La Coupe Hauxer

A battle for hockey bragging rights through head to head competition between each of our favorite teams - Devils (Brad), Flyers (Wiley), Penguins (Sam), and Capitals (Fritz/William). The winner(s) gets the historic La Coupe Hauxer and the universal currency of respect/adminiration. The loser(s) gets the Stanley Screwdriver, the universal currency of humiliation and has to buy everyone dinner at the Vienna Inn. Game on!

We had 'em all along!

A 3-0 deficit on the road -- no big deal for the Capitals. Didn't I say the Caps always score 4 goals? Good job keeping Alex Ovechkin (was he hitting too hard?) off of the scoresheet, but this just in -- the Caps have a lot of guys who can score. They move up to 3-1 in the NHL and 1-0 in La Coupe Hauxer despite Jose Theodore.

Caps vs. Pengyunz round 1

Oh joy, four games into the season, the Capitals head to the rust belt for a game against the Gary Bettman's favorite team, the Pengyunz. Since it is a Vs. telecast, we can expect lots of talk about how Sidney Crosby is the greatest player human being ever despite the fact he is not smart or talented enough to avoid going blade first into the boards last season. We can't let that get in the way of the NHL's insistence to promote a team from a city/region that has been losing population for over 40 years. Any wonder the NHL is the #4 league?

Alex Ovechkin has been quiet thus far, scoring only two goals in three games. The rest of the Caps have been shooting the puck pretty well, having scored at least four goals in every game.

No excuses!

I realize that there have been a few changes in family dynamics in the off season. But that does not excuse anyone from participating in the glorious, La Coupe Hauxer. It is time for some smack talk, starting with tonights opener against those jerk-offs from Pittsburg. We are gonna continue with the usual seasonal beat down of the 'Guins starting this evening. But more importantly, this is the year the Devils go down. This year there has to be a much more manly drink the La Coupe than that pussy stuff Brad keeps on drinking. So eveyone lets get off your asses and get in the game! DOWN WITH THE DEVILS! GO FLYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
