Turn out the Lights

October 16, 2011

Finally the Bruins have gotten on the board with a fight last night in Chicago. Nice work by Gregory Campbell to try to spark the boys. Not much of a scrap, but good on Soupy to get it started. The fight I wanted to talk about happened Thursday between Pittsburgh’s Arron Asham, and Washington’s Jay [...]

You Will Respect My Authority!

September 24, 2011

Alrighty! Let’s put the negativity of the summer and my last two posts behind us shall we? Why? Its back. Hockey is back! NHL Network has been showing a couple of preseason games a night, and it’s great to see their commitment to the pre- season. It was also great to see Kathryn Tappen in [...]

Beginning of the End of Fighting in the NHL?

September 17, 2011

I really don’t want this to come across as cold, and selfish, but does anyone else worry that the recent deaths of enforcers in the NHL will have negative ramifications on the ice? The harsh reality is that we live in a world of knee jerk reactions. Someone gets killed on a road; speed bumps [...]

And Yabo Makes Three

July 25, 2010

It’s decided. The 2010 Center Ice Team for me is the New York Islanders. I can’t say I’ve ever decided on a team this early, but with the addition of the uber scary Jeremy Yablonski to an already formidable line up of goons, I’m there. Yablonski will probably be assigned to Bridgeport, but it’d be [...]

Eastern Conference Staying Gooney

July 11, 2010

The NHL free agency period has been open for 11 days now, and there has been some movement by teams looking to get tougher or stay tough that I have found interesting. Sure there are some serious players left unsigned, but I’d rather know where Derek Boogaard is playing over some guy named Kovulchuk any [...]

To trade, or Not to Trade

June 29, 2010

The NHL Draft was held Friday night, or as I like to call it, the Bruins will take another center party, and the Bruins took a lot of centers. One of them could be the future cornerstone of the franchise, Tyler Seguin, and another is probably being stalked by The Ref as we speak. Apparently [...]

Trevor being Trevor

April 17, 2010

For those of you that were working yesterday and not scouring the internet for enforcer news (you’re welcome by the way) it seems Goonblog favorite, Trevor Gillies has been rewarded with a one year pact with the Islanders. I have been a big fan of the Gill-Man since his days with the Worcester Icecats, and [...]

Gillies vs. Orr I

March 14, 2010

It is with the nerves of an expectant father that I am watching the clock today. MOL has been given the television until 5, and she is welcome to stay and watch as the Islanders and Maple Leafs square off. I think if Trevor Gillies does dress today, there is no way he and Colton [...]

Good Luck, Trevor!

January 30, 2010

The Bruins lost 2-1 last night, and other than the fact they couldn’t stay out o the box, and couldn’t finish their chances per usual, I think it was the best game compete level wise in quite some time. Here’s hoping they can replicate the effort from last night, and put a couple more past [...]

Top 10 Hockey Enforcers of the Decade

December 20, 2009

As the end of the decade approaches there are a million different "Top…" lists floating around the web. The Ref and I have been heavily debating the Top 50 Comedies of the 00′s and we both agree Stepbrothers is getting royally shafted. Naturally, The Hangover is coming in tops on a lot of lists. It’s [...]
