Post-Victory Glow

Today has been a good day…despite the fact that it has been raining for 4 days straight and the sun is no where to be found. The reason it has been a good day is very simple. It is because of last night’s Bruins game and this guy… Tyler Seguin. It is because of you […]

The Bear Believes…and so do we…

Power Outage

2 for 41. In 12 NHL playoff games, the Bruins power play has been abysmal.  Horrid.  Embarrassing. 2 for 41. Seriously, it’s not funny. Chuck is not laughing. After the Bruins dropped Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday, I’m puzzled.  Perplexed.  Flummoxed. What exactly is Coach Claude was working on in practice? […]

Sharks! Sharks! Sharks!

I leave the Bay Area and NOW YOU WIN!?!?!  If my other teams were in it I’d be so mad at you.  But beggars can’t be choosers and you guys let us drink on Caltrain so… YAY SHARKS.  I hug you! Not only did you beat Detroit (insert me making siren noise here), but you […]

Darth Vader + Hockey

If you haven’t noticed by now, Pants and I are sorta nerds…but in the best way possible. So when I saw this photo on my Thrillist email today, I just about died.  Check out Vader’s helmet. Artwork by Tyler Edlin – www.tyleredlinart.com  Pants, I was going to get you a toaster oven for your wedding but now […]

Because history doesn't let history repeat.

I love you, Boston Bruins.

Andrew Ference and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Some teams have shovels.  Some have hardhats. Andrew  and the Bruins have….The Coat. Watch the video HERE!

On the Bright Side of the Street

Lately it has been a little doom and gloom around here.  And with some good reason, I’ll agree. First, the Pens lose and Pants was very sad, yet hopeful that Mikey and the boys can ease her pain. Then, the Mikey and said boys get swept up like dust bunnies by Steve Stamkos, “Father Time” […]

In other news…

So the Sharks are up 3-0 on the Red Wings.  And Stephanie Tanner is pissed!  That’s the same face Gator is making right now in her office, partially because she’s from the D and partially because Stamkos is not coming back to DC for her. Last night was the 2nd OT game of this round […]

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 […]

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 […]

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. […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
