The Secret Life Of...
Simon Lambert / Edinburgh Capitals
Not many people know that Simon Lambert BSc, FRCS, FRCS Ed Orth has Special clinical interests in reconstruction and joint replacement, Arthroscopy of the shoulder and fracture reconstruction. He loves a good proximal humerus fracture, it's true. You all thought the Capitals signed him for his Hobey Baker Award nomination and lightning quick feet, well think again. We signed him for his god given healing, talented hands. Mr Lambert trained in shoulder and reconstructive surgery on the North West Thames orthopaedic rotation, complementing this with two Fellowships in Switzerland studying shoulder and trauma surgery. ( very clever guy is Simon )
Also lots of people simply don't know that Lambert's practice at Spire Bushey Hospital deals solely with problems of the shoulder and elbow, from sports-related injuries. Martin Cingel would be out for the season if it wasn't for Simon Lambert's shoulder expertise.
Thank you Simon!
So there you go the secret life of Simon Lambert revealed....hard hitting facts presented by CttH

Scott Neil - "Look a likey" ... well almost
We couldn't find a good quality picture of the Caps main gringo Señor Neil so in true Check To The Head styleeee we improvised. Hell we improvised, we decided to use the next best thing to a picture of Scott Neil. That of course being someone completely different from an entirely different part of the world but with the exact same name as Scott Neil... so see what we did there?
The results are truly outstanding! Just look at who "Scott Neil" looks like. It is an A list umm list of famous faces. Mike Myers keeps the hockey connection going. Shawn 'Once of the rockers' Michaels ( We miss Marty Janety ) is there as is Ricky ' I'm not gay' Martin and best of all Woop, Woop, Yeeeha and Awoooga none other than MR FRED SAVAGE, what a guy!
You have to admit you would all love to have a list like this surrounding your face.
You want to be the new Harry Connick Jnr, you want to be Ashton Kutcher and be able to star in fantastic movies such as ' Dude, Where is my car? ' and be able to 'nob up' an older woman.
P.s We use the term fantastic movies loosely...

Facebook Group You Should Join
Check To The Head proudly presents: Facebook Groups You Should Join:
Now have a look at this bad boy, the simple fact that a Nottingham fan created this group has nothing to do with why you should join this Facebook group:
Now have a look at this bad boy, the simple fact that a Nottingham fan created this group has nothing to do with why you should join this Facebook group:
We here based a Check to the Head towers dislike the Steelers for obvious reasons, well not quite obvious. We don't care about all their goon antics or slashes or hooks or spears or for their stinking grey jerseys that they used to have. We hate them because a few seasons ago down at the playoff finals we handed a free issue of CttH to Mr David Simms - I repeat a FREE issue -and he promptly passed it off to one of his "entourage". Now that is disrespect sir in anyones book. D I S R E S P E C T. So for that fact alone we are promoting this group.
I sure as hell hope to see an increase in the number of members by a good two or three in the coming months.

O-O-Owen Fussey
Just a quickie now (that's what she said )
So when I woke up this morning my head was full of Owen Fussey songs.
Muse had well and truely bitch slapped me in the face and the ideas were free flowing.
It was almost as if I was a part of the Stock, Aitken & Waterman 80s super song writing team. Now, just like S.A.W I am not claiming that these ideas for songs are any good and also just like Stock, Aitken & Waterman I simply don't care. I wan't to share them with the three or so people that actually read this thing.
So here they are in no particular order at all all two of them:
To the tune of Cyndi Lauper - Money Changes Everything
Fussey changes everything
Owen Fussey changes everything
ye' think ye know what he's doin'
That don't mean a thing
Coz he's past you now
Fussey changes everything
And to Abba - Money, Money, Money
Fussey, Fussey, Fussey
He's in a hurry
Many pucks he's hurled
Fusey, Fussey, Fussey
Always sunny
In the Ca-aps world
Aye, well. Like I said I don't care what you think. No.. YOU suck!

