21st Aug 2020 - Please rate review and subscribe. thanks. This week Dan and Will talk some Bruins. Particularly Tuuka Rask leaving the bubble and Jack Edwards saying something stupid. Baseball commentator also says something really stupid. Dale Hawerchuk has passed away. Alain Vigneault throws his toys out of the pram because his team was rubbish. Dont hit home runs in baseball cos all sports teams are soft. Players playing injured again. Dops is shit again. Jim Rutherford has finally lost it. The Coyotes are going to rebuild again. Taylor Hall goes where. Gambling could change the rules. MacKinnon v McDavid. Will teams have to be even further under the cap. All this and the usual guff.

This week Dan and Will discuss Grit and Jam versus Skill. Why the NHL needs a Ronnie O Sullivan. Good coaching versus good players. Little talk about the Leafs moving forward. The lottery and what it means for that 1st overall pick. Why trading it is a good idea for the Rangers. Different ways the lottery could be decided. Obviously we have a cheeky little look at the playoffs so far. Why the Preds aren’t very good. Someone has clearly been enjoying the bubble life with some Trojans. What would we like to see happen with the playoffs. All that and the usual guff.

This week Dan and Will discuss comedy and laughing at your own jokes. Live Preds/Yotes game 4 watchalong. Bubble life for the players is weird. The round robin is boring and ultimately pointless. Real people kneeling because hockey people wouldnt. Dan is called an antichrist worshipper. Satinism. We talk about Matt Dumba leading a revolution. The Stars and Knights players taking a knee. Robin Lehner being a changed man. The real playoffs have started and it is BRILLIANT. We take a look at each series stories that we like. Stuff such as James Neal angry old man. Duncan Keith not old anymore. The Canes look good. The scary stuff regarding the Muzzin injury. Is Sid injured? So sorry for the Jets. Tkachuk squad attack! All this and all the other news.

31st July 2020 - Please rate review and subscribe. This week Dan and Will review the games so far. We wonder about Nic Anelka getting his own documentary. The NHL is standing in line to do something but we dont know what. The Pens/Flyers rivalry is not fierce. National anthems for who exactly? I am livid about what Tuuka Rask did. The Avalanche are also trash but its okay because they will do better. WHATEVER! Well done to the Wild and Avs for making the non white players stand away from them. Lou Williams is a top lad. John Chayka is gone from the Yotes and the language used in the release statement shook me. Mitch Marner is doing what to a pillow? We pit ourselves against my wife, my 8 year old daughter, a PS4 and a coin. The first ever 2B1P addendum and a ton of other stuff as well.

This week Dan and Will look at fixing the shootouts by moving to one on one. Would you pick a goalie or a skater for half rink. Would you report a player on an opposite team for breaking the bubble? I would. The Wild have a dress code and its amazing. Will and I discuss what we would wear if we could wear anything. It gets very British. Toews has some weird comments on Covid. Torts and I agree on the Olympics. Would you retire a players number at 17 after one full season. The Kraken are here and its good. I love all of it which means they will fail. All of this and more.

Dan and Will discuss things being cake. How the Brock Boeser trade rumour started? Why it started and what it means for other teams. A stagnant salary cap should make for an interesting time. Players breaking bubble rules and what will happen to them. Players who opted out. Marc Bergevin took a phone call from Karl Alzner. Sidney Crosby as your homework buddy at school must have been awful. The Leafs using refs at practice is genius. Is Brendan Shanahan sexually kinky with refs. Yeah why not? Auston Matthew is up for an award and what an award. Why Alain Vigneault for the Jack Adams is cheating. Some opinions on the Calder and the Masterton. All this and the usual guff.

10th Jul 2020 – This week Dan and will look at the CBA. Will thinks it’s interesting. Dan isn’t sure but there are some good points raised re the owners trying to jib the players and the players ending up being voluntary workers. Why don’t we get trade rumours like we get soccer transfer rumours. The Tefldon Don Peter Chiarelli makes an appearance for the first time in a long time and of course he brings us all joy. Is he employed anywhere right now? Lindy Ruff is the new guy in New Jersey and while surprising maybe there could be other factors at work. Dan heard a great rumour about the Molson family and the Penguins and hopefully its true because we all love pettiness. Dan has two hot takes for Will that are always bubbling around his head and he lets them loose. One involves Erik Karlsson and the other involves Martin Brodeur. Wills hot take involves the misery of a young man. All this and the usual buffoonery.

