Whew! That a day that was. It felt like the every NHL player got dumped into a bingo spinner and names were plucked at near-random. Toss in a few hours of top-stress soccer and Tuesday never wore me out so much. The carnage is far from complete, but look who made a new life plan […]
This took forever today because I was having too much fun. It’s time! Time for turtles and Minnesota accents and the true, though somewhat unsung, love of Penguins fans everywhere. Unless you are me, Lindsay or Alison, then there is a lot of singing. Foxy Friday: Matt Niskanen Most of you met Nisky that time […]
I was really going to do a post about this Winnipeg Jets’ cookbook… so close. They Instagrammed something and being married to a chef, I was hooked! Sadly the video is a yawn but those wings looked pretty delish. It’s for charity and so, yeah. Off to the interwebs to find something to care about. […]
If I were the Penguins coach (or a mom, high school principal, etc.), I imagine there would be a lot of exchanges like this one from the new episode of In the Room [video]: James Neal being a shit. Me not stopping till Neal owned up to his problem out loud. Kunitz’s face. Followed immediately […]
Someone in the Penguins PR department is developing our sense of humor. While the San Jose Sharks still win for the best ever fake Christmas CD [video], followed by the Blackhawks and Toews’ HOF derp-face [video], this year’s holiday effort by the Penguins is pretty hilarious. Video: Pittsburgh Penguins 2013 Holiday Card Made during Movember, […]
Before you look at these photos, go to the Animal Rescue League website and order a Penguins & Paws 2014 Calendar. Support adorable, fuzzy faces of the four-legged variety! Huge thanks to @alisonsykora‘s mom Heidi, who took pictures of every page with her phone for us. She likes James Neal the best because she’s a […]
The power of Foxy Friday is surprising. Players have an eerie tendency to over-perform immediately after being featured – and it’s not always a good thing for us. When NYI’s Matt Martin pretty much ruined my life in Game 2 vs. the Penguins, I promised not to foxify anyone from an opposing team for the […]
Sundays should be easy. Could someone please inform my hockey teams? Penguins 2, Flyers 1 – OT The past two seasons, the Flyers have ended big win streaks for the Pens. Not last night!! It took a while, until Crosby PPGed so hard he almost fell over. He is a little back-heavy, after all. .gif by […]
Sweetie, your prom date is here. You’re dad’s thinking, “Whew. My daughter’s safe with this dork.” Sorry to be late – the Penguins annual Skates & Plates benefit was a few days ago. You know, the one where they get dressed up and try not to drop food on themselves, people, the floor give us […]
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 […]
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]. […]
