(By the way, yes this is my desktop topper! 🙂 Cool huh?) The Washington Capitals are celebrating Fan Appreciation by holding an essay contest and nothing screams a winner like WRITING how much you love Ovi or Mikey or Nicky or Brooksy in 250 word or less! Right?! Right. Because we do that EVERY DAY […]
Mike Green skated with the team in Tampa this morning but still isn’t feeling right. Does Mike Green ever ‘feel right’? OK. Don’t answer that. It’s a good sign that he is on the ice but after practice when interviewers talked to him the below video was captured. Nicky had to use a fire extinguisher while Brooksy and […]
But that doesn’t mean we don’t have bunches of sweet love for you! I scored first place in my fantasy Caps hockey for the month! I’ve never ever done that! And the trade deadline’s past and YOU’RE STILL A CAP! THANK MOTHER RUSSIA! I was totes sweatin’ that one. Instead GM GM gave you some […]
You’re welcome.
One year ago today, everyone I know was on Twitter or Facebook talking about how great hockey is as the US and Canada faced off in the Olympic gold medal game. We could hear them cheering in our apartment complex, and it wasn’t the two Russian guys down the hall. My response: I have been […]
As you well know, I bring Logan Couture good luck and he scores a goal every time I see the Sharks. Even when I’m rooting against them. Turns out it might not be me turning the cosmic tables in Logan’s favor: it’s The Bieber. He means London, Ontario. Because we all know the Biebs is […]
Thanks to Seriously Pissed and Cassy: You made my Sunday! Deryk undresses Kris Letang at practice much to the delight of screaming and I mean SCREAMING pens fans and really, youtube voyeurs as well. You can hear the girl taping saying her battery is dying. I don’t think so! Maybe almost spontaneously combusting at what it’s being asked to tape. […]
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! […]
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 […]
Perhaps the best website name ever is “Runs on Duncan“ and the banner is even better. We bow and scrape to Kat’s hilarity. And for Valentine’s Day, there is a special delivery: I should stop laughing around lunch time. In your high school, did they have carnations on Valentine’s Day? I bet Jon was the […]
Happy Valentine’s Day from the girls of What’s Up, Ya Sieve
If you’ve been reading this blog with any regularity, you’ve probably realized that we are mental. Totally mental…but in a good way. I give you this example… Pants and I were GChatting yesterday about the Towes post that she was writing for the day. Chatting about how our Tazer Foxy Friday post gets crazy hits, […]
For the first and second Mondays of February, the four Boston* college hockey teams – Harvard, Northeastern, Boston College, and Boston University – take part in the Beanpot Tournament. This special hockey tournament has grown to be one of the most unique and anticipated college sporting events in the country. Winning the silver pot of Boston baked beans is a […]
Ok, I swore I would stop writing posts about the Penguins because there are so many other things in Hockey to write about but damn it, they keep doing things that are news worthy. First off, Malkin just injured himself AGAIN – YES – AGAIN. He went into the boards and hurt himself in the […]
Jeff Skinner turned the NHL All-Star Weekend into a Twilight convention by charming the heck out of everyone. And since he’s 18 years old, like a college freshman, we’ve decided to hire him as our intern. For school credit. We’re no easy A either, no pass/fail. We are demanding. Jeff will be doing useful tasks […]
Hockey players have mad skills. And what better way to showcase them, than with the always fun Super Skills Competition. So here are the results… Faster Skater – Michael Grabner (14.238 seconds) Breakaway – Alexander Ovechkin (38.5% of the fan votes). Accuracy – Daniel Sedin (4 for 4 in 7.3 seconds) Skills Challenge Relay – […]
Let’s take this in baby steps and try not to get too carried away. Because we could go on for DAYS about All-Star Weekend (wait, we already have). First, everyone missed their flights to Raleigh. Patrick Kane was busy packing his “Louis V shades.” Mike Green and Ovi couldn’t fit two grown men and hockey […]
I don’t want to be accused of not being an equal opportunity zennist. And I know there are a few of our friends here that also love Mikey. Since this is his first rodeo at the All Star Game AND he’s an alternate Captain, here’s YOUR moment of MIKEY Zen:
Dear Mr. Letang, in honor of the All-Star Game, we wish you the best of luck. We hope you keep your helmet off as much of possible, perhaps your shirt too, and get in front of the camera as much as possible please. Don’t be a wall-flower because we voted for you, we want to […]
