#CAMP may be over, but camps are just beginning. Invitees for Team Canada’s Olympic camp were arriving in Calgary all weekend, as documented by this airport employee: Source: Twitter There is a space for volunteers. AND IT IS BLANK. Alas, the enterprise of TSN is not to be underestimated. They were live on the scene […]
Sorry it’s been so quiet around here! Chuck has been swamped and I’ve been away for work. Luckily the internet is everywhere, even during the off-season. Last week the Rangers, Devils and Islanders promoted the pair of outdoor games they’ll play at Yankee Stadium in January as part of the NHL’s Stadium Series. Welcome to […]
Knowing that Stamkos, Neal and Tavares are friends off the ice, the imaginary chirping that goes on in my head over the NHL goal scoring leaderboard is tremendous. For anyone who’s ever enjoyed NFL QBs Talkin’ on Facebook, I bring you this. Stammer – I’ve got 17 goals in 23 games. How you guys doing […]
It’s not my fault I’ve seen this commercial a hundred times. It’s on during the break in every Canadian telecast! Canada, I love you. Also, today is Max Talbot’s birthday. I forget about Max for stretches of time (blinded by the orange), but he deserves some birthday attention. Why are John Tavares and Matt Duchene […]
Today’s productivity will officially be… SQUAT. Please tell me this CCM Pro Summit camp in Vail back in November was like regular summer camp, and they’re rehearsing an end-of-season Talent Show dance routine. Kellerman’s, anyone? I carry a mean watermelon. Look at Duchene desperately trying to avert his eyes. Look away, look away… or just […]
In case you were getting nervous about the CBA deadline looming on Saturday, somewhere in Colorado… Crosbot, Gabe the Babe, Talbot, Duchene, Tavares and RNH were traning at Pro Summit Camp. That short of breath feeling has nothing to do with altitude, y’all. It’s just like summer camp, with Max as head counselor. There are […]
Suddenly there is a deluge of proof that hockey players believe this season will happen. Every time a bell rings, Intern Jeff Skinner does a squat. Oh wait, everyone does squats. It’s a Foxy Friday party in the gym. Video: Intern Jeff Skinner has great legs (bonus: James Neal) This is my serious face. There’s […]
True story: My first-ever NHL game was a NY Islanders game. In 1990. The year John Tavares was born. We love an over-achiever here at WUYS, so we’re naturally fond of John Tavares. He was just 5 days too young to qualify for the 2008 Entry Draft (at 17), and the NHL would not […]
Not the epic movie musical, just the stories that I felt like sharing today… Jonathan Toews took a puck to the face last night. I yelled “NOT THE FACE!” so loud the neighbors thought I was watching Top Model. I’d prefer he not get hit anywhere, but let’s leave the facial sacrificing to Duncan Keith. […]
