So the Mooseheads lost 4-1 (empty netter) to the dirty, flea infested Screagles... but who cares. Today I saw Jessyko Bernard modeling a striking pair of lederhosen.
Du bist mein Mann? Ja?
Ohhh Ja!

Funk
Nobody likes a fun killer...so thanks a lot stinky Sea Dogs for a 6-2 ass whoopin' on Wednesday night. A whoopin that happened almost entirely within a 3 minute span of the third period. The Sea Dogs are almost as much of a downer as me and I have been spending years perfecting my "misery" skillz.
Wha? Nah!
I am feeling better, crawling out of my neurosis induced rut. I think that a shootout win by team Canada and getting to look at Martin Brodeur, his sexy Santa belly and his scruffy old chest protector helped a bit.
...but this is a Mooseheads blog not a Team Canada blog and it is most definitely not my "dear, Diary" so I should just get over my emotional outbursts and stick to hockey.
The Moose played a scrappy game against the Sea Dogs and the Sea Dogs scrapped back. As Lady GaGa would say "It's not how big, it's how mean" which could, if you would like, help to explain the usefullness of Garrett Clarke. I would be a fool if I ignored his diva-like behavior since it sometimes makes the game funner to watch. I mean, it's not fun to watch your team lose in the last minutes of the game while Clarke sits in the penalty box diddling with himself. No, that's not fun at all. What is fun is when he destroys boys with big hits and frustrates the shit out of the opposing team and makes all hell break loose on the ice.
I ascribe to a similar philosophy but I actually prefer big AND mean (take that as you will)...
... so when Clarke throws Sauve off his game and makes him behave all like the Cunty princess of Cuntland on blades, well, then I get really excited. I don't yell and scream like some Mooseter club loonies (oh, they know who they are), instead I just sit and calmly watch it all unfold like a graceful display of dickishness and anarchy. It is beautiful. Well, not Clarke's acting. That is more in line with the work of Heidi Montag than, say, Cate Blanchett. Kid deserves a Razzie for his dives.
I mean, really? What did you expect would happen when the "best" team in the country finally decided to "show up"?
The positive part was the Mooseheads penalty kill, which was a travesty that first night in Rimouski, was back on form. The Dogs were only able to score on 1/8 power play opportunities.
The Moose also DOMINATED faceoffs - winning 41 of 58. So if you are looking at the Sea Dog's Zach Phillips and thinking "oh wow": 1 goal, 2 assists and 1st star honors - just remember he was 1/9 on the faceoffs. He ain't so hot!
On a similar vein, when I had looked at Tomas Knotek's faceoff stats while in Rimouski I almost cried. I was ready to fly to the Czech republic, kidnap his girlfriend and have her forcibly confined back in Canada. We could smuggle her from game to game in a hockey bag in the guts of the bus. Tomas' rommie could sleep in the hall while he got his 'thang' on. Tomas plays much, MUCH better when there is a girl around that he feels the need to impress*.
No diss on Tomas though. He played an OK game. He wasn't as dominant as he can be, but he did have a goal. He is now 3 points from that elusive PPG status (48 points in 51 games). Bety had the other goal and was the recipient of starz. Cookies go to Linden Bahm though because we had a "moment" in the first period where he was being all feisty... which ended with him blocking a shot and getting hurt and then beings slightly less feisty...but still. Don't deny us our moment!
As for Corbeil. Wow. You know during the breakaways and all that he was a total beast. In fact he was a beast for about 57 minutes. Unfortunately, it is all fun and games until someone loses an eye ...or allows 3 goals in a brief 3 minute span. No hate. Just love. Love and chocolate! I am a very forgiving girl. I wonder if Mathieu can do 1-legged squats? hmmmmmmmm. If he demonstrated a one-leg squat for me I would make sure he got his chocolate. Actually, Delmas also gets chocolate. I mean he answered Ovie over Crosby. That is the correct answer! No one-legged squats required.
Special note to Alex LeMeowMeowMeowMeow.
Maybe fighting isn't your thing. There is really no harm in being a "lover, not a fighter". Of course, there is no harm in being a lover AND a fighter either, but that is more of an off-ice activity.

