Foxy Friday: David Rundblad

With a name like @letsgofriday, she should know how to pick a Foxy Friday.  And boy did she ever. Foxy Friday: David Rundblad I have never (ever, not once) heard of this guy.  That’s pretty rare.  So I Googled him and this popped up: First thought: Where has he been all our Fridays?! Second thought: […]

Don’t Stop the Pop

Hockey is a taskmaster.  It does not care that we’ve put off our lives for the last six months.  It has no sympathy for my split ends, ragged cuticles or pile of overdue library books.  Hockey doesn’t pause just because Jonathan Toews is on a bender and I want to watch the Blackhawks parade. Patrick […]

All Aboard the StruggleBus

One might have assumed my lockout-induced honeymoon period would last longer than four days. WRONG. Greetings from the StruggleBus.  Last night’s Capitals home opener looked a lot like their season opener in Tampa Bay.  As in: I reminded myself that the upside to losing is ticket prices stay low. The Caps are not, by any […]

Foxy Friday: The Future

With the NHL lockout looming over us like that creepy guy at work always looking over your shoulder at your computer, we’re starting to worry. A large part of our anxiety is that if the NHL does lockout, we will be denied a new shiny batch of Foxy Fridays to choose from.  And that is […]

Pancakes For Everyone – Uno, Dos, Adiós!

My cats have banned me from the TV. Osiris Jones actually mews at anyone who swears. True Story. And there was a ton of it tonight. I swear like a sailor and many of Mr. Cherrie’s friends think I learned it from him but actually, I taught him pretty much everything he knows. My grandfather worked […]

Western Conference: Gm 5ive

Tonight the Kings will try again to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals.  They’ve lost just two games in three rounds. The @LAKings Twitter feed is spectacular, full of things only Judge Judy could get away with saying in a courtroom.  I’d just like to remind the Washington Capitals that I’m available for snarky and potentially trouble-making […]

Ugly Still Gets It Done

Last night’s game was like the first episode of The Bachelorette. 25 suitors vying for one slightly used but marginally OK single mom. Not a lot of rough stuff – Shane Doan with yet another penalty, a few taunts, a couple of chest puffs but all in all, a tight game with one impression rose […]

Our Post on Puck Daddy – NHL Playoff Beard Watch: Alternate Captains

The letter “A” is awarded only to the best. Students with the highest scores. Products with the best quality. Restaurants with the cleanest kitchens. We all know Alvin didn’t lead The Chimpmunks just because he had the best dance moves. The very presence of an “A” denotes greatness. We love (OK, worship) our NHL team […]

Kings Kickin' Butt

So the LA King’s have lost only one play-off game so far … No, that is not a typo. ONE. Coach Dave Tippett of the Coyotes, seems to be the only other person on the planet besides me, the only LA KINGS fans (OK – I know there are like – four of us) who know […]

Foxy Friday: Shane Doan

I forgot it’s Friday!  One night with zero hockey and I lose my mind, people. Good thing I had already selected this week’s Foxy Friday: Shane Doan. Things that are foxy: – Birthdays the day, but not the year, before mine (Libras FTW!) – Smiling even more than Intern Jeff Skinner – Wilderness activities – Eligible […]

Chewbacca and the Ewoks Sent Packing

For those of you keeping count, last night the Jawas sent Chewie and the Ewoks packing. I think there was a grand disturbance in the force when Chewie tapped into the dark side and smashed Hans Solo’s head into the boards in an earlier series and sometimes karmic galactic payback is a bitch. Chewie will now be able […]

Shanabanned: Who's Not?

At Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon in Austin, TX, every Sunday night they play Chicken Sh*t Bingo.  It’s exactly what it sounds like – feed a chicken, turn it loose on a tabletop bingo board and wherever it takes a crap, that number goes on the board. I’m pretty sure this is also how the NHL […]

Principal's Office

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 […]

Foxy Friday: Taylor & Tom Pyatt

Allow me to set a scene, one I bet happened in each of your very early histories: Doctor: “Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Parents of Future WUYS Reader.  You’re having a beautiful baby girl.” Mom and Dad: “Yes!” Dad quickly adds: “We will never live in Thunder Bay, Ontario.” Taylor and Tom Pyatt, brothers and fellow […]

Around The League In Milestone Minutes

 It was a banner weekend ladies as many of our men made history and milestones: chillin in the dome with Jerome: Iggy got his 500th goal.  Teemu got his 651st goal by the end of the night.  Little Danny Briere put on his big boy pants and got in his third ever fight and had […]

Drew Doughty Is a Sexy Beast = LA Kings In The Playoffs!

By the Power of Gray Skull! Evidently God decided to touch not only Drew (“It might be a huge one”),  she decided to touch a couple of  LA Kings last night (oh please – I would so like to switch places for one day!) and put them into the plaaaaaay ooooooffffsss! Let me hear a […]

The Headline's Hot

The long weekend is over, it’s back to work and you know what I feel like?  Chuck loves it too: I tried to watch the Heritage Classic, but I couldn’t focus my eyes on the bizarre non-color of the Flames shorts.  Is that taupe?  Nude, maybe?  If you’re going to commit to sweaters and socks […]

$1 Beers For This? You Betcha!

The Coyotes really know how to party! Only in a place where it gets to be like a million degrees would they give away a wearable fleece blanket.  Beer for a buck?  I am so there. But does it come with a belt? Because that is what is in for this Spring – EVERYONE knows […]

The 'Hit's' Just Keep Coming!

Biznasty’s been busy but not on the ice. If you are in the Arizona area, pick up your free copy of Scottsdale’s Men’s Health because this month’s cover boy is none other than Paul Bissonnette! (video here) Teammate Keith Yandle does a fabulous interview to help his teammate promote the ‘free’ publication and much like Ovi, you get the […]

Foxy Friday: BizNasty

I’ve been giving out faux Foxy Fridays all week, but it’s time for the real deal.  Today’s Foxy Friday is none other than Paul Bissonnette himself.  If you follow Biz on Twitter (@biznasty2point0) then you don’t need us, you’re already in love with him. Biz is a character (to say the least), but he is […]
