Can I just… Are those moccasins on a scooter, Biz? Is this a dig at Mike Green? I doubt it, because you’re hilarious and we freaking love you. So you’d better not be making fun, since I know where your team stays and I don’t do Wolverine-haired emo slapfights. I will take off my earrings […]
Since Rae bought me a beer last night, I’m posting this picture of Ovi for her. Please tell me that’s not underwear, then jeans and then sweatpants. I must be hallucinating. Not to mention he has his shirt off, in public, in China. You don’t have to ask Jon what he thinks. No really, don’t […]
Who wants to go to the Caps Convention with me on September 24? Who’s already going and doesn’t mind if I tag along? Tickets are $50 and they’re still available.
The lovely @alliknode brought this to our attention. Shirt of My Life indeed, even over Nicky Backstrom’s “Your Girlfriend Loves to Wear My Hockey Jersey” one. I actually had a shirt that said PANTS back when Chuck and I both lived in LA… there are some photos, but thanks to questionable hair styles of the early […]
This is old news by now, but things are busy around the WUYS offices with Vespa lessons and all the Swedish we’re learning. Steven 1 and Steven 2 (Yzerman and Stamkos, obvs) did a press conference last week [video] about Stammer’s 5-year contract in which Yzerman said: And Stamkos said: Seriously, Steven Stamkos is the happiest […]
Does this mean we’ve officially made it? Mexican coca colas for everyone! We follow pretty much every NHL team on the twitter in the hopes that someday they’ll follow us back and we’ll feel super popular and emotionally validated as serious hockey bloggers. Phoenix Coyotes were the first to follow us, but have to admit […]
Gator and I are busy working, and then deciding how to spend our hard-earned money. The NHL Store recently posted a new girls long-sleeved and short-sleeved t-shirts for most of the teams. I like them and I want this Lightning one. If only it said STAMMER on the back. 😉 For the number of Caps […]
This weekend, we have a big date with Harry Potter. Saying goodbye may be the hardest thing we’ve ever had to do. And when “the moment” comes for Ron & Hermione, the shriek of absolute fangirl pandemonium you hear in whatever city/country you’re in will be from me. Since we’re busy, who’s going to the […]
Oh Max. I cannot stay mad at you. I needed a day to cool off and now I just want to hug you and say everything will be okay, except for that hideous sweater you’ll have to wear. But your Christmas sweater was a good warm-up. If anyone could pull off nuclear orange, it’s you. […]
Sometimes you guys need to see our Search Engine terms. This is priceless. (Dawn says, “Only six?!” I say it’s only 2 PM.)
The biggest question of the 2011 Free Agent market has been answered. And the winner is… NYR Fan Steph. The Rangers have given Brad Richards a 9 year deal worth $58.5 million. [NHL.com] Other teams that may have asked Brad to dance were Toronto, Calgary, LA, Tampa Bay and Philly. How the Flyers have any […]
Max Talbot signs with the Flyers, 5 years at 1.8 million/year. JUST KILL ME. Max got a raise ($1.05 mill with Pens). And I know that when the shock wears off I will still love him but… do you have to aim right for my heart? Do you have to stand so close and shoot […]
Yesterday, seven-time All-Star (and former U of Maine Black Bear) Paul Kariya retired. Kariya had 402 goals and 989 points in 989 career games and played for 15 years. He probably could have played longer…were it not for that pesky little villain all hockey fans HATE…the concussion. Kariya didn’t play at all last season as he attempted […]
Things I Love: America. Twitter. Hockey. And whoever made this .gif on Tumblr:
Loyal WUYS correspondents @jfrancesw and @chialo managed not to get arrested last night at the NHL Awards party. And they took a photo just for me! I fangirlled right out of my socks. What could top that, you ask? @jfrancesw and the man himself. I should definitely be at an open bar party with Jeff Skinner. Can you […]
I alternate between muting and leaving the room when I’m uncomfortable with what’s on TV. So I watched the NHL Awards in fits and starts and really tried to only listen when a player was talking. The show was fairly agonizing, featuring some of the flattest jokes possible. I generally think Jay Mohr’s pretty funny […]
Gator and I do an All-Star draft at her birthday party. And never mix up our beers. Then someone plays Hangin’ Tough.
I know Chuck is having a moment with the Bruins right now, and I’m thrilled for her. Because two years ago today, there was this: It was a Friday. I sent my office home early, gingerly arranged the bunny ears on the conference room TV and proceeded to spend three hours alone and freaking out. […]
Obviously my mind works like a Jackson Pollack painting. Throw shit on a canvas and see what sticks or I’ll tell you what you should be seeing. Sometimes it really just is the proverbial polar bear in a snow storm. Actually, one of these scary stares I thought figured how to make his way into […]