uuuuuuuggggggg
So that is my Christmas gift is it? The Mooseheads lost 7-1 to the Saint John Sea Dogs.
An intermission interview with Garrett Clarke taught me that I should cut Clarke some slack. He likes the Flyers. That explains everything. If I had snagged a Clarke poster I would be licking it right now.
I enjoy the Flyers. I enjoy them a lot. I almost forgot how much I enjoy assholes, like Clarke and the Flyers, because all the goals other teams have been scoring on the power play while Clarke sits in the penalty box trying to find Gabriel O'Connor's hidden stash of porno mags kinda blinded me with rage.
Dude, the pornos are just a myth. No need to be in that box. Let's hang, have a beer and talk about how we would let Philly put their P in our V. I would take a ride on Carcillo's moustache. Would you? So it's agreed! We should both wear more orange to demonstrate our love for Philly. We should start a club.
As for Boston over Montreal? - fuckin' eh! I agree! Why have I been wetting my panties for all those Toronto loving chumps and Sidney Crosby fans. I mean honestly - who the fuck chooses Crosby over Ovie? Half-wits, that's who!
Here, let me just kick my real bf (a Toronto fan), my imaginary bf (not a Moosehead player but also a Toronto fan), Jessyko and Sawyer out of my bed and make you a little nest out of frilly unmentionables and soft girlie bits. Oh hey baby. That interview was the best part of the night.
Wait! How do you feel about David Clarkson of the NJ Devils?
Please don't think that this is an endorsement of you being "too cool for school". I actually prefer dorks with a secret evil streak...and a big...
Everything that happened AFTER the first period and after Clarke's interview is totally not worth talking about. The second period was a disaster. The third period was just counting down the time until the end of the game.
I am just happy that Grondin was able to come into the game in relief of Corbeil and play well. It has been a while since he has played and I have not been nervous. He must have learned to "look forwards, not backwards, upwards, not forwards". The Hannay/Thomas fight was also pretty impressive... in that Hannay was not destroyed.

A Pre-Christmas miracle
Well, the first miracle was Cam making Garrett Clarke a healthy scratch. So now guys have to sit out for playing irresponsibly and taking a bazillion unnecessary penalties? Since when? Scratch that theory. Clarke was out with a groin injury.
The second miracle - the Halifax Mooseheads (8-25-1-2) defeated the Saint John Sea Dogs (30-6-1-0) in their barn by a score of 4-2. Jessyko Bernard had the game winning goal and Mathieu Corbeil made 33 saves for the win. My 3 boyfriends were rocking tonight. Even my defenceman boyfriend Sawyer Hannay had an assist and a team best +2 for the game.What would it be called if I had 3 boys in my bed at once (for snuggling)? Foursome is just too boring. Let's call it a tetra pack! One person for every goal. Cookies in bed?
Halifax was 2-4 on the powerplay and had 4 goals on 24 shots. Amyot, Bety and Gelinas had the other goals for the Mooseheads.
Other amazing things:

Also, Konrad Abeltshauser is doing awesome in France with the German junior team and is a +8 in 3 games. Go, K Go.
Other crazy news - Twenty year old goaltender Nicola Riopel (Moncton Wildcats) will be returning to the Q after playing a half season with the Adirondack Phantoms of the AHL.

Other amazing things:
- Grant had 2 assists and is now on an 8 game point streak, currently tied with Danick Paquette (Remparts) for the longest current streak in the league.
- Travis Randell won 13 of 20 faceoffs and is now some sort of faceoff ninja
- Gillard is injured. I would ask if he wants me to kiss him better where it hurts, but he is a Newfie and thus I know he would suggest something naughty. Damn Newfies and their boy bits...always causing trouble.
- New behbeh defencemen Trey Lewis and Jamie Bishop were playing and Bishop had a point and was awarded with the 3rd star of the game.
- Desjardins, Gelinas, Dimitruk and Lemieux also had assists.
- Carl Gelinas is the Mooseheads' winner of the RDS mid-season rookie excellence award.

