I was all set to update you on stuff I missed this week, which was a lot by the way, when I opened my email and found this pile of shit. I really don’t even know what to say. Maybe if we stopped shielding kids from everything bad in the world they might actually have coping skills like the rest of us. Instead we tell kids that when a man stands up for another man because they believe in the same cause, he’s going to kill someone and must be stopped. The scary thing is, this guy’s kid could be running this country some day and he’ll have no idea what it’s like to fight to defend himself. Dennis Bonvie, we here at Goonblog love what you do, and we know why you do it. Thanks for the memories!

2024-03-25The Top 5 Fighters in the NHL - 2024
There’s been a lot of hockey on as of late that featured zero fights. The NHL All Star game, the Beanpot, and "any Boston Bruins game" to name a few.
Seriously, I don’t even remember the last time the Bruins had a fight. I see scraps throughout the National, and other leagues, so I know it’s still a "thing" - just not with our beloved Bruins.

2024-01-12The Future of the Hockey Enforcer
I get this question a lot these days, as friends and relatives are well aware of my proclivity for a good ol' professional on-ice donnybrook. While I have strong opinions as to the best answer - the true future of the NHL hockey enforcer and the fights they once graced fans with - I don't have to like it. And, frankly, I don't.Where Have All the Good Goons Gone?On the ice, are there even any classic goons left? Gone are Shawn Thornton, Trevor Gillies, Brendan Walsh and most of the other Goonblo...

Quite a while since we’ve all gathered on this once popular, and even slightly sacred, little corner of the internet, hasn’t it?
Goonblog.com was cold kicking ass for a couple of years if we’re being honest. We had the traffic, we had the quotes, we had the backlinks. I dare say we even had a sizeable and always growing fan base who we loved interacting with daily. So where did it all go wrong?
Well, the Bruins won the cup in 2011, Goonblog Girl Emma got married, we both had babies... an...

100% correct!!!
I think i need to go sucker punch that writer as he walks down the street with now idea of what the fuck is going to hit him!
Cause he sure as hell don’t know what he’s fricking writing about that clueless fucker!
It’s a part of the GAME!
Todd, I agree with you. I bet you the guy has never played any sport in his life. Never mind hockey.
Have the Bruins even had their first game yet? I also want to say I hate these new tight fitting shirts. They looks so gay, i cannot stand it.
I am sure he is one of those “it’s OK if you don’t win” type of panty wearing Hillary following whimps.
I would bet he got his ass kicked when he was little (and by that i mean last week)
Brings all new meaning too, “You’d better get a man around the house before that boy ends up with a dick in his mouth”
I tuned into the Rangers vs. Islanders game hoping to see at least a few fights considering the last pre-season game they had was a throw down festival. Wouldn’t you know it, there wasn’t one fight. A 2-1 snooze fest with a blind guy scoring the winning goal. Let’s go boys, we need some fisticuffs!
Unless the NHL lets the fists fly this game and league will be gone in a couple years. These games are like watching paint dry. I also was catching zzzzz’s during the battle of NY last night. I think Vinny Mac should start a new pro pucks league and bring back the goon/police man!!!!
what the fuck!
did anybody see boulerice’s cross-check against kesler during the PHL/VAN game?

TSN’s Bob McKenzie:
“It can easily be argued this incident is far worse than teammate Steve Downie’s 20-gamer for lowering the boom on Ottawa’s Dean McAmmond. Downie didn’t use his stick; McAmmond had at least touched the puck in the moments before the hit.
If Boulerice doesn’t get at least 20 games, something’s not right with this picture.
And if the NHL really wanted to make a statement, to send a message that there’s no place in the game for a play like that, or a player who would do that, it would really tag Boulerice and make an example of him. Take your pick – 40, 60, 80, life.
But 20 should be the floor on this one because what Boulerice did was so utterly senseless and pointless and not part of the game. At least it shouldn’t be”
Stefan – the link didn’t work but I found this one:

Wholly shit, he almost decapitated Keslar. I would agree with you that he needs to be gone at least 20 games if not more. He hit the poor prick right in the throat. When are these meatheads gonna learn to drop the stick and gloves and have at it. As soon as they introduce the stick and use it as a weapon they are just asking to get bounced.
Hey Killer, I tried both of those links. (yours and Stefans)and neither one worked.
Sorry about that Red Thunder, something must be up with the link. Go to YouTube and in the search window type in:
boulerice kesler hockey
You will then be able to click on the link.
Thanx Killer, I got it to come up this time….. And what A fucken loser. He should be sentenced to twenty minutes in the vancouver locker room. Then suspended for at least the season. Charged with assault with A deadly weapon. Then cross checked in the face with A goalie stick. (I volunteer)
