Step One to Southeast Deconstruction?

10 December, 2009

Here is a tweet that can be filed in the “grain of salt” category. It can also be filed in the “food for thought” category as well. Perhaps it represents the first step toward fixing the decade-long, ever-underwhelming travesty that is the Southeast Division. Though we follow @nhlsecrets, a tap of the stick on the [...]

Another Frightful Third Period, Another Great Escape

23 October, 2009

It was a victory that was “a lot more difficult than it had to be,” Comcast’s Joe Beninati noted at the close of Thursday night’s broadcast. Ain’t that the truth. The cardiac Caps, they ought to be called. And that’s not flattery. You could say this was a night for secondary scoring, or tertiary scoring, [...]

Hockey Sweater Obsessives, Your Ship Has Arrived

10 October, 2008

Paul Lukas of Uni Watch fame has published his NHL preview, chock full of hockey uniform photos from new sweaters, to memorial patches, to the sneaky “C” that Roberto Luongo added to his mask since by NHL rules no goaltender may wear the captaincy “C” on his jersey.

From the Mouths of Babes

3 September, 2008

Certain members of OFB are thrilled that the Capitals are starting auditions for the Spirit Squad today. My only hope is that the Spirit Squad has a blog, similar to the Nashville Predators Dancers and Goal Girls, or the Blue Crew’s audition blog. Where else could we gain insight into the challenging world of fan [...]