mass distributers
So busy.
...and in my off time - so lazy.
As a result there will be mass distribution of cookies: Gerrad Grant for his goal on Friday vs. the Wildcats, Jordan Costello for his first ever goal as a Moosehead in the game against PEI on Saturday, and Spencer Metcalfe for his rocking fight in tonight's the game against the Moncton Wildcats.
A few things to note:
The Moose lost 6-5 against PEI but it was a snappy affair with the Moose earning a single point as this was an overtime loss. The reffing sucked, but it likely sucked in both team's favours. So many soft calls. However, that unsportsman like penalty against Desjardins was total bullshit. You can't even site "the Avery rule" as precedent on that one. I am a major proponent and possible creator of the "goalies above all others" movement, but even I think that was a BS call. I am not a big fan of the penalty in OT that cost us the game either.
Tonight the Moose were slaughtered by the Moncton Wildcats. Final score 6-1. Tomas Knotek had the lone Moosehads goal (assisted by Grant and Gillard). This is Tomas's last game with the team as he heads out tomorrow to join his Czech teammates for the World Junior Championship tryout camp. We will see how hot Randell and Grant are without him. Who will join them on the top line? Oh the suspense!
So we lost, again. Corbeil had another (seemingly) bad game. 6 goals on 29 shots can never really be considered good. What to say? All I can think of are the immortal words of Kodos
Gerrad Grant is on a 7 game point streak. Oh, the things he can do with those hands! (which is probably why you should be careful about shaking them).
The team now have a facebook page. It is filled with amazing things like action shots, team photos (OK, admittedly those are often less than amazing. In fact they are often sub-par) and GOAL VIDEOS.
oh ...and there is this :^:::::::::::::::::::::::::
NO! REALLY!! CLICK THIS LINK!!!
Gabe's jersey is up for auction starting tomorrow. You only have until this Friday to bid. If someone got it for me I would finally concede and accept a Christmas gift even though I am a major Scrooge and I do not celebrate Christmas as I despise all things Christmas (except the food, eggnog, and drunken merriment).
Have you ever wonder what happened to Steve Lund? Did you ever watch a game and think - that boy sure is a drama queen? Wonder no more. Steve is currently attending Vancouver Film School. See, there is life after hockey (and concussions).
...and in my off time - so lazy.

See you next ... (oh ) Tomorrow
The Mooseheads lost to the Moncton Wildcats by a score of 3-2 in the last two minutes of play. The Wildcats scored the winning goal while shorthanded. Insert curse words here.
Dear Garrett Clarke,
Stop being a ...Danick Paquette ...a Chris Pronger... What is the word I am looking for?
Oh yeah...total ASSHOLE
So the rest of the fans are blind, and apparently the coach is blind because he did not bench you after your string of totally CUN...T-Y incidents, but I am not blind. You are totally being a douche. A couple of unnecessary slashes, an over-dramatized fall (and it wasn't even a trip), running to the bench to hide after a penalty, pretending you are totally innocent, throwing a fit in the penalty box.
...and to think that penalty led to a MONCTON GOAL.
It is not endearing. I love my team and it is totally CUN...T-Y of ME to be such an asshole when talking to teenager... but really - from one bitch to another - STOP IT!
xxoo,

Spankings, Accomplished!
So yes, the Halifax Mooseheads handily defeated the Lewiston Maineiacs by a score of 7-3. The rumours are all true. The Mooseheads are now within 5 points of a playoff spot.
In case my busy work schedule never gives me a chance to blog again - cookies go to Alex Lemieux for feeling the need to follow the puck into the net...on his bum. Managing to get a whole human boy past the goaltender has to count for something. I would prefer if it counted for two goals. That now makes it an 8-3 Mooseheads win - hopefully the QMJHL website updates its stats accordingly. Not only that but both Lemieux and Gelinas each have three goals in their past three games. It was a big weekend boys- congrats.
Actually it was a big weekend overall since the team managed 15 goals (+1 human goal) in three games. That is a lot of boys getting a lot of goals.
As for Corbeil and I, every game our love grows. It is just like that "with every step, love grows" pendant from Charm diamond Centre (or Zales). If he is not careful I will buy him one. Mathieu Corbeil has been ensconced in ahmazing. Oh, I know it looks like a blue snuggie (to match the pendant), but that is what ahmazingness looks like. Corbs now has a 3.25 GAA and 0.897 save % in 25 games. I know those numbers don't seem awesome, but it is all relative - considering the team and considering the start they had to the season.
While the team is now awesome, I can't say the same for some of the people who sit around me. Even when the team was winning 7-1 (sadly, not the final score) they could still find something to complain about. When someone is carrying the puck they should be shooting it or passing it. When someone is passing it they should be carrying it or shooting it. Carrying it is considered too fancy but passing it is considered too risky. All activities should lead to immediate shooting, irrespective of whether there is an opening in the net or a guy there to get the rebound. If you are reading this and thinking that it sounds bizarre - you are right. Now ask yourself: "Am I highly irrational while watching hockey games"? If so, the solution is to keep your mouth shut. You are just annoying those who sit around you.
...and then there was the guy sitting in front of me complaining about Yetman. I was wondering if I could trephinate him with my high heeled shoe. Don't EVER fuck with my goalies.
I hate being surrounded by so much negativity.

