I love them! Cheesier the better. Awesome. I do agree with the person who said the overuse of "singing the Blues" is getting old. They can't come up with much else there I guess.

The puns are the only thing I like about NHL.com.

[GrigsAndGirgs]

"How Swede It Is" has definitely been a repeat offender.

They do puns because without them, they end up with stories like this:

[Dudehama]

I'm pretty sure Finland, Sweden, and Czech Republic were all named that way for terrible NHL.com puns.

I love a good cheesy joke, but they need to stop using "How Swede It Is", I've seen it a million times.

This is actually one of the more interesting threads on the main board anyway - with the POs in full swing, the main board is very topic-challenged right now.


So.... thx for this complaint thread, OP!

I love puns, the cheesier the better in my opinion. Gene cracks me up as an Oiler fan....when he sticks to puns, I'm not a fan of the props.

[delled]

They really struck out with the Pittsburgh/Philly game, the headline should have been

"Schenn thinks Arron Should be Asham of Himself"
