What do you do when your two favorite teams are playing each other? Who do you root for? That was the imponderable conundrum of the day when the Washington Capitals played the LA Kings today. At least for me. So what do you all do? I figure there are no losers! Either way I’m a winner! […]
I’m calling this Sunday’s showdown of Penguins vs Capitals NBC’s Fistfest-o-Rama 2011. Because with the punchfest the Penguins are on, I suspect it will continue well into Sunday. And I for one, can’t wait! I am even hoping that Mike Milbury will drop Piere Macguire during the first intermission so we won’t have to listen […]
The Penguins are on a holy terror and they are HANGRY! Have they been drinking their Ensure? Or are they just amped up for their game against the Caps this coming Sunday because bejesus! This wasn’t a Mike Green-style slap fight. While Cookie took a dive after a tap from DiPietro, Johnston called DiPietro out and then […]
After the All Star game if you google Ovechkin and Letang, all sorts of yummy things start to come up. But I think this is where it all began. Ovi likes it rough and I am beginning to think so does Mr. LeBang! They can’t seem to keep their gloves off each other. Can’t wait […]
Ok, so Pants and Chuck watched the Versus Broadcast and I watched the CBC broadcast because I don’t get Versus, both literally and philosophically. Below is the Sports Centre highlight of the Mad Skills wrap up if you want to watch. So here are my highlights and lowlights of the ASG weekend in no particular order: […]
When I saw this photo, I nearly burst my spleen laughing. WHO DOES THESE? Either brilliant or tragic, you decide. Yah00! Puck Daddy caption: “Dude, senior prom was weird this year.” My first thought was: This is how they make their moves on the ladies. Let me dim the lights by throwing my jersey over […]
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 am watching the All-Star Mad Skills competition and look up and lo-and-behold – THIS. Did I just fall in to an alternative reality? Did the universe just shift like in the original Star Trek and they go through a worm hole and Capt. Kirk finds out that the Blue Chick is super hot and Spock is really […]
You’ve been warned or not warned but I’m not sure which is better. Even I don’t take my love for Ovechkin too seriously that I didn’t laugh my butt off seeing this! Enjoy.
Mike talked about his All-Star Game alternate captaincy before the Caps went out and spanked the Leafs [Video]. They play the Rangers today on Versus… damn, I wanted to watch Elk Hunter. The real All Star is Mike’s cowlick though – how do you even get a helmet on over this hair? And because you […]
The Caps had a great weekend! Nicky B. dropped his scoring drought-o-rama and Ovi has his 1oth career hat trick! Cheers all around! They held on to beat Toronto after the heart breaking loss last time when they were up 4-1. Holtby was in net and did an awesome job. Sorry kids but these two photos were just too awesome not […]
Evidently I am not the only one completely in love with DREW ‘TOUCHED BY GOD’ DOUGHTY. I was feeling like the only LA King’s fan in the WORLD and I may still be. But HNIC’s big game this weekend was Edmonton VS LA KING’s and not only were we treated to a special highlight of LA KINGS Legendary […]
Pretty much every team has posted their All-Stars’ reactions to being selected, so there are a ton of videos. But I like this one best – it’s Team Dawn and Team Pants. I think these two are the only Capitals NOT in a bromance, despite the enthusiasm of their on-ice hugging. [Video] PS: I still […]
Not a good weekend for some goalies. Tim Thomas ended up watching this one go straight down the five hole LITERALLY. Which was a complete oddity given that Timmy the Tank was playing so well. When I saw it happen live I was screaming at the TV and Mr. Cherrie because I had sent him to kitchen to get […]
When Pants and I were Twittering during the various 24/7 episodes, there were a few things I came to realize, Kris Letang is HOT. He is the only Penguin I will cop to that about. Secondly, way before this blog and 24/7, MAF caught my eye because a fan put a sign up against the glass for […]
Pick your side and step right up to snorefest, I mean, SCOREFEST 2011! It’s Slewfoot Sid verses stampeding Stamkos! One night only! Not really but it sounds good since they will be playing each other again but when you have two scoring machines like these two *ouch* my – fingers – cramping – sorry – Ovi – must- […]
The Russian Machine never breaks and evidently Alex Ovechkin never stops making promos either as evidenced below. ESPN pulled the clip from Pants’ post below but I got it via a tweet from the Caps. IT WAS HILARIOUS! I just wonder seriously who pitches these things to him, “Hey Alex, we are gonna go to the […]
Okay, okay! It’s funny! (Bonus hearts for Steve Levy.) Dawn hates Varly… does this change your mind? [New video link]
My girl Kimmy has coined the perfect phrase to describe Mike Green, Sid and half the rest of the Pens and Caps on HBO’s 24/7 Episode 2: ADORKABLE. It’s absolute perfection. If I had the setup, I would have stayed up ALL night screencapping Until then, here are the highlights that I can remember screaming […]
Puck Daddy did a Hockey Fan art contest on his blog and here are some of the winners. They are truly works of art which makes me think that next year, we at WUYS should have our very own contest but it should be limited to Ovi, Sid, Geno, Mikey and a few other players […]