Abducted
That game against Victoriaville last weekend never happened. I never wrote about it and thus it never happened. No cookies for anyone because it never happened.
Bullshit! I am nothing if not totally on the ball!
Last night the Mooseheads took on the Quebec Remparts at the Halifax Metro Centre and were defeated by a score of 4-2. The Moose had the Remparts on a tight leash until the third period when Stefanovich and Paquette were able to put two pucks past Corbeil to bring the score to 4-1. Jessyko Bernard scored for the Moose with less than 5 minutes left in the game but the Moose were unable to rally back to for a win...or less of a loss.
Points of order:
News links:
Wuest: Lineup: Remparts at Mooseheads
Wuest: Moose can't keep high-powered Remparts down
Palov: Mooseheads put up fight
Is this enough? I have work to do and I haven't even had time to exercise in a week. Stupid work.
Bullshit! I am nothing if not totally on the ball!

Jessyko Bernard scored for the Moose with less than 5 minutes left in the game but the Moose were unable to rally back to for a win...or less of a loss.
Points of order:
- 0/5 on the power play.WTF? It felt like the Moose were on a PP all night. Booo on the MF powerplay. The Remparts got one PP opportunity and they were able to take full advantage of it.
- Brunet was wearing 3. That #3 jersey is the biggest slut. It has been making its rounds through the team. It doesn't even have a nameplate...so no one knows its name. I see lots of (what look to be) little wanna-be hos at the Mooseheads game, but the # 3 jersey takes the cake. Look out Hannay, it appears to be targeting defencemen.
- I sat there and watched boys dawdle with the puck before shooting it on net. There was a failure with the quick release. Now, normally girls don't like quick release, but there are always exceptions, of which hockey is one. Jessyko displayed quick release skills on his onetimer. It got him a goal. It may also have gotten him more ice time in the last 5 minutes. Will he be stuck back on the 4th line tonight?
- I mean, look at this sexy bastard - Why did we break up again?
- Hannay is so calm and smooth and dreamy and calm and smooth and dreamy and calm. You can call it slow, I will call it calm. I like how he smiles when he is punching people in the face. You can call it sadistic, I will call it zen. Sadly, he didn't punch anyone on the face last night. Read this story.
- Lemieux fought Savoie. Unlike Jessyko's goal it was the unsatisfying kind of quick.
- Some Quebec pussy refused to fight Metcalfe.
- Carl Gelinas was the 3rd star with a goal and an assist. Lemieux brought the puck to the net and Gelinas managed to lift it up and over Gagnon amidst a flurry of chaos.
- Corbeil flashed the leather and flashed the leather and flashed the leather. Props to trapper. Rawr. He is also taking more risks to corral the puck and stop the rebounds.
- Desi fanned and fanned and fanned. Poor Desjardins.
- Knotek won 15 of 23 faceoffs. Pelletier won 6 of 7.
- I saw Garrett Clarke standing all alone, be-mohawked, be-suited and friendless. I wanted to keep him company (and fix his hair).
- Dimitruk and I had a moment in the first period when he cleared the puck out of the Moose zone, and despite resistance from the Remparts, managed to get it all the way into their zone. No one else gave me a moment like that moment (well, maybe Gillard with some defensive plays and Jessyko in the third period for coming back and looking like Jessyko and actually being visible out there) and so - cookies to Dimitruk...even though he was on the ice for that Paquette goal. Please share with Jessyko.

Short handed...empty net...crap
The mooseheads lost to the Drummondville Voltigeurs 5-3. I will technically take that as a 4-3 since the volts got their 5th on a short handed empty netter with 3 seconds remaining in the game. Just so Couturier knows....that does not officially count as a hattie. Not in my books.
I was out. All I really know is the box score.
Charles Bety and Gerrad Grant (x2) were the goal scorers for Halifax.
Moose were balls considering that this was a last place team playing an upper tier team. BALLS.
Jessyko and I have broken up. I hope he feels unburdened now.

