The Versus [drinking] Game of the week, Pittsburgh at Minnesota
Written by Enforcer

Yes, yes, I know, two straight games of Minnesota Wild drinking games. This is my feature, so you're going to have to deal with it. The Wild are my favorite team, and I actually don't have to work and can watch them on national TV. It's going to be weird, listening to announcers verbally fellate Sidney Crosby instead of talking about how great hockey in Minnesota is. It will be a change of pace. Not necessarily a good change of pace, but definitely different.

This game will feature two of my least favorite alternate sweaters. The Penguins baby blue number is just part of an alarming trend in the 2000s to put baby blue anywhere possible. Why baby blue? Why not green or orange or black? Is it because of North Carolina? With all respect to Dave, screw North Carolina. Oh, and the other alternate is the Wild's red. But Ryan, you say, their regular jersey is red! It didn't used to be though. It was green and awesome before. Their alternate was a flaming red piece of crap. They turned the piece of crap into the main jersey, and now green is the alternate. Hockey uniforms make me angry. Don't even get me started on breezers.

DRINK

...if Greg Zanon blocks a shot. Drink while shouting "Zanon!" to make it even more fun.

... if James Sheppard does anything that makes you think "oh yeah, this guy is a top prospect!" Frankly, you should finish the bottle if that happens. I'm a little bitter

... whenever Kris Letang looks like he knows what's up. Yeah. Kris Letang knows whats up. http://penguins.nhl.com/v2/photos/mugs/8471724.jpg

... while you contemplate which is more intimidating, an adjective or a flightless Antarctic bird.

Drinking player of the week : Clayton Stoner

- Clayton Stoner has heard all the jokes.

- Clayton grew a faux hawk so the douchey factor would counteract the awesome factor of his last name. Now he can live a normal life.

- Stoner has played eight games with two assists, making him far more effective than Martin Skoula ever was.

I just realized, it's been a whole year since I started writing for BMR. I'd just like to thank Kevin for letting me on board. I know that for the first anniversary, the traditional gift is paper, but since I don't have any addresses, I don't have any way to send gifts to people. If I did, the guys would all get Jeremy Roenick cards. In place of that, I'd like to turn the mic keyboard over to the one and only JR:

'Sup, losers? LD, you get a Bud Light on me. The rest of you can suck eggs. Now I got a busy schedule of playing golf and  working on my video blog. Later

This is Scandinavia. Finland and Sweden are two countries in Scandinavia. Lovely chat commentress Sara is from Sweden. So is Matthias Ritola. He is not from Finland, as some people would have you believe. Thank you Sleza, for finding something on the internet that was wrong and doing something about it.

Oh no! It's three Finnish hockey players coming precariously close to the boards and plexiglass that separates us and will certainly impede their progress should they colide with them! I better lean slightly to my left just in case!

The Versus [Drinking] Game of the Week: Minnesota at Chicago
Written by Enforcer   
Tuesday, 05 January 2010 02:30

This is the second Minnesota-Chicago game we have had this season. What, is Minnesota not good enough to garner attention unless Chicago is involved? Vice versa? Why don't they put the obviously superior Canadian teams on Versus? Especially if they want to show the Northwest conference. But I digress. I am glad the Wild are one of Versus' favorite teams. If they can get on TV more, perhaps that will mean free agents want to come to Minnesota, knowing they will get the same TV time. Those narcissistic free agents. Since last we saw the Wild, they have really turned it around, thanks to newcomers stepping up, not the least of whom is noted lothario Guillaume Latendresse.Of course, with the Wild playing Brent Seabrook and organized crime's favorite team, the Blackhawks, this is your classic "Good vs Evil" game. So that's exciting. So anyways, I say we drink.

DRINK

... Every time the word "concussion" is said as it relates to a Minnesota player. By the time you are done, you will have the spins worse than Pierre-Marc Bouchard.

... For every wrong answer you get in this quiz in the Blackhawk and Wild categories. Jocelyn Thibault is not an answer.

... If Andrew Brunette scores a goal with his head. Five drinks if he is called a wimp for not using his face.

... For every goal Minnesota scores, multiplied by the points Minnesota is ahead of your team in the standings [only applicable if your name is Schultz or Loser Domi]

Dinking player of the week: Duncan Keith

http://lasvegaschaos.com/images/Keith.jpg

- Duncan decided to go to Michigan State, despite being from Manitoba. He claims it was for an education, I'm sure, but you can't fool me. You went to Michigan State!

- The 'Hawks claim he is the assistant captain. Everyone knows that Seabrook is the boss. When the cops come, Keith will be the first to go down, and Seabrook will get away problem free. Again.

- Duncan recognizes that the has station's buy two sodas for 2 dollars deal is a good bargain, but he will decline the offer. He would rather steal them.

Chat Tonight, 10:30 PM EST: Shedding Our East Coast Bias
Written by Schultz   
Monday, 04 January 2010 14:28

Tonight, boys and girls, we're going to be taking a bit of a different route with our semi-weekly chat. We'll be starting at 10:30 PM EST (come a bit earlier for the cocktail hour, if you like) and are going to be watching/discussing the Kings and Sharks game. And who says we're not down with OPP the west coast? Snoop will be there and maybe Tupac if we can master human resurrection by then.

Anywho, come in and join the fun. Topics will include but are not limited to:

- Bananas (pictured)

- Swedish Chicks (also pictured)

- Ric Flair

- Swedish Chicks

- Kings/Sharks

- Anze Kopitar

- Star Wars

- Swedish Chicks

By the way... DO NOT search "banana girl" on Google image search with the safe search off. I'm sure that warning won't stop you, but you can't say I didn't try.

 
The New Blues Coach is, Like, So Drunk Right Now
Written by Schultz

In Unfortunate Headlines News, NHL.com gives us a gem about the Blues' new coach Davis Payne. "Payne Gets Blizted in Debut"

payne

So, for those of you not "down with the kids" that basically means that Payne got drunk and stoned at the same time. The Blues were certainly looking to get a younger influence behind the bench when they replaced 58-year old Andy Murray with the 39-year old Payne but I'm not sure college frat parties on the bench for their young players is quite what John Davidson had in mind. Anyway, the always entertaining Urban Dictionary provides us with a vivid definition and example of what took place last night:

blitzed

I didn't see the game, but I imagine it must have been awesome if you were sitting behind the Blues bench.

 
Happy New Year's from Barry Melrose Rocks!

Her at BMR, we're always willing to improve ourselves. Here are some New Year's resolutions that we want to work on:

Loser Domi: Usually I don't like making resolutions, since I can never keep them and I'm let down.But this year, I think I have one I can keep: I  resolve to not get knocked up/infected with an STI

Kevin: "I need to figure out a plan to dedicate more time to blogging. It's been tough since I started work. So that's one thing. I also haven't played hockey in years and want to get back into it, which means getting back into shape and the typical resolution that will inevitably be broken.As for the NHL... The Islanders better make one to get that arena deal done. I'm going to lose my mind if they don't!"

We also like looking for an excuse to speculate about the lives of NHL personalities. After the jump, join us for what we (Kevin and I) think some personalities of the NHL might want to improve in 2010.

 

 
Mrs. Tavares Goes to Work.

Habs Hat + Tavares shirt
Let me explain: this picture is the result of a bet I had at the store. Thanks to stupid Kostitsyn scoring in overtime, the Leafs lost and the Habs won, which means that I have to wear the Jose Theodore toque for a week.
I figured I make the best of a bad situation and create a second Mrs. Tavares adventure, "Mrs. Tavares Goes to Work", after the jump.
