Relocating

The blog is relocating to Twitter, @ErreyBlog. Hopefully that format will be more conducive to my laziness and will actually have updates...

1/5/2011; Pens vs. Lightning

"He's got a spear. He's not in there fly fishing."

Pens vs. Ky-Oats; 12/20/2010

"I might have hats raining down on me again...then I can bring home Christmas presents!"

"The Penguins are like a pack of ky-oats right now...feasting on their own."

Pens vs. Leafs; 12/8/2010

"Muhammad Aulie he is not right there!"

Pens Vs. Rangers; 11/29/2010

"Michalek sucks in a lot of pucks. He's like a Hoover."

Special note is needed to remember Steiggy singing Corey Hart's "Sunglasses at Night" in reference to Avery's picture...

Pens vs. Senators; 11/26/2010

"Sergei Gonchar doesn't have the green jacket yet...minus-12...but he's certainly in the running."

Pens vs. Canucks; 11/17/2010

"Luongo's like a polar bear in net!"

"You can't take your foot off the snake!"

"The Sedin's have that beat. They lived under the same roof."

Pens vs. Lightning; 11/12/2010

In lieu of an Errey quote (due to missing part of the game and watching the rest at a bar), I leave you with an overheard quote from some slore walking down Forbes Avenue in Oakland:

"I want you to get some action tonight, but you get action every weekend..."

Pens vs. Bruins; 11/10/2010

What are the odds on Errey saying of Tim Thomas at some point tonight: "He Tuukka the job back!"?

"Brent Johnson has stoled the show!"

On Malkin: "I thought the circus left town!"

"Tim Thomas looking through the prison bars or something there...it's like he was caught..."

Pens vs. Lightning; 10/27/2010

"Pascal Dupuis is banging on the [penalty box] door saying 'keep me in! Keep me in!'"

Pens vs. Nashville; 10/21/2010

How many Tootoo puns were made tonight?

"Well Nashville's got Brooks and Dunn, Pittsburgh's got Crosby and Malkin!"

"Cheater cheater pumpkin eater!"

Pens vs. Ottawa; 10/18/2010

Updates are back, but will now be less accurate due to the lack of a DVR...which also may hinder my ability to update for every game. Whatever. Enjoy.

"The ice is frozen, but it's almost like it was...a pool...with the way they were swimming around."

"He escaped out of there backwards like a hummingbird! It's like when you try to catch a fly, Steiggy!"

Re: Kunitz

3 ASS = 1 GOAL

I thought we should all remember and treasure that fact...

2009-2010

Errey Blog is on an indefinite hiatus due to work/school overload. Might be back for the second half of the season, might not. We'll see. I'll put up anything mind-blowing. Other than that, hiatus.

With that, I leave you my favorite quote of the year to this point:

"I love stuff. Don't you?"

No words...

Wait...what? Pt. 2

Anyone else think Datsyuk gave Pierre McGuire a handjob after hearing this quote?

"His hand skills are excessive!"

Wait...what?

Pierre McGuire: "I think about the thickness of Brian Trottier."

Playoffs

In case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm taking the playoffs off as I'd rather just watch the games and enjoy them without having to worry about writing/typing stuff down. That and I've ended up watching the games in a lot of random places.

Side note:
How did Mike Green get nominated for the Norris Trophy? I thought you had to play defense to be considered the best defenseman...

From his Sportsnet.ca profile:

Scouting Report

Assets

Is a tremendous skater and a natural point producer from the back end. Likes to initiate contact and is cool under heavy fire.

Flaws

Is mistake-prone in the defensive zone, which negates some of his overall effectiveness. Needs to add a little more discipline to his game.

Career potential

Power play quarterback.

Games 81 and 82

Out of town. Whoops...

Game 79; Pens vs. "Bolts"

Steiggy: "Eaton got out of the way of a big hit there!"
Errey: "Did he?" (as Eaton lies on the ice after getting slammed into the boards)

"He looked like an antelope there, Staal. And Stamkos was like a deer in the headlights!"*






*As soon as I heard this one, I kept hoping the animal comparisons would continue. In my mind all I could think of was this:
"Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over."