Just the facts
The Halifax Mooseheads took on Montreal in Montreal and came away with a point in a 4-3 shootout loss.
Lines:
Bahm, Bety, Stoddard
Randell, Knotek, Grant
Bernard, Pelletier, Desjardins
Metcalfe, Hannah
Amyot, Brunet
Dimitruk, Gillard
Costello was playing GQMF
About the Montreal JR:
Jake Allen was in nets for Mtl while my beloved David Stich was out with the flu.
Speaking of Hannay:
Is this not a face that everyones mother could love?
I think I am developing a problem. When you are 17 it is called a crush, when you are my age... it is called a problem. I think it's the joker smile. I am a sucker for joker smiles (see posts tagged Tomy Joly). I have to stay away from the CHL...or start watching the games blindfolded.The Mooseheads then got their second goal on the PP. Knotek made a pass to Randell who had come in from the point. Randell shot and the puck was deflected in by Bahm. The Moose finished the first period with a 2-0 lead.
Early in the second Corbeil was suffering from technical difficulty (an injured hand) and needed to be tended to so Grondin was put into nets. Grondin allowed a goal (on 3 shots) and was then immediately taken out of the net. Before the end of the second both Gouchie and Chouinard also scored to bring the Montreal Jr into the lead 3-2. Damn ex-Screagel. Don't say I didn't warn you!
The game went into overtime and nothing happened but it was awesome because it means that the Moose would be guaranteed 1 point. Every point is precious.
Tomas Knotek was the only Mooseheads to get a point in the shootout. Really? Randell? Whatever you say Cam!
Knotek (Hfx) – scores
Trevor Parks (Mtl) – scores
Gerrad Grant (Hfx) – save
Matthew Brenton (Mtl) - save
Carl Gelinas (Hfx) – save
Guillaume Asselin (Mtl) – save
Travis Randell (Hfx) – save
Jeremie Gouchie (Mtl) – scores

1,2,3,4 tell me that you love me more
After a 12 game losing streak the Halifax Mooseheads have come back with a four game winning home stand. Yes FOUR wins. Last night the Moose defeated the Baie Comeau Drakkar by a score of 4-1. Four wins, four goals and FOUR fights last night.
I don't want to write a big blog post. It is already too late for that. Newspapers have done their job.
Some small things:
The team is currently participating in a giant orgy of verbal fellating. Everybody is sooooo in love with each other and that's what makes it OK (and no one is getting used- this is what we tell our moms).
I mean check out these quotes from the past two days:
Metcalfe on the team - “We were talking about it in the room, we needed to have a good start and we did. Everyone played solid and everyone was confident.”
Dimitruk on the team - “That’s a hell of a hockey team, the Moncton Wildcats. They’re probably one of the most complete teams we’ll see all year … And that’s a testament to our work ethic that we beat them.”
Dimitruk on Corbeil - “He’s playing unbelievable. He’s bailed us out time after time. We’re absolutely riding on his back right now. He’s playing fantastic and I can’t say enough about his work ethic.”
Randell on my skills with men - "That feels unbelievable"*
Corbeil concurs - "It feels great"
Bety on Corbeil - "We’re winning because we’re working hard and Mathieu is also really helping us. He’s been playing really well since last week. We’re all very happy for him. And when he is playing like that, it is more comfortable for the rest of us. He is a big (reason) we are winning right now."
Corbeil on team - "Everyone kept working hard and everyone’s really happy now".
Randell on Corbeil - "With the goaltending we’re getting from Matt, if he keeps it up we’re going to have a chance to win every single night no matter what."
Quotes stolen from the following news links:
Palov - Moose win fourth straight
Moose shock Wildcats
Wuest - Moose top Drakkar for fourth straight win
Herd keeps rolling with win over Wildcats
Other news:
Casey - Mooseheads make it a perfect homestand
* actually he was talking about winning 4 in a row.
I don't want to write a big blog post. It is already too late for that. Newspapers have done their job.
Some small things:
- Konrad Abeltshauser and Garrett Clarke will each be out for over a week with knee injuries.
- If anyone else checks Gillard from behind again I will personally kill them. I can be far more vicious than Spencer Metcalfe. Ok that is a lie, but I bet you any money I can give that pretty little Olsson girl a hard bitch slap and make
himher cry. - Gerrad Grant needs to take his cloths off more often. May I suggest he not wear underarmour next time. Skinny is good. Girls like skinny, or at least they prefer skinny to over muscled meat-heads. Because Gerry couldn't follow up Friday night's 1G,1A performance with more goals he opted for fighting. It's like a Gordie Howe hat trick- but extended over 2 games.
- Goals were by Knotek, Bety and Gelinas (x2)
- Assists were by Bahm (x2), Stoddard, Andrews, Brunet, and Dimitruk
- Game stars were Gelinas (1), Bety (2), and Knotek (3)
- Mathieu Corbeil had another good performance making 32 saves on 33 shots for the win. The only Drakkar goal was on the power play.
- Fights were by Metcalfe (perfectly normal behavior), Hannay (take me now), Grant (what the?... oooooh striptease), and Gelinas (or dear God have mercy on his little face).
- Hannay has AMAZING eyebrows.
- I am not bitter about Stoddard anymore.

