From Ours To Yours.

WOW !! Pimp My Ride – The Dallas Stars Way

Talk about a heck of a 21st birthday gift from teammates. Priceless !!! Dallas Stars do a Pimp My Ride makeover to rookie D-man Matt Niskanen as a birthday gift. Only downside is he may have to rebuy his own vehicle as there are talks about putting it up for auction. LOL

A lil late, but……

  

Well I just wanted to give a big shout out to Sergei Zubov. After my post last week on Zubie not getting any attention around the league, a weird chain of events happened, lol. Much to my surprise, myself and a few of the guys from Icks Corner went to the Dallas Stars game versus the LA Kings. The thing that made me laugh was it was Zubov night, where he was was presented with a little cermony before the game for reaching 600 assist. I felt kinda special since I acknowledged this D man before hand. The kicker to end off the week was when the NHL named him the 2nd star out of 3 stars around the league for the week. Zubov capped off a great week with 1 goal and 7 assist in gaining this honor. Way to go ZUBIE !!!!!

Was there ever any DOUBT !!!

The League has turned down Roy “Horse Collar” Williams for his appeal against his one game suspension against his tackle on McNabb. Honestly did anyone think this was going to be overturned. Geez Roy this rule was put in place just for you. Hopefully this makes you pull your head out of your butt and you get back to the Roy of old. Every since Kelly Rowland left you, you sir have been a total waste of talent on the field. You cant cover, your not hitting, and you are just getting burnt.

“Who Me?? What did I do??”

Still too Funny

After Romo’s performance last week against the Eagles. I could’nt help but get reminded of this promo spot. hmmm? Still all in all this was a hilarious spot. 

Goons Beware !!!!!

New York Islanders forward Chris Simon has been suspended for 30 games, without pay. Why you ask, well for purposely kicking Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jarkko Ruutu on December 15, 2007. Simon will be able to return to NHL play in two months (February 21, 2008 vs. Tampa Bay). The league has said several factors were considered in imposing the longest suspension in NHL history for an on-ice incident. It was fortunate there was no serious injury to Ruutu as a result of Simon’s action, the intentional act of kicking an opponent with an exposed skate blade, especially where the opponent is in a open position, is and always has been a totally unacceptable in the game of hockey. While the act itself was extremely dangerous, the fact that this is the eighth incident requiring discipline on Simon compelled me to impose a very serious question. How big of an idiot do you have to be? When a player repeatedly shows the lack of ability to control his actions and conducts himself in total disregard of the rules, as well the health and safety of other players on the ice, each incident is brought forth and put under enhanced scrutiny and will get you a more severe punishment. DUH !!!!!  Based on his average annual pay, and the fact that he is considered a repeat offender, Simon looks to lose around if not more a figure estimated to be at least $292,683.00 of his pay. The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund. Goons have been long gone from the new NHL so Simon I know you are eligible to come back, but do us all a favor and DON’T!!! I am sure there is a minor club who would love to have you. You sir get the DEE DEE DEE award of the year.
