Good News. A Headshot Rule….Next Year.

March 10, 2010

One of Goonblog’s biggest fans called me last night, and made an excellent point. To paraphrase, and cut out the profanity, Taz brought up the notion that the NHL GM’s shouldn’t need to come up with a new rule regarding head shots after the Matt Cooke pasting of Marc Savard, they simply need to get [...]

Real Hockey is Back

March 6, 2010

Congratulations Canada, you barely beat America at the game you invented. No, I kid. I saw that on the site, Texts from Last Night. Go there for hilarity. For hockey hilarity, you stay here. Now then, Canada won gold last Sunday in a game I saw maybe 20 seconds of due to a prior engagement. [...]

I Smoked Pot with Charlie Dickens

October 6, 2009

If I may borrow a bit of old Charlie Dickens, this weekend was like the beginning of “A tale of Two Cities”, “It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.” I don’t want to get overly dramatic here, but it really was the best and worst of the Boston Bruins on [...]

In about 11 hours, the hibernation ends. That’s right; the beloved Boston Bruins are skating back onto the ice tonight at 7 PM against the dreaded Washington Capitals. Boston and Washington will both come into tonight’s opener with the weight of huge expectations on their shoulders after both lost out in the second round of [...]

Getting Closer

July 20, 2009

It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here! The NHL announced the schedule for the 2009-2010 NHL season last Wednesday, and I for one, am more excited than Chris Nilan walking into the men’s swimsuit section to find the guard off getting a sandwich. I have gone over the schedule, and chosen a couple of games [...]

Free Agent Frenzy

July 5, 2009

I hope everyone is having a very Happy 4th of July, and Happy (belated) Canada Day to all the Goonsqud in the Great White North. So far free agency has been open for a couple of days. What has developed has been a new GM putting his mark on a franchise, another two or three [...]

Lucic Knows “The Code”

May 14, 2009

A direct quote by Milan Lucic, from the Hockey News who named him this year’s winner of the John Ferguson Award given to the NHL’s toughest player.
“I had to let him get his gloves off, and I caught him clean.”
What he is speaking of is the one punch he gave Mike Komisarek in game 4. [...]

They Poked the Bear

May 12, 2009

It is well documented, that I am not a bright man. Ask anyone. They’ll say, “Good guy. Not bright though.” Well, they might just say the not bright part. Point being, I am very confused as to why Scott Walker lowers the boom on Aaron Ward last night, and gets a $2500.00 fine. No suspension, [...]

New Dog, New Series

April 30, 2009

I’ve had a lot on my mind since the Boston Bruins vanquished the Montreal Canadiens in four games, but I just haven’t been calm enough to write it down. I started to about 10 times, but I got so furious I had to stop. The first round really angered me, and I’m glad it only [...]

Video Proof: Sean Avery is a Punk.

April 5, 2009

Thanks for the Post Ref! I was at the game yesterday, so I didn’t get the benefit of hearing what Brick and Jack had to say about this. I gotta tell you, I totally agree with Andy Brickley on this one. I have no problem with players being a pest. What I take issue with [...]