Who are you?
The Mooseheads (last place) just defeated the Moncton Wildcats (7th overall) by a score of 2-1. Sure they couldn't get a puck in that empty net for the last minute of play thus leaving me hanging from a perpetual cliff of excitement for the final minute of play but who cares - they won.
threeI am also pretty sure that their penises all got about 3 inches longer. That is like 69 extra inches of dick. Absolutely amazing. No one can resist that.
Dimitruk, Grant and Corbeil (36 MF saves) get stars. Corbeil and Gelinas share cookies.
If this were America's next top Model, and I was Tyra Banks, I would make one of Garrett or Gerrad change their name. I keep interchanging them. It does not help that both of their surnames can double for first names (Clarke and Grant). It is just not appropriate. Maybe I will start calling Gerrad by the name Gerry...just like his mommy does. Will that clear up the confusion?
Updates (post edit)
There is a mystical connection between my bladder and the Mooseheads:
When I go to the bathroom they score. I don't know why. I am not planning on spending all of my game time in the bathroom, but it remains a possibility should the team start to play horribly.
The Key is defence:
...or at least 4 defencemen. Which was pretty much all the Mooseheads had last night. Abeltshauser hobbled off the ice after being knocked into his own net and ended up with a knee injury. Instead of kissing his knee better the ref decided to give him a 2 minute minor for hooking or holding. Moncton got their first and only goal as a result.
Down 1 Special K for the rest of the game.
Then early in the second Metcalfe gets a 15 minute penalty. This leaves 5 defencemen (7 were playing). At the end of the second Clarke got another 15 minutes. At some point Amyot, Dimitruk, Hannay and Gillard were the only defencemen. Despite this the team held on and did not allow Moncton to get back at our net. Hence why Dimitruk gets stars.
But why did Gelinas get cookies? He had only one shot on net, no hits and was overall may not have been a guy you noticed. But I noticed him. He was boppin' and weavin' and stickhandling and skating with much effort - always trying to get that puck in front of the net. He kept popping into my visual field saying "look at me" ...and I kept noticing. Besides, its my blog and if I want to give cookies to Gelinas just because I think he looks like a squirrel* then I can do so.
But he has to share with Corbeil and I hope nobody minds that I gave some raw cookie dough to Louis Domingue. I may have also let him clean the bowl...and the spoon...and the beaters...and sneak some chocolate chips from the package. What?
...because really - both goalies faced over 30 shots and the score was 2-1. Both were solid...as was the empty net. Damn that net really knows how to keep Randell off the score board. It's like it moves its posts or something. No goals on 3 empty net shots.
wars10 minutes because refs lick ass:
Both Metcalfe and Clarke got scrappy. Both Metcalfe and Clarke got 5 for fighting and an additional 10 minutes ...because refs were punishing them for the balloon boy incident? Like dude, I don't know! Apparently Metcalfe was given an extra 10 minutes for a hand motion to pump up the crowd- a hand motion which was so subtle that I probably wouldn't have noticed it if I wasn't wearing my glasses. Admittedly if I wasn't wearing my glasses I probably wouldn't have even know that was Metcalfe and may have confused the Mooseheads for the Minnesota Wild...so yeah, I'm blind. I also drink my beer with a straw. You got a problem with that?
This is bullshit. I enjoy showboating. Everybody enjoys showboating. Even when a player from the other team showboats I like it. The bigger the better. It makes them stand out and reminds me who I should hate (eg. ASShton Bernard using his imaginary bow and arrows). QMJHL hockey needs more showboating, not less.

