I’m not religious, but my family celebrates. Santa and all that stuff. Anyway, my wife and I decided to hold an Open House tomorrow. If you want to stop by and meet the family, dogs and fish, holler at me on twiter @dangeroushockey or email me at mraxlrose@yahoo.com
If you can’t come, enjoy this Winter HOCKEY video: Head Shot
"One way ticket to Hell Leonard" Seriously, how can people believe in this crap?
18 years ago, just bout 11am, my pager (lol) went off. It was from my (alleged) Policeman cousin, Tom. I knew someone had died. He NEVER paged me. At the time, I feared it was one of my brothers, home from college, doing a little too much partying. Quickly I found out it was my 52-year-old father. He died in jail, right in front of my high school buddy. I was fighting with him at the time. My father, Lenny, was an interesting man. While it was difficult to love him at the time, he was, is, and always will be my dad. Hockey? He did get his hung over, ass up at 5am, to drive me to practices. Games, I don’t think he made many, they were during drinking hours.
52 & dead. Nobody in my immediate family ever met him. But they know him. We’ve been
People hated this title. Still unsure why?
making a film (release date May 2012) for the past year and half. (see clip here) Honestly, it’s one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done for many, many reasons.
Why today’s blog? Well, if he didn’t impregnate my mother (which I have no scientific proof, but suspect it’s true) I would have never had chance to play hockey. To teach my kids about hockey. To write about hockey. To watch hockey. To argue about hockey. To live through the Wayne Gretzky era. To watch the 1980 US Olympic team on TV with rabbit ears. Travel the world, and enjoy playing and watching hockey. To watch idiots like Matthew Barnaby, do the same shit my dad did, in spite of having everything I think my dad wanted. Happy Hockey Days. Love your jackass hockey blogger, Lenny’s son.
Too bad you're not around for Mo Vember Dad!
Dangeroushockey has obtained unreleased footage (thanks to Irish dude) of the John Scott pummeling Pittsburgh’s Deryk Engelland
Although, in my opinion, Deryk is among, if not the best fighter in the NHL. He didn’t stand a chance against the guy who had about 60 lbs and 8 inches on him. Warning Graphic Material, may not be suitable for young children. Many will use this as propaganda to end fighting in hockey. However, the Pens report that Engelland has “NO CONCUSSION” I repeat. “NO CONCUSSION” He also has no head, however is expected to make a full recovery. No word on whether Scott will face action from the league. However he was fined $75 for breaking a “perfectly innocent wireless mic.”
It was only a matter of time, before the “scourge of the hockey blogger world” became not only a fan favorite, but also a player favorite. “Let’s face it, other than that Yahoo guy, we’re the only one with the sac to tell it like it is. Or should be? Or wasn’t but make it up
"I'm guessing Avery got ahold of his phone?"
in a funny way.” said DH owner Rocco T. And so it happened. Early this AM, the first official “Follow” from an NHL player. Michael Del Zappa of the New York Rangers. “Ya, we made fun of the kid whining about his collision into the boards. Maybe he wants to kill me? Maybe he liked my Mork picture of Dale Hunter? Who cares? Either way, bet he’s not following CapsVogs, or that other guy.” said a clearly proud Tremaglio when asked about his newest Twitter pal.
“Fame is a fucking cage, he knows he gets the real deal here.” This is certainly not Dangeroushockey’s first brush with fame and likely won’t be his last. After all, he was in HBO’s 24/7 original episode. To see that the NHL players are finally waking up to the new world of media, is refreshing. We are excited to see where this leads. Rest assured, regardless of how or why, it’s now official, DH will be officially rooting for the NY Rangers in the Winter Classic.
Which ironically, may be the most interesting part of the entire event.
Love the world’s greatest hockey blog.
Not exactly Tiger Williams
Yes, it’s very true. I had a parent attack me when I was 15. I vaguely remember, but what I’m telling you is true. It was some meaningless, city league game in Mentor, Ohio. Some background, I’ve never been in a hockey fight in nearly 25 year of playing. I played tough and frustrated other players, but my career penalty minute total was likely 80 minutes? I also played clean.
To the incident. As the period ended, we exited. The locker rooms were right in between the stands. As we walked off the some dude (had to be a kids father) was screaming at me. It all happened so quick. I looked over and just laughed at him (i may have said something, who knows) then he jumps off the steps and right on to me!! He punched me at least 2 times in the face. For those of you who don’t know, we had to wear metal cages at that age,
"I have nothing to do with this story."
so it really didn’t hurt at all. I’m guessing it hurt him more than me.
It broke it up, and into the locker room I went. It made for some fun in between period locker room talk. I had so much adrenaline pumping that I wasn’t scared at all really. But there’s a big difference between 12 and 15. Hockey, by its nature is a very aggressive and emotionally charged sport. I’m sure I was knocking his kid around on the ice and he didn’t like it. The problem here (not that there’s ever an excuse) but it’s legal and OK for me to knock the living shit out of his kid. As long as I’m doing it the hockey way. Which, for the most, part was how I always played the game. The game that I love. The game that you love, or should.
