We Will Become Unconscious

Well, most of us anyway.  The NHL debuted their new ad campaign over the weekend: Questions Will Become Answers. I thought this slogan was kinda lame until I saw the videos.  ARE YOU KIDDING ME? (Sorry CI, but a girl needs a moment here.)  Did I make an entire ad campaign and completely forget?! Because […]

le Foxy Friday – Max Talbot

Pants’ Turn! It’s 6:30 AM and I am doing Foxy Friday. Before I take a nap under my desk. Since Dawn Cherrie was so mean to Maxime Talbot last week, this week WUYS is giving him some love. So what if he called Ovi a “douche”? We were all thinking it! (Okay, okay, I’ll stop.) […]

About last night…

Merry Christmas to us! I have to get HBO and a bigger text messaging plan for this.  Maybe I could just get a red phone that rings every time Dawn wants to squeal about Ovi’s man/bear-ness or send me photos of her “Sidney Crosby Sucks” t-shirt. NHL, HBO announce 24/7 series featuring Washington Capitals, Pittsburgh […]

And so it begins

Happy pre-season!  Nine games were played last night, many featuring younger and 3rd/4th line guys who hope to make the teams and become household names in two weeks.  A few highlights: – Alex Tanguay notched 2 assists and was named first star against Vancouver in mini-game, split-squad action.  Woot! – Ducks players who weren’t on […]

Everybody into the pool!

Training camps opened Friday and over the weekend a lot of people (who weren’t me) got to see some pre-season hockey.  It looks like the Blackhawks had the most fun, as the Champs should, by hosting their annual Training Camp Festival including… wait for it… a rollerblading race!  Mr. Pants is very jealous because he […]

In today’s top stories…

Here at WUYS, we delight in carrying the banner for you.  While wearing short pants and jaunty caps, perhaps with a choreographed dance routine (remixed to Lady Gaga?)  From the Morning News Desk:  T-minus 3 weeks until the season starts! 1) Penguin’s forward Jordan Staal will miss the start of the regular season after another […]

Dammit Geno (Episode 1)

It’s NHL Media Tour day in NYC and there will certainly be tons of fun photos floating around by this afternoon (all over Twitter already!).  They might as well give up now because I don’t see how they can top this: DAMMIT GENO! What are you doing?  Evgeni Malki (ak.a. Alternate Captain Awkward Turtle) has […]

Penguins calling!

Every year, teams whore out their players to deliver season tickets for photo ops.  I wonder – how strongly do they vet these lucky recipients first?  Because I could totally act normal.  Then if Sid or Max (or Kris or Flower…) rang my doorbell, we would have a hostage situation.  Even in those shoes. Video […]

Go Staalsy, it's your birthday.

Happy 22nd birthday, Jordan Staal! So you didn’t grow up next to the Staal’s sod farm in Thunder Bay, Ontario? Neither did we – and they don’t make ‘boys next door’ like this in the US. Jordan’s done a lot in his 22 years: drafted 2nd overall, in his rookie year he was the youngest […]

Crosby Brings it Home

Sidney Crosby continued his casual campaign for world dominance today by hitting a batting practice home run at PNC Park.   Sid, who could get arrested for indecency while wearing shorts, went yard on his second round of pitches.  Somebody get Theo on the phone – next time the Pens bow out in May, I expect […]

Sid's Dryer

Testing out a video post, as well as a post with more than a few lines of text.  I’m watching A Knight’s Tale, but it’s past the choreographed dancing scene so I supposed I could go to sleep.  After I try to de-bug this thing a little more…
