Paulina Gretzky did male hockey fans a favor by getting frisky all over Instagram this week. If you heard DC’s Elliot in the Morning today, it was a gem. But it’s a little unfair, don’t you think? They get bikinis and we get beards? Ladies, don’t worry. Sweden never lets us down. No really, they […]
WHEW! With a must-watch hockey game every night, how is everyone doing? I’m skipping the gym and am way behind on Game of Thrones. Poor Chuck is trying to graduate from grad school! We must remember to revel in it now because when it’s over, it’s over. Then you can get a tan, learn […]
I wish you guys could have seen me last night. In a bar with twelve tables, eleven were filled with Bruins fans. My dad and I, in my Backstrom shirt, were at the other. The waiter didn’t bother to ask, he just kept the beers coming. When Joel Ward scored, I jumped out of my […]
So the Kings making it past Vancouver was like this happening … And it was all because of the guy with the most AWESOME hair this side of the Mississippi! And I can attest from seeing it in person. HOLY CRAP! It deserves a post of its own – hell, it deserves a facebook page of its […]
After this weekend, the heat intensified over how Brendan Shanahan decides suspensions and disciplinary action. But for us women, there’s no secret. After the Campbell empire of nepotism and favoritism crumbled there was hope for a clean start. But after almost a year in the position it looks like The Plastics are back with 2.0 […]
Chuck and I are not talking about the Bruins/Caps series. At all. It’s actually working out, as we restrict ourselves to screaming at televisions and telling our problems to bartenders, strangers and anyone unlucky enough to gchat us. I have discovered a hatred for the Bruins that I never knew existed, and I can only […]
At Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon in Austin, TX, every Sunday night they play Chicken Sh*t Bingo. It’s exactly what it sounds like – feed a chicken, turn it loose on a tabletop bingo board and wherever it takes a crap, that number goes on the board. I’m pretty sure this is also how the NHL […]
Remember when Harry Potter got so angry at Dudley that he made the glass disappear and unleashed a snake into a room full of kids? I wanted to disapparate the glass in the Verizon Center last night and let the fans go berserk. I have never been so worked up at a game. As the […]
It’s getting hot in here, and Brendan Shanahan’s phone was ringing off the hook yesterday. Three players face disciplinary hearings for offenses committed during Saturday’s run of show… 1. Carl Hagelin Former Foxy Friday and Ryan Gosling stun- double Carl Hagelin is not known for throwing elbows and getting dirrrty. But the playoffs make people […]
I was beginning to think I was me. When the Pens, Caps and Hawks all went down 0-1 in their playoff series, I wondered if I might be cursed. Then Friday’s debacle in Pittsburgh had me panicking – should I sit on the couch or the floor? But I did that last time! Jersey or […]
Welcome to the NHL Playoffs. Where all friendships are suspended and The Battle of the Blog really begins. The Bruins and Capitals begin their playoff series tonight. Chuck and I have called a time out on fifteen years of watching “So I Married an Axe Murderer” and 3 AM pizza deliveries. All those *N Sync concerts […]
I thought an all-consuming work event on the first night of the NHL Playoffs was a terrible thing. Instead it saved me from having to watch the Penguins blow a 3-goal lead and lose in OT to the Flyers. Even my phone and Blackberry died when it was 3-0 – I should have seen the […]
EXCITING NEWS EVERYONE! Pants and I are proud to announce that during the playoffs, WUYS will be writing a weekly post on Puck Daddy!! It’ll be about the best (and worst) playoff beards, which is one of the things we simply adore about hockey players. I heart beards so much that I have been know […]
Saturday was an epic hockey marathon featuring every team in the NHL. Some games were for playoff position, others were a last hurrah. For me, not even that killer Caps win came close to seeing Steven Stamkos score his 60th goal of the season. And get a pie in the face. Stop looking at Ran […]
We don’t watch as much Western Conference hockey as we’d like – it’s past our bedtimes. For those who do, and whose teams ended their 2011-2012 seasons last night, this one’s for you. The Dallas Stars finished in 9th place last year too. Frustrated but the hopeful. The ultimate hockey fan emotions. Flames fans are […]
For some teams, the Stanley Cup Playoffs are about building on a season’s worth of experience. For others, the post-season is about forgetting how you got there and starting over. Before we get to ahead of ourselves, let’s take a moment to appreciate the NHL teams whose seasons will end tomorrow. Buffalo has been giving […]
Oh my God, they made it. The Washington Capitals are in the playoffs. Gator and I were extremely underdressed last night by wearing our 74 and 19 shirts in a swanky bar, but we still cheered and screamed. You can’t take us anywhere. Just when you want to be relieved for a minute, there’s still […]
Uh, there’s something missing from your post Chuck. James Neal’s 40th goal of the season! The Nealmobile was honking like mad last night as James hit this milestone. His previous career-high was 27 goals in 2009-10. How fun it must be to play alongside Geno (105 points this year) and sometimes Sid (22 points in […]
Mike Milbury is talking crap again. In other news, water is wet. He made some derogatory remarks about Sidney Crosby is a Philly radio interview discussing the brawl at the end of Saturday’s game. He called Sidney a “punk” and a “goody two shoes” among other things that you can read about on ESPN.com [link]. Let me […]
If you weren’t watching the Penguins/Flyers game yesterday afternoon, you probably wondered what that noise was. It was the rest of us screaming. I could (and will) watch this all day. The amount of awesome cannot be expressed. Even Pierre is speechless. I wish they’d kept his mic live so we could hear Laviolette screaming. […]
