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 […]
The Lightning beat the Flyers 5-1 last night, which means you’ll get to see Stammer’s flowing locks again on 24/7 next week. Oh, and his two sick goals. Tampa Bay is still struggling below .500 and near the bottom of the Eastern Conference, but it’s always fun to beat Philly. Stamkos post-game interview [link] – […]
I missed 24/7 last night because I fell asleep re-watching Fright Night with Colin Farrell. I mean he’s in the movie, he wasn’t with me. And the movie’s great. But I will have to catch up on the Rangers/Flyers this weekend, and from the sound of your Tweets there is plenty worth watching! Another thing […]
Thanksgiving is full of awkward family moments, like 200 photos from your aunt’s trip to Boca Raton or the excruciating detail of Uncle Harold’s last doctor’s appointment. Hockey players are just like us. From the beginning where Nealmobile is squinting at the cue card to the end when they don’t stop rolling tape for a good five […]
Hurkey durkey, Turkey! We know you’re all thankful for hockey, and this week’s Foxy Friday is just a reminder of all the things in the world there are to celebrate. Dawn & Chuck are out shopping and Intern Jeff Skinner is making sweet potatoes with marshmallows (you should see his apron), so I’m going to […]
Mike Green didn’t make the trip to Winnipeg with the Caps, but he did take his sprained ankle to the Kid Rock show in DC last night. He wore his only favorite sweater (seriously, he wears this more than Toews wears that suit) and that hat that makes me want to throw snowballs. Money was […]
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 […]
Between this weekend and the Hunger Games trailer [link] I am seriously dying over here. Then Brittany sends us this gem! Remember the Friday post where you were all jealous she got to meet Rick Nash? You don’t even know. Is that scruff? Is that almost a mustache, Crosby? Because we have had this talk […]
JamesNeal.com here, reporting for duty. James has been stuck at 9 goals for a while – Kessel Cartman has 11 and Stamkos has 10. Do you think Steven chirps James about passing him in the stats? What if they did it on Twitter? We would die, that’s what. Nealer has 14 points in 15 games, […]
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]. […]
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 […]
While you guys have been listening to me rave about James Neal at an octave usually reserved for boybands and high school quarterbacks… The NHL’s other leading goal-scorer, Phil Kessel Cartman has 7 goals and 12 points in Toronto. He’s historically a fast starter (as is the Nealmobile), only to experience huge production drops later. […]
Greetings from JamesNeal.com. In James Neal news, James Neal scored again in the Pens 4-2 win over Minnesota last night [link]. Oh, you wanted a shiny new Nealmobile highlight reel? (No more rhyming and I mean it!). Here it is, thanks to PensTV [link]. JStaal, Duper and Kunitz also scored and Brent Johnson was first […]
Welcome to another edition of “What’s James Neal Doing today?” here at JamesNeal.com. Oh, right. Thanks to Dawn & Chuck for sharing the love to other teams. He’ll have a new highlight reel soon, but in this Stars reel you can see why Headmaster Shero was all about getting Nealer on board in the ‘Burgh. […]
Sam Kasan’s reports from Penguins practices are daily gold and you should never miss them. But today, it’s truly special [link]. In honor of Crosby being cleared for contact, he dedicates Weezer’s cover of Britney’s “(Hit Me) Baby… One More Time.” (Warning: it sounds a lot like the time I sang it, in costume, at […]
Please take a moment to enjoy the titles of NHL.com’s highlight reel from last night’s Penguins/Capitals game. Intentional or unintentional innuendo hilarity? Since I’m sure you all heard me screaming, you know the Nealmobile scored two goals. The second on request – I literally said, “Please score!” and he did. Immediately. I like a man […]
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 […]
From your partner-in-crime. Yea. Berfdai. Stammer, Tazer, Greener, Sid, and Nealmobile have choreographed something very special for you. You’re welcome.
Is that a good enough reason to post? Gator says she can’t learn more about hockey if that’s all I ever talk about. So the Nealmobile is helping me out – while he did in fact cut his hair, he is also playing like a BEAST so I can demonstrate the importance of statistics. He’s […]