This week Dan and Will celebrate two very important holidays. We talk about the Kings depth getting better and better. Hub cities. Yawn. Why teams taking Byfield at first would be a good idea using NHL20 logic. We then go through each 2nd phase lottery team and find out why they would be a good choice or a bad choice to get 1st overall. FYI I have a rant about the Calgary Flames. Sorry Flames fans. When is Dan going to kill Will? Dan wants one team to win the draft more than any other. Some of these were very obvious good/bad choices and some not so much. One topic that we spent a while on but all the usual faffing about.

This week and Will discuss Novak Djokovic being a doofus and Marcus Rashford being an absolute ledge. Auston Matthews has COVID but should Steve Simmons have reported that? Does he get more press because he is reporting on a Leafs player? Dan Carcilo is the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit against the CHL. What could be the ramifications from it. Artemi Panarin spoke out against the owners and escrow. How that relates to a zoo near Dan and how Joe Schmo has more in common with Millionaire hockey players than we think. What should be the criteria for the Hall of fame. Is there a fuck you Russia section of the hall of fame? Before the draft we did five minutes on a prediction and boy were we wrong. All that and the usual guff.

This week Dan and Will wonder if Muse are good. The Hart conversation is back up and running. Who we would choose? The real department of player safety is back for two more seasons. I explain to Will why he still has importance to teams. We send some love to Diego to Tortoise who legit helped to save a species on his own. Maybe he would get a statue? Will explains why Roman Polak is deciding to snub the NHL to stay at home. Brendan Leipsic is on his way to ...you guessed it, the KHL. Why do they keep taking people with problems? The Buffalo Sabres are in a real tailspin. We don't get why Billionaires don't have any money left after only ten weeks of no income. How close are the Sabres to becoming the new Sens? We should remember the good times though for Jason Botterill. Honestly there was at least one. Pavel Datsyuk is apparently locked up in a monastery with a guy who has some real choice pictures on the wall. It looks like a conspiracy involving chopping wood is also afoot. All of this and the usual guff.

12th June 2020 – This week Dan and Will talk about the Diversity Alliance. What it can hopefully accomplish and who is involved. Will it be able to hold the league to account? The NHL is also starting an inclusion council which sounds to us like it’s a bunch of white people telling players of colour what to do. We hold out hope though as it may have taken the league an age to catch up but at least it is on the way now. The league did however release a video of Tyler Seguin and his amazing social media interactions. I assume that’s what it was for because that’s how it came across. Could a Hart trophy winner be a goalie again? Probably not if your name is Connor Hellebuyck. Why? Because his name isn’t Carey Price or Dominik Hasek. In all seriousness though There hasn’t been a clearer Hart trophy winner in all senses of the award in a long time. His figures are insane. We talk about the confederate flag and why people care about it. Obviously we don’t know. A little tickle into NASCAR and why do people enjoy watching cars on a track? The Ottawa Senators foundation is no longer a part of the Ottawa Senators because of course it isn’t. This leads to speculation about vampires and paying off billion dollar court cases. Tyson Barrie was sick of all the short jokes and loads of other guff.

Thankfully hockey took a back seat this week to more pressing issues. The continued fallout of the George Floyd murder. The continued protests against the police and the racism issues it has. We also discuss the players and team statements that seemed wishy washy from some to well thought out from others. Do we expect too much from players who are shielded from the outside world for so long. We discuss our lives and how we have approached living in a predominantly white area. Kendall Coyne-Schofield draws some ire out from us for her tweets and so called apology tweet. We have a little bit of hockey news. The playoffs will be reseeded and it will be interesting to see what match ups that throws together. Would the owners try to insure a change in the CBA by inserting some kind of pandemic clause. All that and a bit more stuff.

