When WUYS is suddenly mentioned in 47 new Tweets in an hour, there’s only one possible reason: Workout video. When 46 of those messages are in ALL CAPS, I know without reading: It’s the Blackhawks. Here’s the video. It takes an extra moment to load, presumably because the internet paused to fan itself back into consciousness. […]
January 31, 2013. The day we’ve all been waiting patiently for. The day we’ll all feel slightly less creepy staring at photos of men 10+ years younger than us. Today is Tyler Seguin’s birthday. And not just any birthday, but his 21st birthday. Shots of Patron for everybody! Oh lord, help us all. People of […]
So apparently Patrice Bergeron and Intern Jeff Skinner got into a “scrum” at the end of the Bruins/Hurricanes game last night. This was our reaction. I know. I can’t stop laughing either. So much hilarity. My feed didn’t actually show the fight because it happened behind the play and Tyler Seguin happened to be on his way […]
As a hockey blog, we would be remissed if we didn’t give a big, huge birthday shout out to the one…the only…the greatest of all time (aka the GOAT)… Mr. Wayne Gretzky The Great One turns 52 years young today! Born January 26, 1961 in Brantford, Ontario, Gretzky is without a doubt the best player […]
Everybody’s talking about Nail Yakupov‘s goal-scoring celebration last night, when he tied the game vs. Los Angeles. .gif by www.sbnation.com Most people love it. There are some complaints that it’s too much, too showy, that goal scorers should “act like you’ve been here before.” Guess which side I’m on? LOOK HOW EXCITED HE IS!! He’s 19 […]
Some things are perfect. (Thanks Alison!) Okay, everything is perfect. All hockey, all weekend long. Did you enjoy it? Did you camp out on the couch/floor, eating pizza and compounding four-letter words at the top of your lungs? Did your husband say, “I forgot how crazy you are?” (Mine did.) Because hockey is back. It […]
The day we’ve long-awaited has finally arrived! Hockey is back! The lockout-shortened 2013 NHL Season starts today and I know you are just as excited as we are. Pants has been cartwheeling down the WUYS hallways, while I’ve taken to spinning around and around in my office chair, screaming “Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee”. Time for our 2013 Season […]
Last night, Bruins fans from near and far gathered at The Harp Boston to celebrate the return of the greatest sport on Planet Earth. The event, dubbed “Hockey Resurrection Party” was hosted by our local sports radio station, couple of hockey blogs, including our friends at Days of Y’Orr and Boston sports apparel juggernaut, Boston […]
It’s been all Tampa Bay up in here this week so I thought of no better way to round out the week that with a Tampa Bay Lightning Foxy Friday! This week’s honoree – Ryan Malone Here are the stats on Mr. Malone – Born in Pittsburgh on December 1, 1979. Not only is he […]
…if a Mack truck wore a NY Rangers sweater. Here I was, just minding my own, thinking I was doing all well with the return of hockey. I was just going to ease right back into it and get my bearings…then BAM…Rick Nash. Damn you, Rick Nash. Damn you and your LLBean-boyfriend good looks and […]
“… to do with my selection.” – Sir Mix-a-Lot, Baby Got Back JEEZ. I go away and hockey throws a party like the Project X kids and burns down the whole neighborhood! First things first – this Cosmopolitan list of the Hottest NHL players. Hahahahaha! Watching Grey’s Anatomy does not make me a doctor, so let’s not […]
Just in case tomorrow really is the end of the world, it’s been fun. The lockout can’t ruin hockey for me. I decide what I love about it, like the Penguins and Capitals at the same time. Throw in a Flyer while you’re at it. Expansion teams, underage boyfriends, never remembering if the Blackhawks are […]
This is a few days old, but the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. It doesn’t hurt if you’ve got a smile like Flower’s, either. Also doing good work for the holidays – the Blackhawks, helping the Greater Chicago Food Depository [link]. Jon’s getting way too much hand-in-pocket […]
It’s no big secret that we here at WUYS are big fans of Tyler Seguin. Pants only recently jumped onboard the Ty-Ty Train and I’m delighted to see that she, like so many, has become wise to the power of this tattooed man-child. I probably shouldn’t like this photo. But I can’t help it. It […]
Chuck had a dream last night that Jordan Eberle was her boyfriend. Normally I would say that my work here is done, but Ebs and Co. will not be satisfied until they 1) lead the AHL and 2) convert you all. There’s still one holdout, she’s over there. The OKC Barons have won their last […]
If I’d planned better, I would have made it to Atlantic City for the Operation Hat Trick charity hockey game on Saturday night. As it was, I couldn’t find any pants to fit me after Thanksgiving and it’s really tacky/cold to wear a hockey jersey as a dress. Luckily, other people with cameras were there. […]
Meanwhile in Russia, guess who remains perfect and is scoring a lot of points? Of course it’s Piglet. He looks pretty fond of Ms. Pink Recorder-And-Mani combo too. Or maybe he’s just happy with himself for having 5 goals and 5 assists in his last 4 games for Dynamo Moscow. This, this, a thousand times […]
While the East Coast was stockpiling batteries and Twizzlers on Friday in anticipation of Frankenstormpocalypse, the Chicago Blackhawks and friends were playing in the Champs for Charity hockey game. Photos from the Chicago Tribune They look as happy as I feel, and I wasn’t even there! All it takes is a little hockey. Even Jon […]
For weeks now, I’ve been wishing and hoping and praying (and sticking pins in my Gary Bettman voodoo doll) that this ridiculous lockout would come to an end. With no foreseeable resolution in sight, I have to focus my hockey attention elsewhere…for the sake of my own mental health and for those around me. Luckily, Sunday was […]
Lockout, Day 11: Anger Management Since I have nothing better to do than troll the internet while self-medicating with Taylor Swift songs, I’ve found a few gems. The kind that make you smile and cry at the same time. Bleacher Report: 50 Storylines the NHL Lockout is Making Us Miss It took me a few […]
