# 1 Star of the week!

Still not sure if this is the dumbest or coolest nickname in the NHL?  Regardless, Brad Marchand is a bad ass!

What Tim Thomas said?

Commentary from the Vezina, Conn Smythe, and Stanley Cup winner?

Random picture with an NHL player?

The Pod, The Professor, Vezina Winner Tim Thomas and The Chowdah Storm discuss the correlation between great hockey and facial hair!

New Steamer skating drills

I think we can all agree that skating is way over-rated in hockey, but check this out anyway......

New Steamer off-season fitness requirements

Dates.....

Last Sunday Cam Neely turned 45.  "Sea Bass" could kick Clint Eastwood's ass - and I think we all know what that means for a sissy like you!  

A great penalty?

There is such thing as a good penalty.  And I suppose on rare occasion the coach might actually thank you.  Well if that does occur, it definitely did after this penalty by Matt Hunwick of the Bruins.  The NHL record-setting video is below.

The Winter Classic

A fantastic couple of weeks of hockey included the NHL's new showcase, The Winter Classic.  A great game as the Bruins won 2-1 in OT.  It also looked like a great event - and BU and BC are going to play at Fenway Park tomorrow / tonight. 

They also held a Bruins alumni / legends skate.  Regardless of where your hockey loyalties lie, you have to admit that four of the biggest bad asses in hockey history can be seen in this picture from the skate: # 8 Cam Neely, # 4 Bobby Orr, # 24 Terry O'Reilly, and # 77 Ray Bourque.  Well I love that dirty water.......
