I’m sick and I’ve got nothing today, so I thought I’d use this space for good instead of evil for now.
I love hockey, and I love people doing good for others, and I always like to spread the word about worthy causes, especially this time of year, when people are more inclined to give. So [...]

a hockey story
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged boston bruins, hockey, new york islanders on December 10, 2008 | 4 Comments »
I got a bunch of new hockey fan followers on twitter yesterday (hi, hockey fans!), so I thought I’d try to entertain them with a story.
Back in the early 80’s, I took two kinds of road trips. One was the random, spur of the moment kind that ended up with me being 200 miles from [...]

Day 97 of 365: a year in songs and photosSong: Hanson Brothers, The Hockey Song
No, not those Hansons. This band – an alternate persona to the amazing NoMeansNo – is a fun punk band that sings songs about hockey. They’re Canadian, eh.
Tonight, my New York Islanders play Todd’s Anaheim Ducks. We’re going to the game. [...]
hockey pics
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged hockey, new york islanders, photography on December 30, 2007 | 3 Comments »
So out of 714 photos I took last night, I put 50 up on flickr, just because I ran out of patience. I was ultimately happy with about 600 of those photos. But who wants to see 600 pictures of one game?
The set is here, if you are interested in seeing them in full [...]

raise your cup and let’s propose a toast

Al Arbour will be coaching the Islanders for tonight’s game against the Penguins. It’s a publicity stunt aimed at getting Arbour his 1500th game coached. Publicity stunt or not, of course I will be watching. I’d go to the game, but I don’t want to have to sell a kidney to be able to [...]
Discoveries

Discovery 1: Sticking to just the 300 songs thing is boring for both you and I, so regular blogging will resume alongside the songs thing.
Discovery 2: Most of you like the multiple song entries as opposed to the single song entries, so I’ll go back to that – and most likely do that once a [...]
the 2007/08 NHL season: nowhere to look but up
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged hockey, new york islanders, nhl on August 22, 2007 | 7 Comments »
In other news, the predictions for the 2007-08 NHL season came out and all I can say is, it’s going to be a long, long year in this house. Maybe I could handle the fact that my team is predicted to finish last in their division, if it weren’t for the two people in [...]

Free agent season in the NHL started this weekend and the Islanders were like a kid losing at Monopoly, just tossing all their properties out on the table and watching them disappear.
Jason Blake. Tom Poti. Ryan Smyth.
I knew they were going to lose Smyth going in, but geez. This is a team that is falling [...]
