Tim Thomas: Goalie Berserker

One of THE best analysis of Timmy Thomas and his unorthodox style.  Totally spot on. From NHL.com (Goalie matchup: Canadiens-Bruins) Justin Goldman chooses Tim Thomas, Boston Bruins:Tim Thomas is a true goaltending enigma. Everything he does is the complete opposite of what today’s elite butterfly goalie is taught to do. He is the world’s finest “read-and-react” goaltender and […]

Bruins vs. Habs – Fight Fest: The Sequel?

Last time the Bruins and the Canadiens faced each other, they combined for 187 minutes of penalty minutes.  (see my post about it here) That is 3 hours and 7 minutes of shame. Or triumph, depending on who you are rooting for. The teams also scored 14 goals between them. And the Bruins won.  So […]

Boston Garden aka The House of Pain

I’m exhausted. Last night’s Canadiens/Bruins game was epic.  The craziest 60 minutes of hockey I’ve ever seen.  Seriously.  Ever. Every game between these long time rivals is emotional charged but this was ridiculous.  Ridiculously AWESOME.  I started to write this post last night, but was too emotionally exhausted so I went to sleep to collect […]

More Goalies Gone Wild – Sort Of.

Timmy the Tank and Carry Price got into it tonight but it wasn’t exactly an epic throw down ala puncher-roo Brent Johnson and you couldn’t even call it a Mike Green-slapfest. It was more like a gigglefest between two teen-age girls who got carried away with some hair pulling. Because although all hell broke loose between Montreal and the Bruins […]

ASG Weekend #2: Skills Competition

Hockey players have mad skills. And what better way to showcase them, than with the always fun Super Skills Competition. So here are the results… Faster Skater – Michael Grabner (14.238 seconds) Breakaway – Alexander Ovechkin (38.5% of the fan votes). Accuracy – Daniel Sedin (4 for 4 in 7.3 seconds) Skills Challenge Relay – […]

"Red Sox all summer but the Winter is…Black and Yellow"

This song = tioght.  *gets gangsta* Also awesome is the fight at the 2:08 mark, featuring former Bruin PJ Stock. He straight messes that guy up! (Thanks to Chocolate Iced, for sending it to me.  He is a true friend.)

Will Someone Please Explain.

So I just finished watching my Kings spank the Bruins, sorry Chuck. I sent you a text. Touched by God had an assist and it was a shut out – 2-0 on Timmy the Tank – not since 2000 have the Kings blanked the Bruins and they have beat the Bruins the last 5 times – […]

The Professor Gets an A++ and the Killer B's Attack

Last night, the Bruins faced off against the struggling Ottawa Senators and WUYS fave (and Foxy Friday honoree) Patrice Bergeron notched is first career hat-trick in the Bs 6-nil win over the Sens. The Garden crowd thought that Bergy got the hat trick at 14:07 of the 2nd and launched their caps on to the […]

Oops. Did I Do That?

Not a good weekend for some goalies. Tim Thomas ended up watching this one go straight down the five hole LITERALLY. Which was a complete oddity given that Timmy the Tank was playing so well. When I saw it happen live I was screaming at the TV and Mr. Cherrie because I had sent him to kitchen to get […]

Hockey Fans are the BEST!

Puck Daddy did a Hockey Fan art contest on his blog and here are some of the winners. They are truly works of art which makes me think that next year, we at WUYS should have our very own contest but it should be limited to Ovi, Sid, Geno, Mikey and a few other players […]

Foxy Friday – Tim Thomas

Subtitle: Old dudes need love too! I love my friend Pants dearly.  She’s made me Ramen noodles more than a few times when I was drunk and for this I am forever grateful.  But I’m starting to worry about her and her unhealthy obsession with underage and/or barely of age hockey players.   It was starting to make me feel sort of like a dirty […]
