It’s getting hot in here, and Brendan Shanahan’s phone was ringing off the hook yesterday. Three players face disciplinary hearings for offenses committed during Saturday’s run of show… 1. Carl Hagelin Former Foxy Friday and Ryan Gosling stun- double Carl Hagelin is not known for throwing elbows and getting dirrrty. But the playoffs make people […]
There is no accounting for taste in our household. Traitors abound. Mr. Cherrie is a hard-core Buffalo fan. But when I went to consult my bookie, I mean my oracle- the great swami Osiris Jones, man about town and counselor at law, when he’s not picking NHL play-off games for cat treats, much to my horror this is what […]
It can be tough to explain fighting to someone who doesn’t watch hockey. Try explaining this: Three seconds into the game (yes, first period), the Rangers and Devils had three simultaneous fights break out. That’s barely enough time to make a “Yo Mama” joke! Gloves and helmets, report to the ice surface. So what’s […]
It’s official. We’ve done lost our minds. Commit us to the looney bin. Get us some stylish straight jackets and lock us in that padded room with Justin Timberlake and his weird blond curly ‘fro. Why you ask? Well, first of all, three of the last six Foxy Friday have been New York Rangers. Three! […]
In the middle of the ASG Skills Competition I looked up and said, “Who the hell is that?” I knew Ryan Gosling was Canadian, but…. It was Carl Hagelin, of course. The 23-year old Swede has 8 goals/10 assists in 31 games for the Rangers this season. He was a late addition to the ASG Rookie […]
Chicago’s Dan Carcillo has been suspended 7 games for boarding Edmonton’s Tom Gilbert [link]. Gilbert missed the Oiler’s next game and is listed as day-to-day. Carcillo is a repeat offender (and a goon) – he was suspended 2 games for this hit on Carolina’s Pittkanen on 10/28. Guest Starring Rob Blake!! Calgary’s Rene Bourque got a […]
Damn you, HBO. Damn you to the 7th level of hell with your evil ways and your trickery. Damn you for making me fall in love with NHL players that I should hate. Take Brian Boyle, for example. I should hate Brian Boyle. And by hate, I mean HAAAAAAATE. Like fire of a thousands suns […]
I’m way behind and just watched the first two episodes of 24/7. I very nearly had to Foxy Friday every ten seconds of this show. The Universe and tigers and kids in sleds and every word Tortorella says… But we went with Ryan Callahan. Last year I stayed a whole month with NYRFan Stephanie. She […]
Tonight is the premiere of HBO’s 24/7 Flyers/Rangers: Road to the NHL Winter Classic. And since I’ve re-watched Game of Thrones into oblivion, I will be tuning in to get my $10 worth for December. The WUYS crowd won’t be as excited as last season – including me, since I actively hate both of these […]
Sean Avery has been placed on waivers by the Rangers. It’s like the episode of 24 where Kim Bauer went hiking in Los Angeles, got cornered by a cougar and had to be rescued by a hillbilly in a bunker. If she were real, she’d still be dating this jackass. Read all about it on […]
I swear before I saw the photo I thought this might have been Pants & Gator or Pants & her friend NY Ranger fan or Pants & Chuck or Chuck & a friend. Some combination above. And they were going to run 10 blocks to get me Ovi’s autograph and tell him how much I love him since I was stuck […]
So Sean Avery is a moron. In other news, water is wet. Avery was arrested early this morning for shoving a Hollywood, CA police office who was responding to a noise complaint about a loud party at Avery’s house [link, and yes I picked the TMZ one on purpose]. He must have had The Hangover […]
The biggest question of the 2011 Free Agent market has been answered. And the winner is… NYR Fan Steph. The Rangers have given Brad Richards a 9 year deal worth $58.5 million. [NHL.com] Other teams that may have asked Brad to dance were Toronto, Calgary, LA, Tampa Bay and Philly. How the Flyers have any […]
Chuck and I may have had a class with Chris Drury at BU our freshman year. No one remembers for sure. We obviously learned a lot in “Rocks for Jocks” or whatever we were studying, and that knowledge comes in handy today when identifying the sediment strata of the landscape in pictures of Jonathan Toews […]
This week’s beard update. Here’s where it stands. The Sedin’s are disqualified because they always have one and it’s always groomed. Shea Weber started too early but I’ll include him solely because of its sheer awesomeness but he’s out of the running and same goes for George Parros. And believe it or not, there is actually an attractive […]
Dude, remember that time Jordan Staal knocked you to the ice with a single punch? You went down like shot of tequila. From here it looked like this: Staalsy got a 5-minute major, then a match penalty. He’s automatically suspended for the Penguins next game unless the NHL intervenes. We say Prust could steal Natalie […]
Since NYRFan Stephanie is about to become my landlady, I was going to post Marion Gaborik’s goal extravaganza vs. Toronto last night. But I got distracted by the pop-up on the Rangers site: Let’s just say that if Steph could get back east, she would love to double down with these two. Last night’s game […]
Watching the AWESOME Winter Classic and Fabulous Washington Capital’s 3-1 Win over the Pens holding whining Slew-Foot Sid pointless MADE MY NEW YEAR! Welcome 2011! But the bizarre camera angles and annoying comentary from NBC made me wish my fellow WUYS tweeters had access to the CBC feed. Because Mr. Cherrie and I would have rather watched our lovely Canadian’s […]
I hate the Rangers, but I love this photo. I love this idea! Someone is being adorbs today. All teams should do this when they add someone to Twitter: welcome @michaeldelzotto. Our resident NYR fan Stephanie is doing her happy dance.
… is being sooooooooo cloooooooooooose… ugh, I hate the guy from Rascall Flatts’ voice but there is no other way to describe Pittsburgh’s loss to the Rangers last night. Unless you’re Mr. Pants and (just to be an ass) you’re suddenly a Rangers fan who wants a vintage jersey. Shut up or you’re paying for […]
