At the 1:28 mark of this post-practice interview from yesterday, watch how James Neal responds to being reunited on-ice with Malkin. It’s like his first day back at school, seeing that girl he had a crush on last year. In actual hockey news (sigh of relief), it looks like James is going to play the […]
You knew it would happen. No one can be this hilarious and adorable (and talented) without landing in the Foxy Friday history books. Also, as a Pens fan, I know that life without Geno is a cold, sad place in which James Neal scores no goals. I could (and might) look at pictures of Evengi […]
Chuck and I need a brain-cleansing after reading that disturbingly crazy stuff at Crossing Broad. As per usual, Geno to the rescue! What are your shorts? What is your hat? I can’t even come up with a name for the thing around your waist to ask what it might be. The orange trucker hat really […]
Did everyone enjoy the Nickelback Convention last night? The Awkard Turtle Unfunny Comedy Tour? There were a few bright spots, like Will Arnett. Especially when he shanabanned Ovi for blocking Brooks Laich’s parking spot and sentencing him to ride on the back of Mike Green’s scooter. WHY CAN’T THIS BE REAL LIFE? While peering between […]
Tonight’s the night. NHL Awards in Las Vegas! Bring on the attractive hockey players in impeccably fitted suits. Bring on the awkward (and hilarious) red carpet interviews. Bring on the D-list celebrities who can’t pronounce the winner’s name (Martin St. Lewis!). Here’s who we think is going to bring on the hardware… Hart (Lundqvist/Malkin/Stamkos) Should: Chuck […]
For a few days after something bad happens, you don’t want to be cheered up. You want to drown in a cocktail shaker or eat an entire wedding cake. If you’re me, you picked a bright orange heavy bag and kickboxed the crap out of it a la Captain America. Then life goes on. Other […]
Last night was not good for anyone. Sidney took a puck to the face. I’ve said “not the face!” many times, but never at such volume. Sid bled everywhere and then did what hockey players do best, let it stop and kept playing. Well, it didn’t totally stop. He will play tonight against Buffalo, a […]
Ohhhh, HAT trick. I thought you said PANT trick. That’s how my jeans ended up on the ice. Could I have them back? Nealmobile had a hat trick last night! It was the second of his career and first with the Penguins, for a whopping 37 goals on the season. Goal #1: Stand There, Look […]
As the resident Ovechkin fan, I’m used to being odd-man-out so I’m just going to go for it today in this edition of: With the return of Crosby, is it REALLY a good idea? I give you the following reasons: 1. Chemistry – Malkin is ON F*CKING FIRE. His run for the Hart trophy could be […]
Geno: You said 7:30. James: I said 6:30. Geno: My English is not so good. James: … We all know when the Nealmobile episode of NHL 36 premieres: TOMORROW.
Sid and the Pens held a press conference yesterday to prove that he still looks this good in a suit. Also to clarify the neck injury he was diagnosed with by an LA doctor – it’s a “soft tissue” injury, not broken vertebrae. He was treated in LA with injections to relieve the swelling and […]
When Mr. Pants and I boarded our flight in Houston on Saturday, I had NO idea there would be individual TVs on the plane. Then I saw the All-Star Game Skills Competition was on. I may have screamed. One swipe of the AMEX later, I was sitting an inch from the screen with a huge […]
Tonight’s the night, and it’s not Santa coming to town. Jaromir Jagr will bring his orange sweater to Pittsburgh for the first time. Jagr played 11 seasons with the Penguins before being traded to the Capitals, then the Rangers. After the ’08 season, he returned to the Czech Republic and played three years in their […]
Sorry, what were you saying? JamesNeal.com couldn’t hear anything over the Penguins scoring four goals in 10:30 last night vs. Colorado. The Pens were down 3-2 when the second period began. Then this happened: Nealmobile was 1st star with 1 G/2 A and infallible facial hair grooming. Can I tell you why? There’s a guy […]
Just surrender. You are no match for the Penguins annual calendar shoot. It’s not like we put up much of a fight, but breaking out the puppies is like dropping a birthday cake through the sunroof of our glittery private jet. Get on board, we have treats! I am dying from all the adorbs [video link]. […]
Love, Geno & Sid Geno Tweeted this picture. I’m voting Geno for President at this point.
Today at JamesNeal.com: James Neal scored last night (we bet he did) in the Pens 3-2 win over the Islanders. It wasn’t just a goal – Neal scored the first and only 5-on-4 power play goal the Islanders have given up all season. He doesn’t just score. He breaks your streaks and ruins your percentages, […]
You guys are so nice! Sending me all this James Neal stuff to make sure I don’t miss anything… Nealmobile did not have a goal in last nights’ 3-0 win over the Islanders, but he did have a team-high 5 shots on goal. And a team high hairdo. Kessel Cartman has 9 goals to Nealer’s […]
All other NHL teams have officially been put on notice. We wish more teams would highlight their talent like this. And by highlight, we mean take insanely attractive glamour shots of their players and create calendars which we can buy and hang in our offices and sigh dreamily over as we format excel spreadsheets, take […]
Last night before the Pens home opener, look who got interviewed? My birthday indeed. The Nealmobile also had a goal, along with Dupuis, Cooke and Park in the Pens 4-1 win over Florida. Tanger had another assist and leads the NHL in both points (6) and assists (5). And hair. Flower leads the League with […]
