Home Sweet Home

I was going to simply Tweet that “Ebs had his jersey retired by the Regina Pats on Wednesday” with a link to the only news story that had an photo [link]. Then I found proof that he can be adorable even when he sounds like the teacher from Charlie Brown (everyone does in this video): […]

Birthday Boy: Taylor Hall

America, land of democracy.  To prove that every vote counts, not just the people running the place: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TAYLOR HALL. (That sound you hear is Amanda and Jess crashing to the floor.) Since Taylor’s living and playing in the US, his 21st birthday is a big deal.   We hope he makes good decisions, […]

Foxy Friday: The Future

With the NHL lockout looming over us like that creepy guy at work always looking over your shoulder at your computer, we’re starting to worry. A large part of our anxiety is that if the NHL does lockout, we will be denied a new shiny batch of Foxy Fridays to choose from.  And that is […]

Two for the Road

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 […]

Foxy Friday: Jordan Eberle

Jordan Eberle really wants to be our intern.  He applies twice a week – and those are just the resumes we see.  Imagine how many Intern Jeff Skinner has intercepted! As “Job Experience,” Jordan humbly mentioned that he’s s a spectacular hockey player.  He has 25 G/30 A this season, another in the Oilers rebuilding campaign.  Edmonton […]

Taylor Hall should listen to his mom.

Attention hockey players, Behold reason 2,369,067 to wear a helmet. Warning! Warning!  This may make you queasy.   You are begging….nay –  PLEADING with you all.  Please, for the love of Dear Lord Baby Jesus and Tim Tebow – wear your freakin’ helmets!  We don’t care that it is just warm-up.  We don’t care that […]

Up Close and Personal

I don’t know where the last month has gone and I have completely neglected to put up this guest post by the lovely Jessica W!  Since @amandalitty is going to her first ever NHL game tomorrow – Blackhawks vs. Penguins (way to peak too soon!) – here’s a play-by-play of Jess getting to see her beloved […]

Shanabanned: Andy Sutton

5 games for this hit on Gabriel Landeskog. Mr. Shanahan does not like it when you mess with our Foxy Friday honorees. Click [here] for Shanabanned’s ruling.   

Tweet, Tweet Love

I promise before the season starts, we’ll do a whole list of players and personalities that you guys should be following on Twitter.  Can we take a moment to appreciate the Tweet Beauty of Ryan Whitney?

And Now For Something Completely Different.

Who says the NHL is bias? Letting the Punching Pens off when J. Staal uses another player for a nail to hang his velvet Elvis? nah … If that were Ovi, he’d be on early vacation doing the turkey dance in his mankini! Do I need to post another picture of Ovi with out his […]

Battle of Alberta: Round 1

The Calgary Flames visited the Edmonton Oilers last night.  Of course they hate each other, so it’s like putting your ex-boyfriend in a room with your older brother and letting them duke it out.  The game was both a total mess and really fun to watch. Highlight of the Game: Alex Tanguay’s game-winning shootout goal! […]
