowing NYR defenseman Ryan McDonagh in the head in yesterday’s game. Not only does he let down his team, he’ll also […]

It could be a lot worse. We could be from Philly.

Wait?  Is that Sidney‘s head they are burning in effigy??? We don’t like that.  Especially Pants. “Get your damn hands off him,” she says. The photo above accompanied a blog post entitled “GQ ranks Montreal Canadiens fans among the worst in sports”.   The Habs fans, aka the Frostbitten Hooligans, ranked 11th on the list and […]

Bruins vs. Habs – Fight Fest: The Sequel?

Last time the Bruins and the Canadiens faced each other, they combined for 187 minutes of penalty minutes.  (see my post about it here) That is 3 hours and 7 minutes of shame. Or triumph, depending on who you are rooting for. The teams also scored 14 goals between them. And the Bruins won.  So […]

Tazer Cat!

You’re welcome.

Winner Winner Bruin Dinner

The Bruins have won 7 in a row. We like this.  We like this alot. 6 wins on the road including a huge win over the best team in the NHL, the Vancouver Canucks and the Sedin Wonder Twins. Last time the B’s won 6 straight on the road was waaaay back in 1972.  They […]

I'm Mad as Hell and I'm Not Going to Take This ANYMORE!

If this guy’s coaching career doesn’t pan out, perhaps he has a future as a Chippendale dancer… So what caused this bare-naked outburst? Turns out that the guy (assistant coach Greg Pankewicz from the Colorado Eagles) was madder than a wasp because one of the linesmen tackled his player after a fight. Granted the player […]

Boston Bruins…they be doing big things

Peter Chiarelli, Cam Neely, and the Bruins made some big moves today, ahead of the February 28th deadline. They FINALLY did the deal to bring puck-moving Maple Leafs defenseman Tomas Kaberle to Boston in exchange for Bruins prospect forward Joe Colborne and a 1st round draft pick in 2011.  The deal also stipulates that should […]

Foxy Friday: Marc Andre Fleury

Words used to describe this week’s Foxy Friday honoree… Humorous.  Talented.  Effervescent.  Cereal Magnate. Marc Andre Fleury   Yes, Marc-Andre.  You are zee best. While you may not be the best goalie (statistically) in the NHL and your team is sinking faster than the Titanic,  you are definitely zee best when it come to having fun! […]

Rick Nash – Are you trying to kill me?

Seriously. He’s doing this on purpose.   Just to torture me. Doesn’t he know what this does to me? *swoons* The hair. The beard. Those shoulders. *chuckmeltsintopuddleoflove* P.S. Click here to watch post game interview of Rick being all adorable and lumberjacky. *meltsalloveragain*

With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility

ESPN.com recently posted its NHL Power Rankings for Week 20.  Some teams shot up the rankings like the Anaheim Ducks, Los Angeles Kings , and Columbus Blue Jackets.  While some faltered like the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins.  (Pants and Dawn are extremely sad pandas.  Like really really sad.) As a Bruins fan, I’m glad […]