Until now, I pretty much forgotten about this brawl. But as these little memories of the past pop back into the forefront, it’s almost like you re-live it for a moment. Almost. Bleed hockey, you peanuts. Luv ya and happy holidays.
PS: If the guy who did this is reading, wanna another shot at the title:)
"Appears only dogs and firemen are allowed to use?"
This story is weird to begin with. It started with 4 dudes getting busted for supposedly stealing water from a city fire hydrant to fill their homemade ice rink. The beautiful Ashley Reuff, of the Chicago Tribune tells the story perfectly, right here: Click to read.
Once DH got wind, of course we wanted to help. Appears we weren’t the only ones. According to Anthony, and the Tribune, they got multiple offers from total strangers/ hockey lovers to ensure the end result is “Game On!”
My role here is to still being defined. However, rest assured, if Dangeroushockey has anything to do with it, the local police will be playing the firemen in a charity game with the boys serving as refs for an annual holiday event.
"Do we even need ice for this?"
We shall see how it plays out, but in my multiple conversations with one of then young lads, they want to turn lemons into lemonade. Or Water into ice. Legal water. Stay tuned fans……More to come. Bleed hockey.
The show was awesome. And I got a guitar pick.
"Pick and Puck are separated by U and I"
Dangeroushockey is in talks with dadada productions about a reality show starring the unemployed, erratic, and often dangerous Matthew Barnaby.
"Gimme the Keys you fuckin Cocksucker."
The mediocre, ex NHLer, most recently was busted for driving his Porsche drunk, on 3 wheels. “I would have preferred he had his kids in the car and was on cell phone yelling racial slurs at his wife’s boyfriend, but this is just the kind of kid we’re looking for.” said Rocque Trem.
Trem heads up the development arm of dadada films, inc. Best known for the uncompleted films “Did Grandpa Like Root Beer?” and “Poovie.” The show would revolve around Barnaby being an intern for the hockey blog juggernaut, Dangeroushockey.com. “Sure, he’s perfect for this role. We always wondered what the fuck ESPN was thinking having him on. He could barely play hockey, so he’s qualified as an expert analyst (think Trent Dilfer)?” spouted Trem.
“We’d much rather have Matt in a place he belongs and can flourish. Dangeroushockey.com is just that place.” Trem is some sort of blood relative of Rocco Tremaglio, owner of the controversial hockey blog. Both have had their differences with Barnaby in the past. “That’s ancient history. The guy’s a mess. I knew it. I can help him. ESPN fired us too. He’d make a perfect intern.” said Tremaglio
No word from the Barnaby camp but word is, they are awaiting to see if it’s a paid or
"Barnaby, Barnaby, Barnaby!!!"
unpaid internship and whether Matt can get retroactive credits for uncompleted college courses.

"Think Axl will buy an NHL team?"
How does GnR relate to Hockey: I’ve seen Axl wear MANY hockey jerseys on stage, Bumblefoot is a huge (i think) Islanders fan, and I’m certain the other guys are fans of hockey because it’s the greatest sport on earth and they are the greatest band. So there ya have it.
CONGRATS TO MIKE FROM Y-TOWN!!!!!! (thanks Bumblefoot and Fox 8)
See his actual entry below. Thanks to EVERYONE who entered!!! Tough to choose but Mike gets it for the following reasons: 1. Recognizing he has NO chance against a hot chick (he was wrong, you’re all hot). 2. Submitting a home-video of one of the Slap Shot epically famous Hanson Brothers along with THE GnR playing in background. While the video may bore the average viewer, any hockey fan will immediately fall in love with it. You can smell the ice. You can fell the energy of the 80 or so Younstownonians who showed for this “Charity Event.” Mike also, except for Metallica, fired off some classic Metal bands he’s a fan of. Finally and, damn if Puck Daddy didn’t hate me, Mike (CLEVELAND BOY and STANLY CUP WINNER) Rupp walking off the ice in his Devils’ jersey. VIDEO:
Mike’s ACTUAL EMAIL BELOW:
| Saw your post about the offer of the free ticket on the GNR forum. Thought I’d make a futile stab in the dark at securing a ticket since I really have nothing to do that night and live in town. Now, of course, you would probably be absolutely insane not to take a hot (or somewhat reasonably attractive) young lady to this show. I think GNR and most of the male population of Earth would agree in that sense.In the event that some beautiful young thing flakes out on you, I’d gladly take the ticket and stand next to you. I’m a 34-year-old admirer of rock music. I’ve seen just about every band of any great significance in the past 17 or so years of going to shows. Metallica, AC/DC, KISS, Judas Priest, Dio, Maiden and hundreds of obscure punk groups the guys in GNR probably worshiped as kids. I never really planned on seeing GNR to be honest, but what the hell? I can drive two minutes and check them off the list.As far as hockey, I have a casual interest in the sport. As in sometimes going to minor league games in town and drinking a beer (or two) while watching either of the local clubs (Steelhounds or Phantoms). You say you except video? Well, I once video recorded Dave Hanson (of Slap Shot! fame) when he played a charity event in that joint. In the background you can hear “Welcome to the Jungle”. Does that count?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOQ1dxsxoRUTake it easy,
