An Item on my Bucket List

An Item on my Bucket List

It is a morbid thing to be thinking about what you want to do before you die.  The very idea of death is frightening; as I get older, I find myself more and more distracted at the idea of leaving this earth, either pre-maturely, or at my destined moment.  Is it healthy?  Am I screwed [...]

Huntzy’s Second Round Playoff Picks (a few days late)

Huntzy’s Second Round Playoff Picks (a few days late)

Started this a few days late, thanks to a weekend of vodka-crans and kegstands.  SORRY FOR BEING YOUNG. Each and every series has played at least one game, so I’ve had a bit of a preview in terms of which teams to pick.  Remember folks: if you’re not cheating, you’re not trying. Now before we [...]

Huntzy’s Running Diary of Sunday’s Penguins-Flyers Tilt

Huntzy’s Running Diary of Sunday’s Penguins-Flyers Tilt

On a typical Sunday, I’ll plop down on the couch and watch NFL football for about ten hours, then maybe a new episode of whatever series is currently on HBO, or maybe catch the late airing of the latest Mad Men episode. Life is good. But it’s the football off-season, and the hockey post-season.  And [...]

Simmer Down Shanny: 25 game suspension for Torres is the epitome of ridiculous

Simmer Down Shanny: 25 game suspension for Torres is the epitome of ridiculous

Do you ever read something, and have to re-read it several times before you can comprehend it?  You just stand there holding your phone or newspaper, or sit there looking at your computer screen, and try to actually think about what you just read?  That’s what I did this morning, when the Twitterverse blew up [...]

Huntzy’s First Round Playoff Picks

With my beloved Maple Leafs missing the playoffs for the zillionth straight year, I’ll be watching the entirety of the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs from a purely hockey fan perspective.  And that sucks.  So, I decided to do an NCAA Basketball-style bracket with a few of my buddies, and made official predictions for the post-season.  [...]

Sidney Crosby will be a game-time decision for the rest of his career

Sidney Crosby will be a game-time decision for the rest of his career

Tonight marks the second triumphant return of the game’s best player: Sidney Crosby.  After a concussion suffered at last year’s 2011 NHL Winter Classic, Crosby spent the majority of a calendar year in the press box, watching his teammates try to win without him, no doubt frustrated by the fact that all he could do [...]

HBO: 24/7 Flyers/Rangers — Episode 1 Recap

“If you kill tiger and they find you…you’re dead…that’s it.” That line from Ilya Bryzgalov pretty much sums up the premiere of this years edition of “HBO 24/7: Road to the Winter Classic”, documenting the New York Rangers and the Philadelphia Flyers.  If you happened to miss it for some God-forsaken-reason, then watch it.  If [...]

Gongshow Exclusive 1 on 1 Interview with Rob Schremp (Original)

Crow: You won rookie of the year for Mississauga in 2003, then got traded to London the following season. What was that first taste of Canadian hockey like? Schrempy: It was an eye opener. Junior hockey is so huge in Canada and to play in front of 9000 people was such an adrenaline rush. My [...]

“HBO 24/7: Road to the Winter Classic” is one of the Best Shows On Television

There’s nothing quite like it. If you’re a hockey fan, you know what I’m talking about.  HBO’s 24/7 Penguins/Capitals: Road to the Winter Classic was an instant hit, and gave those who follow the game of puck, as well as those who aren’t fans, the chance to see how hockey players live the lifestyle on and [...]
