Prepare the giant masthead jokes, as Mile High Hockey has added on four new writers today, all of whom should be familiar to even casual MHH readers. Effective immediately, seancolorado, SteveHouse, Randy Time and Cole D Hamilton will be writing for this fine blog (and I would like to point out that none of them are chicks, thankyouverymuch).
Please join me in welcoming all these fine gentlemen into the fold. And please, gentle hazing only.

Congrats everyone!
There better be at least one chart with each and every one of your articles, Steve.
"I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant; it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are." - Mewtwo
I once trolled a guy with a line graph showing the location of his pelvis relative to charts. It went back and forth between “in” and “out”.
didn’t realize that would turn into a self-portrait >_>
At exactly what point do you start to realize that life without knowledge is death in disguise?

If you are going to troll me, and make it awesome, do so with graphs.

That officially makes 3 normal users and 354 staff writers?

Also, it’s fair to judge their final grades based solely on 2 months work right? Sucks for them.

Hey now, didn’t you grade me like 2 days after I got promoted? Sure it was easier because I have Cupcakes and that’s an automatic A-, but 2 months is a LONG time in comparison to that!

I saw that you wrote this in English but my alcohol consumption has led me to read this as “No boobs = C or lower” I could be wrong, I only say that because I am about 90% of the time. I feel pretty strongly about this and probably will until I sober up.

If anybody is interested, this is where I first started hockey. Scroll down to the photo that says ‘Beijing All-Star Squirts’ underneath. I’d say “Guess which one is me!” but since none of you know what I look like I’ll just tell you: standing row, farthest to the right (readers’ right).

Haha great to see MHH picked up a few people I don’t get in arguments with all the time. =)
Who?
Is there a test? Or are you just out-sourcing to Asia? Question one: Where was MHH before SB nation? p.s. Congratulations, looking forward to some real insight, for once!
Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?
MHH was always just SBN. It was the second hockey blog to join it, actually. The folks of SBN approached Joe, who had been running his own blog Dear Lord Stanley. Joe then asked DDC to help out, who had his own blog as well called In the Cheap Seats under the name Draft Dodger. (Hence he’s often just called DD.) Mike blogged for Bleu, Blanc et Rouge and was also in on this gig since the beginning.
When hell freezes over, I'll play hockey there, too.
