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 [...]

Boston. The new Whoville.

June 23, 2010

It would appear Christmas has come roughly six months early this year for Boston Bruins fans! PC and the Crew (sounds like an early 90’s boy band) swung a lovely deal yesterday sending the poster boy for the Bruins woes, Dennis Wideman, the 15th overall pick this year, and another pick in 2011 to the [...]

22 for 2

June 19, 2010

Lost in the shuffle of me being a generally lazy person, being away, and the Stanley Cup Finals, I have been neglectful of this blog. With Milan and Miller laying on the floor panting, I thought now was as good a time as any to talk a bit about some good news out of the [...]

You Stay Classy, Philadelphia

June 11, 2010

It’s finally over. Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks on winning the Stanley Cup in what I would consider the weirdest hockey season ever. How fitting was it then that Patrick Kane scored a weird goal that seemingly only he saw go in to win it all? I’m telling you, this was a spooky weird season, [...]

Congratulations, Mr. Judd

June 6, 2010

It’s been a very busy week for me since returning from Indianapolis, and the 94th running of the Indianapolis 500. I will spare the gory details, but it’s nice to have a few minutes to sit down and bang this out. Let’s get right to it, shall we?
The word I would use to describe this [...]

Memorial Day Mayhem

May 26, 2010

It’s the Wednesday before Memorial Day, and that can only mean one thing. That’s right, the Hammer and I will be winging our way to Indianapolis for the Greatest Spectacle in Sports in about 8 hours. Hammer has been going so long, I think mechanics were still riding with drivers his rookie year. I am [...]

There are few Words

May 21, 2010

Ugh. All right, I have put this off as long as I possibly could. It has been a full week since the Bruins capped off a monumental collapse by dropping game 7, 4-3. They were up 3-0 in both the game, and the series, and lost both. I say again. Ugh. This sucks.
For those [...]

Goonblog Bringing the Noise

May 3, 2010

As I sit here in the office, in what feels like 95% humidity regarding the storm clouds threatening rain and looking at the Scarlet Tanager in my back yard, I can only think of one thing. Hockey. Granted that can be said of pretty much everything I do, but today as I sit and enjoy [...]

Best DeNiro Voice: I heard Things

April 3, 2010

For those of you that have been following Goonblog for a while now, you know I follow hockey pretty closely. That is to say, I am slightly obsessed with it. OK, fine, it’s my reason for being. Having said that, there are two teams I follow with closer attention than others. The Boston Bruins in [...]

Not Blaming the Bruins

March 20, 2010

For those of you not in the Boston or Pittsburgh area, or may have been off planet under a rock with your fingers in your ears and your eyes shut, the big rematch between the Penguins and the Bruins happened on Thursday. I am thankful it is over, as I can stop listening to dipshit [...]