Supercalipugilisticexpialidocious - Lucic Style
The Halifax Mooseheads face off against the Moncton Wildcats tonight at 7:00pm. My possible future goalie husband Baby LBD will be there. Not that I am currently seeking a replacement for Martin Brodeur, because Marty rocks and the Devils rock and everyone said the Devils would fail to rock this year and yet there they are - still rocking. It's kinda like how the Earth revolves around the sun. But anyway, I was talking about LBD...I'm just saying Marty can't play forever and the door is always open should he break into the NHL someday.
The Moose are rearing to go. Everyone is back to healthy, everyone of course being Jessyko Bernard (flu) and Alexandre Brunet (groin). There may be some issue with Cam Russell wanting to re-ice last weekend's winning team...a team which was lacking in guys named Jessyko Bernard and Alexandre Brunet. I say that while it is nice to reward players for doing well it is somewhat cruel to punish a player for being injured.
I personally would like to see if Jessyko has changed. Did the flu leave him with superpowers? Did he fight of the flu Lucic style. Was he pugnacious with the flu or did he just lay there and let the flu do him like a pretty lady. Furthermore, will he be a monster on the ice (Lucic style)? This is a question best answered 'in game'.
Is he still handsome? Is he still stylish? These are questioned better answered while wearing a suit and tie and wandering the concourse.
I am torn! Which Jessyko do I want? I think that Jessyko can play 'tougher' than he has been playing lately. Not Clarke and Metcalfe tough...just tougher than his last few games. I think that toughness and sensitive actually can exist in the same man - like Hugh Jackman. Fancy dancing can be held to intermissions and pre-game warm ups, and sexy-dancing (Lucic Style) can take place mid-game.
For now I want toughness. Can Jessyko be ridiculed into pulling out his balls and placing them firmly on the chins of the Moncton Wildcats?
Victim #2: Jessyko Bernard
What? You are my boyfriend and you thought you were going to get away without kisses and hearts? What kind of woman do you think I am?
Listen dude, just because we are on a break it doesn't mean that I can't still want to laugh at your dancing and get all jealous when I see some other girl wearing a game worn Bernard jersey. I was going to bid on your Vees jersey last year but I did not. You should ask your ex-goalie about all the things I did NOT spend that money on. I think it eventually went towards the purchase of some shoes.
Anyholygiganticpuppy, you are aware that when you hit people you should be leaving little corpses in your wake, right? I had considered the possibility of putting butterflies in your wake (I have been seeing more of those lately) but went with a more optimistic outcome. Flying corpses it is!
Saint Bernard! It has a 'Boondock Saints' kinda ring to it. You could be a mutherfuckin' gangsta on the ice...but lately you have been more puppy than beast. A puppy is great for cuddling but I am pretty sure that the other teams (like most women) want to be ravaged. If you can't score take their limbs as a reward - their limbs or their women.
What? You think no one besides me cares that you have been playing like this. It might start to cost you games. Dude, the world now knows. This is a word visitor map of the last 100 hits to my blog as of 8:00 pm last Tuesday night. Yes, they know.

Corbeil's awesomeness is fueled by cookies
The Moooooose have won two in a row. Tonight they defeated the PEI Rocket by a score of 4-1. It would have been 4-0 had the Rocket not destroyed Corbeil's shutout bid with only 30.5 seconds remaining in the game. What a bunch of stupid fucktards. Grrrrrr
win
The Moose were 1/4 on the power play and kept the Rockettes to 0 on 5 power play opportunities.
Andrews had his first QMJHL goal and I feel like the world is a better place today. Bahm has 5 points in 5 games, Knotek is on a 3 game point streak, Desi is back on track with a second goal in as many games and I was sooooooooooooo right when I said he should be paired up with Dr Carlossus.
...but you can call him Gelinas
Oh and Hannay - swoon mutherfucker. I am so in love. Wanna wrestle?
This blog post will be updated later. I am going to go play with pictures.

