Happy Birthday Mr. Hockey!

March 31, 2006

Happy 78th to Mr. Gordie Howe.

In my opinion, Mr. Hockey is the second best player to ever lace em up. Right behind Robert Gordon Orr, who also had a birthday recently, and right in front of #99. He also has the most Canadian first name of all time. The man’s totals tell it all:

1767 GP

801 [...]

Bruins Looking Good – Literally

March 31, 2006

No, not on the ice you silly goose - on my TV. That’s right boys, Goonblog is watching in style. As of 8:30 EST there is a 42" HD Plasma in Goonblog HQ. Currently, MOL is enjoying a bit of the OC in HD, but I am gearing up for a take over soon. The first [...]

Daniel Briere, Greg Louganis – Separated at Birth?

March 30, 2006

Who knew Buffalo’s diving Team was so good? I am disgusted. In the New NHL nothing can be done about the crap that was being pulled by the Sabres last night. In the Old NHL, the two tough guys would have duked it out. In this new era, the Sabres made a mockery of hockey, [...]

What About the Pro Ranks?

March 22, 2006

Thanks for the stats on Max, Hammer. He should wear number 8 from now on. It got me thinking about whom the top guys in the AHL are, and since I don’t actually do anything productive at work, here are the stats as of the middle of March. Out West it looks like this:
Darryl Bootland, [...]

May I Have a Right Please, Sir?

March 15, 2006

Old time hockey for a bit up North last night eh? Domi and Boston’s Dan LaCoutre had a very one sided fight. Domi gave him so many lefts, Lac was begging for a right. Everytime LaCoutre would get his balance; Tie was there to knock him back with another left. You could see the look [...]

I Can’t Believe I am About to do This.

March 13, 2006

I feel like Stinger in Top Gun right now. I have to give Maverick, and Goose their dream shot to go to Top Gun. I gotta send those two clowns to Miramar.
I have to give Hal Gill props on his scrap Saturday night against Eric Godard. Gill started the fight, and I feel he [...]

Lazy Goonblog Weekend

March 12, 2006

MOL and I went to the Garden today to pick up tickets for next Saturday’s tilt against the Hurricanes. I called Dave on the way in and woke him up for the noontime meal. We went over to The Fours for a spot of lunch. Tasty place by the way. I suggest the chowder, and the [...]

Hal Gill – Closet Shit Disturber?

March 11, 2006

I just got back from row 15 Loge at the Garden (many thanks to Lynch for sharing his awesome Christmas present with me) where the Canadiens smited the Bruins 2-0. It was a decent game with the Boston actually spending more time on the offensive than Montreal, but to no avail. Perhaps the Samsonov trade [...]
