Mikey Monday: Not a Drill

The news on Mike is: 1) He’s not skating [link].  Boudreau hopeful Mike will be able to skate by the end of this week. 2) The Caps are kinda falling apart.  Semin’s demoted to 4th line and may be a healthy scratch vs. Phoenix tonight [link].  They’ve lost 6 of 7 games, giving up 27 […]

BACK. IN. BLACK.

It’s tomorrow.  It’s the day.  TOMORROW.  Holy heck, I’m freaking out. Sidney Crosby will return  to the Penguins lineup Monday night vs. NYI.  Disco Dan says he should play around 15 minutes.   He’ll go on the Dupuis/Kunitz line, leaving the Neal/Sullivan/Geno line intact (for now). To everyone who texted/Tweeted us with the news, while […]

Foxy Friday: Thanksgiving

Hurkey durkey, Turkey!  We know you’re all thankful for hockey, and this week’s Foxy Friday is just a reminder of all the things in the world there are to celebrate. Dawn & Chuck are out shopping and Intern Jeff Skinner is making sweet potatoes with marshmallows (you should see his apron), so I’m going to […]

WUYS Morning News

Mike Green didn’t make the trip to Winnipeg with the Caps, but he did take his sprained ankle to the Kid Rock show in DC last night.  He wore his only favorite sweater (seriously, he wears this more than Toews wears that suit) and that hat that makes me want to throw snowballs.  Money was […]

And I'm Back in the Game!

Sorry, what were you saying?  JamesNeal.com couldn’t hear anything over the Penguins scoring four goals in 10:30 last night vs. Colorado. The Pens were down 3-2 when the second period began.  Then this happened: Nealmobile was 1st star with 1 G/2 A and infallible facial hair grooming.  Can I tell you why?  There’s a guy […]

Hi there, stranger.

While we have been busy with Mikey getting hurt and Tyler Seguin pouring it on and James Neal scoring daily, the Blackhawks are the #1 team in the NHL with 25 points (11-4-3). Tazer was the NHL’s Third Star for last week, with two 2-goal games to help the Hawks win three in a row.  Jon […]

Mikey Monday: &*$#*^@%!

Mike’s hurt.  Again.  The guy cannot catch a break.  At the game in DC on Saturday, Gator declared it’s not as much fun to watch the Caps when Mike doesn’t play.  She’s right. The Washington Post’s Katie Carrera reports: According to a league source, Mike Green strained his right groin muscle in Friday’s game against the […]

Independent Study

I went to look for this video and I typed “Intern Jeff Skinner” into Google. Hahahahaha. Well Intern Jeff Skinner set his dimples to stun on Saturday night and had 3 points against the Penguins.  If I didn’t love him, I’d hate him.  He scored a scrappy little backhand lifter, then served up a pass […]

For. The. Win.

Between this weekend and the Hunger Games trailer [link] I am seriously dying over here.  Then Brittany sends us this gem!  Remember the Friday post where you were all jealous she got to meet Rick Nash?  You don’t even know. Is that scruff?  Is that almost a mustache, Crosby?  Because we have had this talk […]

The Nashstache

Movember claims another victim.  Chuck’s not going to be happy with me. But I didn’t make Rick Nash do this.  The camo jersey… since it’s a tribute to Veteran’s Day we’ll declare it okay for the day.  It’s the stache.   Ricky looks like he’s wondering just how much barbed wire he needs to keep […]

Foxy Friday: 11.11.11

That is, Happy Jordan Staal Day everyone! You may insert your own favorite #11, from this list of all active players wearing today’s lucky number: There’s a legitimate campaign around WUYS to make it Zach Boychuck day, but we told Intern Jeff Skinner he can’t vote for his own roommate .  Especially when said roommate gives […]

I Drove All Night

Gator and I are like a married couple who have the same argument all the time, over and over.  It goes like this: Gator: “I can’t believe you like Mike Green.  He’s so….” Pants: “… Mike Green.” And that is the only explanation, besides falling down and looking so relieved when he scores a goal. […]

Points for This

JamesNeal.com here, reporting for duty.  James has been stuck at 9 goals for a while – Kessel Cartman has 11 and Stamkos has 10.  Do you think Steven chirps James about passing him in the stats?  What if they did it on Twitter?  We would die, that’s what. Nealer has 14 points in 15 games, […]

Mikey Monday: Missing Mo

Somewhere, Mike needs a hug.  He twisted his right ankle during his 2 goal, 4 point night vs. Detroit and hasn’t played since.  No word if he’ll play tomorrow vs. Dallas. Of course we miss seeing Mike on the ice for his skills.  But we’re also missing quality unshaven Movember time.  Normally we offer to […]

Shanabanned: Patrick Kaleta

4 games for headbutting Jakub Voracek. Yup, that one’s pretty obvious. PS: How many white shirts do you think Brendan has?  Will he ever go nuts and wear a blue one?

Birthday Boy: Luke Schenn

This is a day late.  Sorry!  But we’ve had a few requests for some Leafs love around here and I didn’t want to miss the perfect reason. Happy 22nd birthday, Luke Schenn! For his birthday, Luke had a fight in the game vs. New Jersey last night.  It’s pretty much a draw, but the Leafs […]

Thriller Night

Nicky, I’m sorry I passed up your game to go to the movies.  Tower Heist was funny, but we could have rented it on DVD and had a WUYS office slumber party.  Still, it’s just one night.  There is no need to try to kill me. When I got into the car and turned on […]

Dear Frustrated Superstar

Hahaha, I thought this was the commercial that plays before the video starts.  But it is the video!  Patrick Kane Discover Card commercial [link] Patrick, you got drunk and gave it to us last night. Great party though.  Too bad you fell asleep.  All that fun and only Toews to hang out with… he may […]

Puppy Love

Just surrender.  You are no match for the Penguins annual calendar shoot.  It’s not like we put up much of a fight, but breaking out the puppies is like dropping a birthday cake through the sunroof of our glittery private jet.  Get on board, we have treats!  I am dying from all the adorbs [video link]. […]

If We Had a Million Dollars…

Gator and I would be going to the 2011 Walk This Way Charity Fashion Show tomorrow night in DC.  And not just because it’s a great event. Come support Washington Redskins’ Brian Orakpo, Anthony Armstrong, DeAngelo Hall, Capitals’ John Carlson, Karl Alzner, Nick Backstrom, DC United’s Ben Olsen, Former Redskins Gary Clark, Former Jets John Bootyand others as […]