Strong Caps Rumours
BREAKING CAPITALS NEWS
Their is a strong rumour emerging from Murrayfield tonight that the young British players simply can not get enough of Pokemon. ' Gotta catch them all ' Despite being a decade or so late the young wiper snappers and ankle biters at the club regularly swap cards and join up to play a 'game boy' connect game. It is being reported they battle it out and test their Pokemon trainer skills often. I personally don't see it as a bad thing as it is quite clearly a group bonding session and certainly can not harm their on ice chemistry. Well once they all get on the ice at the same time.
Anyway and probably most shockingly of all an inside source at the club - not the giant American play caller - has informed us here at Check to the Head towers that fans favourite and cheeky imp Jordan Steel's favourite monster in his pocket is none other than musical mistero 'Jigglypuff'
We caught up with a Jigglypuff tonight and this was it's response to the news
See even Jigglypuff's know they suck! Quite clearly Onyx is where it's at!
As of 9.50pm Mark Paterson's and Dean Hollan'd preferences were still 'unconfirmed'

Miracle on Toast!
I LOVE THE SMELL OF BREAD IN THE MORNING
and so does Doug Christiansen!
Doug Christiansen's face in miniature form on a piece of lovely toast (not hand made by Scotland's #1 Breadspert Diego ) This triangular slice of flour produced genius is now on show at the Murrayfield Museum Of Hockey Based Delights and Oddities or the MMHBDO for short!Of course the likeness is open for discuss and in depth debate, I for one am not truly convinced by the miracle on toast for a start their is no red tie and when have you ever seen DC without a red tie on?! Exactly my point well made.
Good Evening!

Two updates in the one day, impressive eh?
Anyway I thought I would go back to an old favourite of ours at CttH. Of course its the celebrity lookalike generator machine from bebo! Can I get a woop woop? ( Thanks Diego ) He loves a good woop woop opportunity!
So lets get to it; this time I chose to match up Edinburgh Capitals mega flop Michel ' Miguel Rodriguez ' Robinson. So who exactly does the sloppy goalie who the Panthers fans love to bits look like from the world of A-Z list celebrity. Well the answers are:
Umm, ok so he looks like that guy from Godzilla and Japanese baseballer who has some speed and some Italian director, surprisingly none of them are French Canadian or Hispanic....
Hmmm. Anyway I'm not really sure what this proves but it is slightly entertaining. I think their might be some more of this over the next few weeks... or not!
WTF? An Update Sharp vs Pizza
So I have decided to start doing this stuff again, well for now.
I'm at work just now and I'm having as much fun as Andrew Sharp did in his recent "fight" with Mr Bergin of Nottingham Panthers fame. One thing is for sure my cold ridden nose is just as bright red as Sharp's was last week (3.1.10) after taking a sweet right hook slap bang on the nose. The main difference being my red beak hasn't knocked me to my knees.
Sharp posed his way through the early part of the skirmish. He was standing on the ice swinging his arms and fists in the fashion of an 1800's proper gentleman boxer all he was missing was the waxed handle bar moustache and the upper class London accent. The fight itself was over in a matter of seconds as Sharp posed Bergin chucked hurt bombs with the intent of hurting Sharp's sense of well being. Sharp took one on the face which left him visibly shaken, as per norm the Caps 'enforcer' offered very little in response, he chose to clutch and grab over throwing punches of his own. He clearly lost yet another scrap.
Now at the start of the 09/10 season Doug Christiansen promised Sharp would win us all over with his attitude to the game. Well here at CttH towers we are still waiting to be won over, we're still waiting to be even the slightest bit impressed. We're left to think that the money being spent on Sharp would be better off spent on providing pizzas for the young british guys for the long bus journeys they have to make almost every weekend.
I think it's a fair swap at least a nice warm pizza would do some good for our team. It certainly would bring a smile to the cheeky, cheeky face of Jordan Steel and it might just tickle the ribs of Mark ' the postman ' Paterson, never a bad thing. In our book that more than makes Pizza the better deal.
So there you have it, I think CTTH has just proven without a doubt that a pizza has more value to the Capitals than Andrew Sharp. Sad but true!