This week Dan and Will open the show with a discussion on the current crisis in America with George Floyd being murdered. We cannot let these things pass us by just because we are a sports podcast. This issue is bigger than that. How many NHLers will speak out. Not many I bet. Two weak ass statements from the Wild and NHL. Quinton Byfields ISS Scouting report is different to everyone elses for some reason. We have a return to play plan laid out in front of us now and its oookkkaaayyy I guess. The Sabres have for reasons unbeknown to anyone decided to retain Jason Botterill. This makes Jack Eichel a sad panda and he is telling people about it. How much of a teams success can be linked to the Coach/GM? The Red Wings are also standing pat for the time being. Will doesn't like the new Golden Knights affiliate. All this and the usual guff.
22nd may 2020 - Please rate review and subscribe. It helps us a lot. This week Dan and Will discuss Robert Pattinsons bizarre interview. Is he Andy Kauffmanning this or is he legit going nuts? Akim Aliu published an important article in The Players Tribune that everyone should read. We discuss the issue of players not getting involved in any positive messages promoting anti-racism movements. The replys to tweets about this. Does a players position matter on how much fans would listen to them? Why is Carey Price allowed in the playoffs when he is is OP. How can anyone score on him? Can we name 10 goalies better than him right now. Tom Gaglardi loves money. The NHL has proposed a return and it seems the best way to do it...I think. How they will fleece fans for money. Early predictions. NBA is smart. NHL is dumb. Who knew. A Quiz. Play along at home fun. Does Will. A well known Cockney wideboy know his rhyming slang. All that and more. Thanks.

Is he a victim of stupidity, dumb hockey rules or being an arsehole? Remember though. To a straight white hockey player using a certain tape is very important. Ryan Rishaug spoke to an infection disease specialist who had some ideas about how the league could come back. They all seemed impossible to us so we proposed some of our own which seemed way more sensible. The victory press had a brilliant article on conditions for players in the NWHL. It was incredibly eye opening and may break the Geneva convention. We then re-up on the Leipsic comments after someone in Canada pointed out something to me that we missed. The context of language is important. A recommendation from Will and the usual guff. Enjoy!

Is there an issue with releasing private conversations if it leads to retribution? The Red Wings are tanking and apparently they should get the first pick because its their turn or that's what Wings fans would have you believe. Why aren't they embracing the tank? Alison Lukan of the Athletic and too many men podcast joins us to talk about her journey into journalism. Should we draft early? Is Torts more famous than any of his players?

John McDonagh is gone from the Blackhawks so of course loads of ex players are in the running as they know how best to run a multi million dollar company. Will has a conspiracy theory about why the Charlotte Checkers have been canned by the Hurricanes. Kurt Overhardt had an interesting idea about an exceptional contract for players. We love the idea of minimum fee release clauses in new contracts and explain what that means. Why are hockey players still so underpaid? Bill Peters has a new job and we handle it with great professionalism while we discuss it. The kid dubbed the Norwegian Gretzky will be under no pressure at all. Is he already doomed? Why both of us are more excited for Quinton Byfield than anyone else in the draft. All that and more.

We chat about the season being done or returning in the light of what Drew Doughty said this week. How the NHL can make money off fans with the news that Florida considers wrestling essential business. Could the NHL just run all their games in Florida? Why the US is run differently to the UK. Would you pay more money if you could guarantee a better TV broadcast? SD and only Pierre between the benches or cough up for a better experience. The Alex Mogilny doc on You Tube is really good. How the Sabres pulled off a defection and got Mogilny political asylum. The ramifications of the whole deal. The A Z draft. RULES: We are drafting players on the first letter of their last name. Once that letter is taken its off limits until all letters have been chosen. E.G. If Will takes Phil Kessel then K is off limits until the next round. No letter X. Certain players are off limits as its too easy. Positions are locked. Enjoy. Thanks.

Florence Schelling is the first female GM of a pro hockey team and we cant decide if it will be worse if she fails or succeeds. The Bobby Ryan documentary is fascinating not only for his story and what happened but the relationship his parents now have. Then onto the draft using players taken in the 2003 NHL draft. It might be the most noteworthy draft ever. Not just GOATS taken in it. Hall of famers. Media darlings and a current head coach. All rolled into one neat draft. Surprising stats from it also.

3rd April 2020 – This week Dan and Will wonder how NHL players are getting on having to take care of their kids. They re-live a classic Dustin Brown quote that is still baffling to this day. The NHLPA players poll is out and boy is it useless. As always. Why can’t podcasts have decent sound quality? The push up challenge is proof that NHLers can’t have original thoughts. We talk about last weeks draft that we did and the interesting point that came out of it after we put it to the public. It appeared that only two players made a difference in the whole thing. This weeks draft is any player drafted between 2010-19. Positions had to be picked for. No taking 6 left sided Dmen. Once a player is taken he is gone and once a year has been chosen from that year is unavailable until the rest of the decade has been picked from. E.g. Will takes a player from 2016. No one else can be taken from that year until all years have been picked from. Another real interesting discussion. Please rate review and subscribe. I’m still working and doing this show. Maybe that will tug on your heart strings a little. J

