Me and you. We’re gonna go. Welcome to the Goon Blog.
I have been thinking of doing something like this for quite some time. I love hockey, and I love hockey fights. This is going to be an open forum to talk about fights, enforcers, and general toughguy happenings. In its infancy, it will probably be my observations and the odd snickerings of my fight fan friends. I would like to take it to a point where it is a place for everything goons and goonettes are looking for in a fight-related site.
So, ideas are welcome. Feel free to email me at any time with questions, comments and suggestions. So welcome, sit back, put on the foil and look around, if you want to drop the mitts and have a go, feel free to make any comments. Thanks for checking us out here at www.goonblog.com! Give ‘er!

A friend, looking for sites that talked about how much Hal Gill sucks, stumbled across this, sent it to me, and I almost pissed myself laughing.
I linked to it in a post on my Musings From The Meathead blog (still figuring out a way to permanently have it listed on the main page), and just wanted to tell you to keep up the good work!
Chris
Thanks for the Props Edju! Dave, add this guy to the Blogroll. He knows quality when he sees it!

my personal oppinion about fights might not apply to every one but i think that it is great entertainment but it comes to a limit and some times the fights suck, look at gretzki’s first fight, it sucked, he stood there for 5 minutes and didnt throw one punch! on the other hand, goalie fights are the best, so, keep the punches flying!
Chris
Interesting note. Gretzky’s first fight came on the night he was named Sports Illustrated’s Sportsman of the Year. Gretz wasn’t exatly known for fighting, so it really isn’t a surprise the tilt sucked. I love a good goalie fight. I have a great story about a goalie fight I will share later today. Thanks for the props Clay!

I’m glad theres still people like you who love hockey fites, its a great aspect of the game. I just hope somebody knocks Crosby that flake.
Chris
Pittsburgh just traded for “Big Daddy” Eric Cairns. I would imagine they added him because Crosby is becoming a marked man with his mouth, and diving. I think fights will go up after the Olympics. The boys have figured out the rules, and some of the emotion is back.
Chris
Cairns had a fight Saturday with Turner Stevenson. No punches thrown. Pretty lame Millhouse.

Hockey is great and the fights are too. Fighting is down but not done by any means. It is starting to happen and teams are starting to realize they need fighters a perfect example is pittsburg getting Cairns to protect Crosby. The rangers should take th ehint from there divisional foe and pick someone up. The rangers will constantly get pushed and bullied unless they get someone that can fights and Strudwick and Hollweg aren’t heavywiegths by any means. This lack of protection will cause much problems especially as the playoff picture wind sup and the rangers lead man jagr and the rest will be bullied. so the fighter is a big value and neccesary part of the game and of course who doesn’t wanna see a good scrap.
Chris
Sean, I agree with you. The Rangers have a Heavywieght sitting on the bench in Colton Orr. I don’t remember the last time he played. Problem is, the days of the Heavywieghts may be gone. You have to be able to play a little too.

this site is filled with the plug-line
holy fuck…
Chris
Plug Line? Never heard that. Interesting you would take the time to post that you don’t like the site. Are you trying to pad your cyber fight stats? What would you do differently, goonblog blows?
Edju Martin
Does this look like a place to plug fucking soap?
The only face wash we’re interested in isn’t from some shitty white bar.
