Twitter Time #14 | Sidney's Return

Ha, I noticed NHL was blogging some players' tweets too the day Crosby's return was announced ... #copycats ... although that would imply they'd come across my puny blog. I doubt it! :D

Anyways, I creeped all the NHL and AHL players I follow on Twitter ... SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO! It was a boring task. Here the tweets I came across ... the prize for funniest tweet goes to Colby Armstrong.

Enjoy! Or not ... ;)

Ryan Whitney
"yup, this leagues still a joke for me." -Sidney Crosby 4 minutes into first game back 

Tyler Bozak 

Wow Sidney Crosby. What a player. It was great for the game of hockey to have him back on the ice putting on a show again 

Colby Armstrong 

Great to have Sid back and healthy. Hes been out a long time but it's exciting for the NHL and our fans to have a player like him back #NHL 

Colby Armstrong 

After this Crosby return stuff all media will turn to trying to find out the return of me....right?? It's gonna be crazy. #mediacircus 

Matt Lashoff 

Wasn't expecting any less from 87. So fun to watch. 

Logan Couture 

Saying #87 makes it look easy is an understatement. 

Jordan Eberle 

Hordichuk told me today CBC was supposed to cover his return tonight but then Crosby stole his thunder 

Paul Bissonnette 

Had to drop myself in fantasy hockey today. Welcome back Sidney Crosby. 

Nathan Thompson

What a night for hockey getting the best player in the world back on the ice. #sidthekid 

Luca Caputi

Twitter Time #7 | NHL Twitter Chirps | May 22nd, 2011

A few twitter chirps that went back and forth between some of our fave NHL Tweeters. Nothing much, just to tide us over to tonights game!

[Ryan Whitney - Paul Bissonnette]
And you definitely must check out the link, that is an epic BizNasty pic ... not sure if I should be in awe, overly impressed or maybe disgusted xD

Ryan Whitney
@BizNasty noo...please tell me this is photoshopped. http://t.co/Sf2uXSw

Paul Bissonnette
Ya @RyanWhitney, the nose is a bit. Lol.

[pigeons]

James van Riemsdyk

Can't believe I ran into @ColinWilson walking down the street #pigeon http://yfrog.com/gzkl2zwj  lololol

Hahah, I find this extremely funny. But only because a few days earlier Colby Armstrong got a whole thing pigeon thing going after something a Maple Leafs blogger said on Twitter:

Jeff Veillette

Not to be arrogant @ElizabethLeaf, but I think I'd dangle @armdog pretty easy in a game. #forgetcheddariusemozza

You can find Army's reply to that here, because he deleted it, realising it was a bit overboard. He also apologised to Jeff, but hell, Jeff was totally OK with the whole thing and loved it!

I am expecting plenty of pigeon references for the time to come!

Twitter Time #1 | Hockey Yoga Boys

It is not a secret that a lot of NHL players love to tweet. And of course I follow a bunch of them. Tweeting Leafs & Flyers of course, but some others as well. Last night a fun tweet-convo ensued between Lupul, Ryan Whitney, Colby Armstrong and even BizNasty aka Paul Bissonnette chimed in (and got ignored in the process). I like to see this type of banter ...

OK, it started of with Lups looking for a yoga place and then it became a tweet-taunt lol

Joffrey Lupul Where's the best place in Newport Beach for yoga? Feeling like getting my stretch on..

Joffrey Lupul And absolutely NO Bikram! I did that once last summer and I think I'm still dehydrated. I'm from Canada and I don't do anything over 100 deg

Ryan Whitney I did bikram last night. I'm still in bed.

Joffrey Lupul but I'm in peak physical condition and ur Ryan Un-fit-ney.

Ryan Whitney my grandmother has a stronger back than you