27th Mar 2020. This week Dan and Will look at the madness of Tiger King on Netflix. Seriously everyone, watch this show. A smooth recap with hockey players killing time. Doc Emerick is struggling without his regular day job. Why we respect players in sports who decide to live and play abroad and why it is risky esp for hockey players. The main event is draft time. We conduct a draft but only with European players. Draft rules apply. Once a player is taken he is off the board and you must draft players in their correct position. You can’t take 8 centres and stick some of them on the wing. We love doing these and this was no different. Some big surprises from both of us which leads this turning into an appreciation of GM’s work at the draft if a curveball gets thrown your way. Awesome player nicknames. We also discussed a few players who didn’t make the cut. Wills nickname from back in the day. I’m still working so throw a 5 star review on for me. Yes I am using my job for sympathy but it’s worth a shot right? :-)

20th Mar 20 – This week Dan and Will answer a fan question. Which NHLer would you like to be stuck with in quarantine for two weeks? Which quiet NHL player would eventually kill us. The NHL GM Mode smooth recap. Richard Branson and the Jacobs family need launching into orbit. The aviation industry can also bugger off. Marble Runs are picking up steam finally. The leagues new schedule proposal is odd to us. An NHL player finally gets the ick and no surprises what team they play for but maybe more of a surprise of who it is and how they got it. Then Will and I try to draft the best team possible from the 2012 draft. Draft rules apply. Once a player is chosen he is unavailable for the next player. As you can imagine this started out fun then turned into an argument. We both make stupid decisions along the way as well. Please rate the show to help us out. Thanks.

13th Mar 2020 - So obviously a weird one this week. We didn't want to do a regular show as we thought it would have been stupid to pretend that the virus outbreak wasn't happening so its a little different this week. There are no segment's and we have more of a free wheeling chat. A cheeky little free skate if you will. We do discuss the virus and the implications for the season including different playoff ideas and why the owners would want something to happen. Also amazingly we find time to argue about Roberto Luongos number being retired in Florida. Why one of us thinks its crazy and why one of us thinks he deserves it. Rudy Gobert is a buffoon. Why Florida might win the cup. Arithmetic and Maths are different? Who knew. Dan tells a story from his past along the lines of his Cliff fall story and his plane shoes story. Man v 8 year old comes to a conclusion. Stay safe folks and wash your hands. Much love.

We pat ourselves on the back a little bit regarding the Preds. We are very surprised at the John Hynes hiring but can we poo poo after what happened to the Blues last year? Torts has been fined again but Dan thinks Torts could turn the tables somewhat. Should the Sens protect Thomas Chabot or play him to death. Evidence suggests one of the is happening. The Habs draft poorly in the first round but as Will points out not all teams draft that well. Even the Habs assistants are jacked. Will enjoyed the winter classic as you would expect.

Winning the cup/Getting relegated. Starters and Scratches including Layla Anderson, car parking and The New Jersey Devils setting what must be a record.

Check out his work @waveintel on twitter and the new player versus model. Then onto the news which started with the Board of governors meeting and Gary Bettman highlighting a four point plan of changes coming into the NHL. We look at those and how easy they will be to implement. 48 hours after Bettman announced there would be repercussions for teams who hid the truth two coaches were fired. Jim Montgomery in Dallas for non-hockey reasons and for reasons we still don’t know about and then Pete DeBoer in San Jose for purely hockey reasons and more than likely goaltending reasons. Nathan MacKinnon makes 200 good hockey men weep as he states he would take less money again. We wonder how much that is and how does he stack up compared to the rest of the league.

Francis is fighting for his job already in Seattle. More stories from Babcocks former players. Jamie LeBlanc is fired. Marc Crawford is under investigation. Then the on-ice news. The Habs are in trouble and the Hulk is getting pressured. Why Bergevin can not be fired for the sake of the human race. Could they make a move for Taylor Hall and what would it cost? Somehow an NHL team was undermanned this week thanks to cap issues. The Blackhawks are going to be in big trouble next year when 2 big contracts kick in. The Leafs could also be in trouble if anyone gets injured. Cale Makar has already been given the Calder but Quinn Hughes is being short changed and we look at the numbers. Makar was a surprise choice at 4 overall in his draft and he wasn't even predicted top ten. Honka and Puljujarvi are not coming back from Europe anytime soon and Mark Borowiecki is a superhero. We get to the bottom of this story and work out who the real thief was. Man v 8 year old is reaching stupid levels and all the usual guff. Please rate and subscribe. Thanksssssssss