Champions indeed
I kinda thought that this game might be a disaster. Let me explain. As the camera screened the bench during the national anthem one of the boys had his finger firmly planted up his nose. Was this game going to be just as embarrassing?
As it turns out the Mooseheads won their second game of the season in a bold 6-1 routing of the Val d'Or foreurs. In fact, their first win was also a 6-1 routing of the Val d'Do Foreurs. This is creepy.
Hockey friend the Mooseheads good.
The points didn't start adding up until the end of the second period but once the boys realized that yes, indeed, they can score they really got on a roll. Now that I also know that everyone can score I will not settle for any more of this no-goals (or 1-2 goals) shenanigans they keep trying to pull on me.
The scoring started in the first period when Sawyer Hannay, getting out of the box, received a pass (omg tape to tape) from 'the second coming of' Carl Gelinas. Hannay, head down, tore towards the goal putting the puck on Raffaele D'Orso (and his dreamy Movember mo-stache), scoring and then falling down and knocking over the net. Yeah. WHAT A STUDMUFFIN*!!!
At that point I took the cookies away from Lemieux (I was really liking Lemieux) and gave them to Hannay.
The rest of the period was goalless, as was most of the second. Then at the 15 minute mark Halifax had their 2nd goal. Then their third... and a fourth. Val d'Or snuck one in there too but that one is irrelevant.
In the third the boys just kept on rolling. A goal by Gabe Desjardins proved that blingee shaming does work and that Gabe has mad "fist pump skills". Bahm rounded out the scoring with a power-play marker to make the final score 6-1. I just wanna keep reminding everyone that the score was 6-1.
It would be easier to point out who didn't get points last night but then the boys who did get points would not get their props. Pointy boys include:
Hannay (1st goal)
Amyot (2nd goal)
Knotek (3rd goal, assist on Bahm goal)
Stoddard (4th goal)
Desjardins (5th goal)
Bahm (6th goal, assist on Stoddard goal)
Clarke (assist on Knotek goal)
Abeltshauser (assist on Amyot goal)
Costello (assist on Desjardins goal)
Gelinas (assist on Hannay goal)
Grant (assist on Bahm goal)
Bety (assist on Stoddard goal)
Lemieux (assist on Amyot goal)
Hannay's goal marks his first QMJHL goal, Stoddard's was his first regular season goal as a Moosehead.
Moose also dominated the stars:
HAL - Corbeil-Thériault, Mathieu
HAL - Knotek, Tomas
HAL - Clarke, Garrett
Now admittedly Corbeil was totally boss, stopping a number of breakaway chances, numerous rebounds as the Foreurs were piled around his net, and a weird backwards pass by Abeltshauser that ended up directed towards our own goal. In total Corbeil stopped 32 of 33 shots thrown on net. There may have also been a bold, sexy glove save. It turned out that in the end it was he, the goalie, who got the cookies. Shocking I know...but goalies. You know I have a weakness. I recommend he share since he got cookies for the last game too and we don't need him getting fat (or having a baby, getting married, going bald or letting Sean Coulton steal his profile).
To make life more exciting I shall put up some inneresting** stats:
1) Did you know that Abeltshauser and Gelinas are in the top 25 of QMJHL rookie scorers? They are. Konrad stands at #21 with 10 pts, 2 goals and 8 assists in 15 games. 'Dr Carlossus' is 24th with 9pts, 4 goals and 5 assists in 21 games. Gelinas is also 20th amoung rookies for goals scored.
2) Having scored another 2 goals on the power play last night, thus going 2/6, means that the power play is apparently back on track. The powerplay is currently at 22.6%, 8th in the league, but actually equal to Cape Breton and Shawinigan who occupy the 7th and 6th spots.
3) Linden Bahm has 4 points in his last 4 games. Dreams can come true.
4) Tomas Knotek has reached the 20 point mark. 20 pts in 20 games.
5) Charles Bety had 6 hits and won 12 of 20 faceoffs. Unsung hero stuff that some people like to forget about. Not me though.
6) I kinda like Clarke but will admit that he is kind of a douchebag. Really, what was with the leglock? Anybody who can piss off Charland so much that he would fight in the 'no fight' time at the end of the game must be massively annoying. My Foreurs boyfriend Keven Charland doesn't play like that! Admittedly, that is not a stat.

2) Having scored another 2 goals on the power play last night, thus going 2/6, means that the power play is apparently back on track. The powerplay is currently at 22.6%, 8th in the league, but actually equal to Cape Breton and Shawinigan who occupy the 7th and 6th spots.
3) Linden Bahm has 4 points in his last 4 games. Dreams can come true.
4) Tomas Knotek has reached the 20 point mark. 20 pts in 20 games.
5) Charles Bety had 6 hits and won 12 of 20 faceoffs. Unsung hero stuff that some people like to forget about. Not me though.
6) I kinda like Clarke but will admit that he is kind of a douchebag. Really, what was with the leglock? Anybody who can piss off Charland so much that he would fight in the 'no fight' time at the end of the game must be massively annoying. My Foreurs boyfriend Keven Charland doesn't play like that! Admittedly, that is not a stat.

Busy or lazy? Pre-game/post game
I have not run off and committed suicide following the demotion of Alex MacDonald. I have just been so busy that I don't want to spend my down time blogging. I have lost my creative juices. Blame science.
Last Wednesday the Mooseheads lost to the Saint John Sea Dogs by a score of 3-2. The game was so close up until the last few minutes when Pard got a goal for the Sea Dogs. Apparently the Moose Deserved to win.
The Moose were 2/4 on the power play with goals by Carl Gelinas (Amyot, Abeltshauser) and Gerrad Grant (Knotek, Clarke). Corbeil stopped 23 of 26 shots and was the second star of the game. For that he is also getting cookies, but the lazy kind -Pillsbury, because I am lazy. Sooooo lazy.
Please note that the Sea Dogs are currently leading the division and the Moose are way behind. They played a pretty damn tough game considering. Here is hoping to the beginning of some new point streaks for Knotek and Grant, the second coming of Gelinas, and the metamorphosis of Bahm from a 3/4th line grinder to a 3/4th line grinder that also scores (a girl can dream).
I have more embarrassing blingees prepared. Gelinas is safe for now.
Tonight the Moose play the Val d'Or Foreurs. In 2.5 hours I hope to see more balls-out hockey, just like the boys played in Saint John.
