Sunday, August 26, 2007. Milan Lucic, Captain Canada. If you happen by this blog at least once a month, you ought to know that I am bullish on Vancouver Giants forward Milan Lucic. A guy who could punch a hole through a defense, or a fighter's skull. You can be forgiven if you weren't all that excited back when the Bruins drafted 50th overall in the 2006 Entry Draft. After putting up just 19 points in 62 games, Lucic appeared to be more of a Travis Moen. Type, albeit with superior puglistic skills. The S...

Tuesday, September 09, 2008. Revisiting Rod Brind'Amour's Physical Advantage. Any hockey fan knows that Rod "The Bod" Brind'Amour. Is a fitness fanatic. While he's a smart 2-way centerman with good on-ice vision, his strength has always been that he's stronger and possess more stamina than just about any NHLer to ever lace on a pair of skates. If you already didn't feel enough like a coach potato, the Globe and Mail has another article showing you how Brind'Amour works about 1,000 times harder than you.

Friday, July 11, 2008. Now that the shock of the news of Crown Prince Pavol Demitra. Our lord, Jedi Master, and archbishop of the Church of the Shiny Head. Signing a 2-year deal with the Canucks has abated somewhat, I am composed enough to make a coherent post without going too OMGfanboy on your asses. On the hockey side, this deal is a good one for the Canucks. A 2 year investment at $4mil is both reasonable for the cost and not going to put the Canucks in any sort of bind. On the non-hockey side, this ...

Tuesday, August 31, 2004. Canada 2 - USA 1 - A Solid Start. It certainly was a different experience watching Canada play the US on American TV (ESPN). What the hell are these sweaters about? When did mustard yellow become part of Canada's motiv? Ugheven my mom didn't like them, and she usually likes weird clothes.). Back in Canada, I can always count on high quality, level-headed, and informative coverage. In the USA, I'm subjected to hype over substance. Into JR's coffee, eh! At least JR didn't hide it.

Sunday, September 07, 2008. Weekend Wonderings: Teddy's Angry. Caps owner Ted Leonsis has never been one owner who is afraid to speak his mind, and he's one of the rare sports owners who talks publicly at all. Most owners are content to sit in their country clubs sipping expensive wine and laughing at how many people they laid off this week. And he takes a nice shot as some idiot in the MSM. Perhaps in some American markets. The Canadian economy is still in fairly good shape and the dollar is fine. The N...

Monday, September 15, 2008. Monday Musings: Hockey Burnout. As you might have noticed, the volume of posts on this site has slowed in the past month. Besides the lack of good hockey news, I'm still feeling under the cloud of Blogger Burnout. Even if there is a good story to be had, I just don't have the spark. Remember the story of young Steven Legein. Part of the problem is overzealous hockey parents with dreams of their son becoming the next Sidney Crosby. They're the ones forking out the cash for ...

Monday, May 31, 2004. Team Russia World Cup Roster Nominations - Russian for a Crushin'. Like William Hungs rendition of Take Me Out to the Ballgame, Team Russia is looking pretty fugly right about now. Vik Tikhonov has been replaced, for now, by Zinetula Bilyaletdinov, 49, a former national team defenceman. Tikhonov (pictured). Will still remain on the team as a Senior Consultant, like a cockroach that just wont die, no matter how much Raid you spray on the damn thing. Evgeni Nabokov, SJ. The goaltendin...

Saturday, July 01, 2006. The Hockey Rants Glossary. Bloggers tend to have their own nicknames and vocabulary that they use. Sometimes it's regional, other times it's just a personal style. It adds flavour, much like white pepper and Vegemite. In my case, I have quite a few nicknames and terms that I like to use that might be confusing or new to most people. TERM WHAT IT MEANS. AQ The Acid Queen. Big Mac Al MacInnis. Booby/The Boob Bobby Clarke. Crème Brule Gilbert Brule. Grumpy Bear Todd Bertuzzi. The Og...

The Peerless Prognosticator: The Passion of the Caps Fan
http://peerlessprognosticator.blogspot.com/2007/06/passion-of-caps-fan.html
It's Washington Capitals hockey, all day, all night, all the time . . . or when I get around to it. Sunday, June 17, 2007. The Passion of the Caps Fan. Thirty two seasons…two thousand seven hundred and twelve games. 43 overtime and shootout losses…. Three division championships, two conference finals, one. Cup final . . . no Stanley Cups. What is it about this club that would lead a hockey fan with any self respect to have followed such a team through the years of pain and frustration? Hockeytown, my ass.