Angry men being hilarious and four goal leads. In the 2nd part of our interview with Ken Dyson we talk about being a hockey parent and the Bruins-Habs rivalry. There were only two pieces of news we felt worth discussing this week. The department of player safety is a joke and the 4 game suspension for Bortuzzo is stupid and can cause repercussions. Why the league still needs policeman like Ryan Reaves. Then onto the can of worms that opened after Mike Babcock decided it would be a good idea to make a 19 year old slate his team mates then tell them. This lead onto the Bill Peters situation. We talk about all of it in depth and the massive problem surrounding hockey at every level in regards to hazing, sexual misconduct and abuse of power. This was a heavy one at the end so thanks if you stick through it. Don’t forget to rate review or subscribe.

The Flames are in trouble so they should trade their most skilled player. Zac Rinaldo is the saviour. Why is no one talking about how bad the Preds are? Will makes excuses for a team that has lost 7 of 8 and sat a $6m player. Does Laviolette get more time or has his voice lost its mojo?

Roman Josi has signed a one of a kind contract in Nashville and seems pretty happy about it. DSP goes to China but is there more to it than he just couldn’t find a team.

Then onto the news with the Hurricanes being good. Rod the Bod on how he has that bod and gets the players to play for him. Also how he picks up cars and punches rocks. The secret behind their success isn't anyone we really see. As good as the Canes are the Devil are bad. What has happened so far. How do the numbers look. They have no luck and bad luck. What will Taylor Hall do and where could he go if he decides to leave. The Blues visit the White House and neither of us can link sports to being a Patriot. Would anyone care if they didn't go. We look at the Sens awful attendance figures and compare them to league one footy teams. Spoilers but the Sens are terribly run. man v 8 Year old and loads of other stuff.

Not hockey news which leads to a laughing fit over Chernobyl 2 if it was bull semen. Close but not quite with some Jets and a great guy. Then onto the news. We have to discuss the Matthews situation and the ramifications around that including why we are both very annoyed about the coverage it has received. We are also dumbfounded that he chose to keep it secret from the team and everyone else. For some reason players are trying to murder each other during preseason. Moving on to other stuff we discuss the Byfuglien news coming out of Winnipeg and the Laine news coming out of Winnipeg via Finland. Then onto Mitch Marner re setting the market for all the RFAs with his blockbuster deal. Then onto the other RFAs who didn’t take a hometown discount. JK of course they did. Why did Charlie McAvoy take so little. Are the Jacobs making a cult? Should I be even typing that? Brayden Point is terrifying and isn’t being paid that way. Tkachuks deal is better than Marners right? Thomas Chabot signs to distract from Eugene Melnyk having to pay debts with a casino and a jet company. You can tell hockey is back as the Sens are back.

Extra Man v Man points available. Hockey player slanders NHL in tweet. IIHF worlds, what is in the water in Finland and why they are very German. Evgeny Kuznetsov avoids problems by running away when he saw strange women and powder. The NHLs investigation was never going to do anything. The Senators are back in the news for a good reason. They make a hire and it isn’t Patrick Roy which should sadden you all. The Oilers have also made a new hire and that seems sensible as well. Ken Holland has also made some decisions that are good including Paul Coffey not having a made up job anymore. Leaf land is interesting with lots of things happening. Marner hasn’t signed yet.

Bergeron is still underrated. The refs have got a big problem and fans are not happy. Timo Meier has found a loop hole where you can hand pass a puck in OT and it counts but Gabe Landeskog is offside despite not existing. WHat can the refs and the NHL do to sort it?

The celebration that should follow due to what he accomplished on and off the ice. A who’s who of hockey people involved in Lindsays set up of the NHLPA and the attempts to stop it. The future Tom Wilson award. We look at an amazing game on and off the ice in Long Island where the fans didn’t let us down. Why we can’t blame the islanders fans for the way they reacted. Dans hypocrisy in regards to the cringe worthy Tavares day. I hope you found presents under your Tavares tree like I did. Why Tavares is also blame free for decisions he made.

