@GreenFan52 (sounds like my kinda person!) suggested KB3 for this week’s Foxy Friday honor. What do you think? He hits (104 in 66 games this season). On occasion he fights (3 this year… wait, he fought Patrick Marleau?!). Mostly he’s just Juice and for every second you hate him, you can’t help but love him […]
It’s so freakin’ hot in DC that all I want to do is turn on the A/C and watch a movie. This movie. Admit it, you have this movie memorized. You’ve been known to say “Parlez-vous Olympics?!” and “Doug can read.” in conversation. You want Doug to put his hands “WHERE?!” and you don’t care […]
The most beautiful trophy in sports. You totally want to kiss it. At my wedding, Boston Bruins fan extraordinaire Tom and his genius girlfriend Michelle gave our party the one thing it was missing. This tin foil beauty sits in my office and whenever I do something great, I lift it over my head. Somewhere […]
This place is falling apart! Friday’s almost over and we’re asleep at our keyboard. Luckily, we had one saved. Did we mention that Jon Hamm presented at the NHL Awards? Chuck lurves him (a Boston accent in The Town, that’s all she needs). Perhaps Jon’s growing a beard until his team (St. Louis) gets back […]
So I couldn't resist. It's the man of the hour with the game winning goal – the only goal for that matter – in game five of the Stanley Cup Finals for Vancouver! Maxim Lapierre! and Ooh lalalala Sisters! He’s not shy about taking his shirt off – thank god and he’s quite the tasty treat. It’s […]
Let’s face it folks, it was only a matter of time before this post was going to happen. FOXY FRIDAY: Tyler Seguin On Monday, Tyler Seguin was just a baby caterpillar in his little cocoon. On Tuesday, he emerged as a beauty butterfly with black and gold wings. Seguin is this week’s Foxy Friday because he has left a […]
So I took my own advice and found a new friend! Not that I’m jumping ship on the Caps – but everyone here knows- I HEART GOALIES! And what’s not to love about this other Finnish snack PEKKA RINNE! I can now have a Miikka Kiprusoff-PekkaRinne sammy with a Cherrie in the middle! And that’s […]
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 […]
The Caps needs some love and they got it in the form of sexy #44 from New Jersey who waived his no-trade clause in February go to Washington and serve as a strong center for BB and Capt. Ovi! He’s the only one on the team with a cup under his belt and has put […]
I haven’t done a Foxy Friday is forever. The regular season is thisclose to being over and it’s about time we talked Ryan Kesler. Kesler is getting a lot of support for NHL MVP this season (not the least of which is from former Foxy Friday @buccigross). He scored a hat trick last night to […]
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 […]
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 […]
Truly adorkable. But our adorkable! We heart you. I know, I know, it’s been WEEKS … We’ve been busy! And it’s late on Friday but here it is. Nicky B. get’s this week’s FOXY FRIDAY salute and I have to throw in Epic Bromance because I can’t seem to find a video or photo that doesn’t […]
There are gentlemen and there are gentlemen and then there are men named Brooks. I seriously don’t know if any other sport has as many men in it named Brooks. Seriously. Do these women get a handbook in the delivery room with a list and don’t get past the B’s in Canada? But this is […]
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! […]
Shut the front door. Peter Forsberg will play tonight when the Avalanche take on the Blue Jackets. If you were me, and it was any year before 2005, you would be freaking out right now. ACES! When I first moved to the west coast and experienced the annoying concept of time zones and TV schedules, […]
It is a well documented fact that I love lumberjacks. Okay, so not actual lumberjacks (considering I’ve never met one) but guys who look like lumberjacks. Tall. Scruffy. Woodsy. Unabashedly manly. For this week’s Foxy Friday, I’ve decided to honor Columbus Blue Jackets right winger, Rick Nash – the original NHL Lumberjack. In all honesty, […]
If you don’t get the reference, you don’t know Jack so go ask your mama! I give you Jarome Arthur-Leigh Adekunle Tig Junior Elvis Iginla – yes, that is his full, given name. And he owns it. He’s my squishy. Most call him Iggy, I call him Nomie, always have, always will but anyone who […]
I wanted to include Shea Weber in the Skills Competition post, but there are really no YouTube videos of his game highlights. Just big, bone-crunching hits. Shea almost won the ’09 Hardest Shot with a 103.4 mph slapper [video]. Chuck’s pal Chara beat him by 2mph. When you’re going that fast, what’s 2mph? So we’re […]
Wow. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Foxy Friday and even longer since it featured a Boston University Terrier. So, folks, for my 1st FF post of 2011, I introduce you to… Colin Wilson Aside from the obvious physical attributes (6’1″, 214 lbs) and hockey pedigree (Dad was an NHLer for 12 season), Colin […]
