Eric Lindros & Scotty Bowman (Featuring Brian Campbell)

If you’re reading this post and looking for deep meaningful songs by hockey players… you’re almost right. Don’t judge and blog by its title! 
Perez Hilton reports that Kate Hudson is re-dating (and/or re-befriending) former Dallas Star, Eric Lindros.
Hmm? She hearts the superstrong athletes.
And if you watched the NHL Network, PRESS CONFERENCE TIME!!!! Formerly with Detroit as front office [...]

Thomas!

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm. I don’t know.
Thankfully, the Sabres have given us some player season stats to discuss until Connolly spews another genius pickup line or another football player stirs up a pot of controversy. I mean… until we hear back from Jason Pominville. Thomas Vanek stats!
Non-douchebagists of the world, let’s evaluate Thomas.

He only missed one game in [...]

Just A Tidbit

There’s no intro or segue into this statement but, Tom Golisano is ranked at #743 on Forbes “The World’s Billionaires” list (239th in America).
In. The. World.
He’s right next to the guy who inherited Gap and a pioneer in cable television (or bought Woodstock, whatever). I’m not sure how he compares to other NHL owners but [...]

Differentiation With Dani

I was reading this magazine from Macy’s filled with expensive jewelry I can’t afford ($18,300?!) and I thought about branding. I just realized I have no clue how my blog is perceived by the blogosphere. It’s not that I really care – that’s a lie – I hope I don’t come off as an obsessive, [...]

Five Not Gross Things Around The NHL

5. Applying to blog for the NY Islanders. Scratch that. When NHL rookies and team owners blog. If we asked nicely, do you think Tom Golisano would blog?
4. Q&A’s with topics such as Jamie Langenbrunner’s Captaincy role with the Devils, Ryan Malone’s fate decided by a fortune cookie (… in bed my pants) and “They Should Know Better” segments with the Blues featuring Dan [...]

Five Gross Things Around The NHL

5. The Dallas Stars announced their new “2008-2009 Stars Planet Tan Ice Girls.”
4. The amount of Stanley Cups shown in this picture. It’s kind of funny if you think about it. Eleven times and three in row.
If I cried, would it be normal?
3. Ty Conklin is featured on the first page of Wild’s site [...]

Two For One Deal

… I’ve been slacking.
Yesterday, I got two shout outs (!). One was on the “kick ass addition” of AllMediocre. I’m soooo honored they think I’m kick ass! You know how teachers always say, “If you believe it, you can achieve it blah blah blah crap?” Well, if you believe you’re kick ass and you write [...]

Is This Really Necessary? Probably Not.

I feel I should’ve voiced my opinions of Ryan Miller’s contract a tad earlier. I’m sure I could write and site with reliable sources (cannot include Wikipedia) eight pages on why Ryan Miller is an appropriate choice of starting goaltender, how I think his contract is very reasonable (compare and contrast his contract with other [...]

Sometimes Commercials Are Wonderful

I love this (minus the girls)!

Center Of Your Attention

Ryan Malone Vs. Zach Parise. It’s on.
While I take five hours to decide which is the better looking winger, let’s vote for our Centers. Sorry, bunnies, no Tim Connolly (ha haaaa). There is a Vincent. And yes, I still forget my name, thank you for asking. I’m glad you remembered.
If I still have to hold your [...]