Then its the Trade deadline 2019 including Columbus go all in with no guarantees. Are they crazy taking on a franchise killer? Do they need a third goalie? What can the Sens do know and why would they release a calendar. They got too much for Ryan Dzingel but not enough for mark Stone. Vegas always wins. The Preds did well. Why did Wayne Simmonds go for cheap? Players wife having baby as he gets traded!! The Bruins trade a scoring sensation away again and trade for someone who was concussed by one of their own players. Doug Wilson keeps Doug Wilsoning. Will is baffled by one of the trades and doesn't understand a Capitals move. Ryan Spooner is passed around like the Christmas gravy jug. The best condition ever for a pick. The Avs win because of the Sens. The Stars get a great deal for about 40 minutes. The Rangers and Devils load up on picks. Other trade bits.

Starters/Scratches (incl Golden Knights connect four, a big chat on Fyre (the Netflix doc) and getting old). We then go into the Auston Matthews contract. Was it a power move by his agent? Is Marner being screwed over by his agent or does he have a valid point? Did Lou try and sabotage the Leafs from the future and how much will Marner get paid. Randy Carlyle is gone in Anaheim and Bob Murray has found the perfect replacement. Oilers fans are so mad they are throwing their jerseys onto the ice again and again and again. How you could make millions outside Rogers Arena. McDavid is getting angrier by the day. Is Gretzky sabotaging McDavid? Why Oilers fans are like Arsenal fans. Carter Hart v Jordan Binnington turns into a discussion about the Blues and their continual selling at the deadline. When do they try and go for it?

Starters/Scratches (incl Army man at Leafs game, Kids design hockey jerseys and hazing). Then we discuss the Pierre and Kendall Coyne situation. Should someone have spoken to Pierre before. A tweet from Schofield that could throw a spanner in the works. Muzzin to the Leafs is good. Rutherford is at it again moving pieces to Florida. Does this mean the Panthers are then making a run on Panarin/Bobrovsky. This is only possible because Panarin is stringing the Blue Jackets along. What would will or I do in Kekalainens shoes? Seabrook and Keith so no to waving a no move. Duck Duck Goose with the Caroline Hurricanes. Will still finds it cringe worthy and panics when Dan tries to explain to the listeners what soggy biscuit is. Elias Lindholm could incite a riot. Jose Mourinho at the KHL. Yes really and its amazing in all ways. Sir Liam Kirk at the future King of Englands coronation. Where does Ovi shoot from? The results might surprise you. Fuck thats savage featuring Taylor Hall.

Starters/Scratches (incl Tomas Rittich, Gary Bettman and seating at restaurants). Then of course we get into the devastating news of the Teflon Don being whacked, Peter Chiarelli. We have a memorial piece for him. We also defend him somewhat. Bob Nicholson and Darryl Katz are clearly all the place. #HireChiarelli Why the Oilers are in such a mess and how can they pull themselves out of it. I still believe there are spin zones at work. The All-star game took place and the women competed but not officially because why would they. Its not like they can beat the men in a hockey competition...oh hang on. The rampant short sightedness in the NHL. The PHWA released their mid season awards which is silly but it leads to a discussion regarding a GMS role in a team and the effects of it. Bellemare v Subban. Ryan Johansen is sneaky clever when he tries to kill mark Scheifle. The Fyre fest doc on Netflix. Antoine Roussell giving grief. man v Coin flip and other guff.

Boborovsky feeling slighted. Is having a shower the worst thing a player can do or is it a spin zone? What would it take for free to get you to stay at a team? Hack dentists. Rick Nash retires. MacKinnon yells at his head coach and then falls of his bench. Jason Spezza has a quote that gets Mr Intangibles (Dan) excited. Snoop Dogg was great on commentary for the Kings. Connor Garland takes a puck to the face like a boss. Women fighting are scary as all hell. The new All Star jerseys are great (The white ones) and awful (the black ones). Will thinks saving the world is lazy mans work. The Senators have had some awful bus stop posters up and why have we only just heard about them. Me and Will then make some of our own.

The winter classic and announcements of the new outdoor series. We invent the Pancake bowl and the Valentines day outdoor game. The Dallas Stars crazyness. An actual fans opinion on the situation and why Jim Lites is stupid. Why having a bunch of horseshit in your team can only lead to good things. The Oilers and the Teflon Don Peter Chiarelli look to regain their most dysfunctional crown from the Senators. We don't know how he has a job. A toilet roll list of things he has done/said. Does he pleasure himself in the showers? Ovechkin is punished for missing the all star game to have time off by getting more time off. John Hynes is extended.
