Introducing Free Loot Friday
Introducing Free Loot Friday

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 22 hours ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

Over some summertime puck sodas, we thought we would lift a page from a very popular (non-sports) blog. Now we don’t have a Wii Fit to give away, but we do have some cool stuff in the OFB Store. Periodically — perhaps the final Friday of every month — we are going to give away some of our booty to an OFB reader. Think of it as a thank you for helping make OFB the fun forum that it is today.

Rockin’ the NHL Awards Red Carpet Red: “It’s always Ovie time”

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 26 hours ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

Here’s a great video from HockeyBarn.com — one in which stellar cameos feature Comcast’s Lisa Hillary, owner Ted Leonsis, Head Coach Bruce Boudreau, Calder candidate Nicklas Backstrom, some Ovechkin fella, and Caps’ media maestro Nate Ewell doing real good by a monkey suit. Enjoy.

How Anna Kournikova Ruled a Nation’s Lusting Hearts (and Modems)
How Anna Kournikova Ruled a Nation’s Lusting Hearts (and Modems)

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 3 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

For our younger readers — and those who’ve been hit in the head with a puck once too often to remember — let’s take a fond, retrospective, lingering look at Anna Kournikova as she visits our fair city with the St. Louis Aces to face the Washington Kastles. I suspect very few male readers will mind this brief diversion from the melting asphalt of our nation’s capital today . . . and of course ...

Lust, 15 . . . no 30, no 40: A Hockey Blogger Warms to the Tennis Beat

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 3 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

You might ask, what business is it of a hockey blog to cover a team tennis match? I might reply, forgive me for wanting to chronicle . . . a legend! Legends are forged both by championship mettle and star-crossed curses. Greg Norman is a legend more for his losing than his winning. And so it is with our sensational starlet from SovetskyLand. So there. It is an interesting time — some ...

Toronto Adds Hunter, Zettler as Assistant Coaches
Toronto Adds Hunter, Zettler as Assistant Coaches

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 2 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

No, not Dale Hunter . . . Tim Hunter and Rob Zettler have been sucked into The Great Toronto Void, a.k.a. Leafs Nation, as assistant coaches. Zettler patrolled the Washington blue line from 1999-2002 (with a couple stints in Portland). Hunter was the Capitals’ assistant coach for 5 years, including the team’s run to the Stanley Cup in 1998.

Knowing our of association with Russia’s largest sports daily, SovetskySport, the Most Valuable Network approached us this week and asked if we’d accept an assignment few who know outdoor sporting events in July in D.C. would even consider: sitting beneath a searing sun, skin clammy with Mid-Atlantic humidity, and blogging . . . on tennis, as played by Russia’s Anna Kournikova.

NFL Preseason: Stupid Is as Stupid Does
NFL Preseason: Stupid Is as Stupid Does

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 5 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

I confess I’ve never understood the length, breadth, and brutality of the NFL preseason. With athletes in all sports — including intercollegiate ones — now training year-round, the practice by pro football of spending a month-and-a-half-plus in helmets and pads, beating each other’s brains out, out in summer’s worst heat, strikes me as nothing short of insane.

Hi folks! Winding down a fantastic two weeks in Alaska with my wife and we’re having a blast. Not much hockey up here in the summer months of course, but I’m still Rocking the Red 3,000+ miles from home.

The Hockey Blockbuster, Coming Soon to a Rink Near You
The Hockey Blockbuster, Coming Soon to a Rink Near You

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 5 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

This is an extraordinary American summer weekend, insomuch as it delivers something rarer than an NHL goalie scoring a goal: the arrival in theaters of a great and compelling and culture-consuming domestic movie. I’m speaking of course of the new Batman movie, ‘The Dark Knight.’ It isn’t merely exceptionally well reviewed by critics, who are discussing it in terms of Oscars and “classic.”

On Travel Travails with TSA

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 5 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

The Forechecker today has a fascinating breakdown of miles traveled by NHL clubs in 2008-09. The San Jose Sharks will migrate more than 56,000 miles, he tabulates, while only the New York Islanders will travel less than the Caps (28,321 miles). Of course, if the league wised up and reconstituted the Patrick division, there’d be even less travel for the team.

Hurricane Huet
Hurricane Huet

OnFrozenBlog OnFrozenBlog posted 9 days ago from www.onfrozenblog.com

With the news that the Caps will be playing the Blackhawks in the season home opener, it figures that the next potential hurricane could be churning it up in the Atlantic soon. And the name of that storm? Just think of a recently departed goalie whose time in Washington was a brief tumultuous whirlwind, not unlike a hurricane. Oh, if only he went to Carolina, the irony would be complete.

Tim Leone, blogging for the Patriot News, captured as he always does the flavor of the moment in Harrisburg, Pa., yesterday, where Caps’ head coach Bruce Boudreau was honored alongside Bears’ GM Doug Yingst. The Dauphin County Commissioners declared Wednesday Bruce Boudreau Day in the county. Bears’ GM Yingst was also honored for his years of service to his community.

I’m in Hershey amid some Bears’ hard-rockers for the Rush concert in Hershey Stadium tonight. I’ve had good sport with DC Sports Chick the past 24 hours, whose Canuck husband wanted to name their first child Geddy (irrespective of gender) but who herself would prefer a life free of any more Spirit of the Radio.
