Dan Welch Pre- Capitals

Now that the season is over it is going to become harder and harder for CttH to do these regular and much anticipated updates. We might just have to start making stuff up or something. I also know for a fact "Iain C" salivates at the mere thought of a Check to the Head update.
If you listen very closely that yucky, moist tongue noise you can just about make out well that's him. SHUT UP IAIN! He's easily impressed you see. As I was saying as the season is over we will be forced to look back at the recently complete campaign for an interesting story to tell.

Soooo.... recently CttH got its hands on a secret picture of twisty, jinky legged, ladies man and puck greedy Dan Welch before he joined the Capitals. Our source has umm asked to remain anonymous. The photo itself was taken approximately seven weeks before joining the team.


The picture that you can see quite clearly on the left is Dan Welch before he got the call to join the Edinburgh Capitals.
It is definitely not the co star of hit US TV sit com 'King of Queens' Paton Oswalt.

After Doug Christiansen found Dan Welch's contact number after a very expensive 118-118 call Dan hit the gym. He chased after chickens, he punched dead cows repeatedly, he ran up mountains, he pissed off Paulie, he was blessed by Father Carmine in Latin, he out sprinted Apollo Creed and was beaten up by Clubba Lang. He also stitched himself up and wore a red bandanna in the Vietnam jungle... No wait, that's not right.

Anyway the muscles from Hastings, MN as he is now called turned things around, his on screen time was also cut back so that allowed him to appear at the rink of dreams every weekend The pay increase also helped!

As this more up to date image proves Paton, Sorry Dan really did do a trick by sticking to his Tyra Bank endorsed 'Eat Healthy Foods' diet. She's so sensible, it's like she has her fingers on the pulse of original thinking. Anyway the fighting spirit and desire to regain his world title from Clubba Lang also helped. He took on the wrecking machine that was flab and taught it a bitch-ass lesson. Mickey would be so proud.

That's why us here at Check to the Head also fully back the Total Gym, endorsed by Chuck Norris & Christie Brinkley, it is the best home gym on the market. With over 80 exercises it's like having an entire gym full of fitness equipment in just ONE machine.

If it's good enough for Dan, it's good enough for you!

5 Players We Should Have Signed

It is update time once more, can I get a yeehaa?

So here it is five players we SHOULD have signed (all real) for no other reason that their high quality, high humour, high brilliance names :)

Dustin McCrank - C'mon imagine having a guy called Dustin McCranck in your team (pictured above) That's right Dustin McCrank! He exists, it's a real person with a real name. Would other fans laugh? Quite probably, would we laugh? Absolutely! Would he be rubbish? More than likely. Mr McCrank for the Caps Awoooga!

BJ Gaylord - OK, OK If your surname was Gaylord, which is very funny in itself why oh why would your parents give you fore names with the initials B.J? Im sure you probably think we have made this guy up but go on hockeydb him, he's there. He really is.

Robin Big Snake - It would be simply fantastic if the Capitals could ice McCranck, Big Snake and Gaylord all at the same time. What would the Caps TV commentary be like? Would they be able to broadcast before 9pm? Maybe it would go something like this, just setting the scene here.

It is in over-time of course and....

" Dustin McCranck sets things up for Gaylord, who quickly finishes it off after a nice one, two with Big Snake in the high slot "

Or something like that.... What, What?

Willi Winkes - Nope, we didn't make this one up either. OK we will admit that he's not a well known player or even still alive, maybe he is maybe he's not you can do the research into it. He was though a coach with Frankfurt in the German Oberliga during the 80's.
Is it just me or is their a theme to all these names so far?

Bear Trapp - Just a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant name and he would probably be half decent in the EIHL. If Neil Hay can get a game then Mr Bear Trapp deserve a spot on the Capitals roster purely based on the awesomeness of his name. I'd sponsor that jersey for shizzle...

Taylor Christie's Favourite Colours

It is well known that Check to the Head always report the facts*


So continuing on with that tradition and after an extensive & in depth investigation which saw us drink much coffee and pop many a pro plus we here at CttH Towers are at last after several very long months very proud - in fact we feel great pride - to present the results of the question that was on the tip of every Caps fans lips towards the end of last season.

What are Taylor Christie's top five favourite colours?


So the below high definition or 'HD' if you prefer graphic displays the much sought after answers. We hadn't heard of any of them so a massive thanks goes out to Dulux for their fantastic yet very informative descriptions of Taylor Christie's favourite colours.






Check to the Head hopes you appreciate our efforts in bringing you all the answers. A comment or two or even pimping the blog to your friends would help you know, well every little helps


*We know that is lies, we never report the facts

Where's Willy

Somewhere in the picture below Mr Willy Dunn is hiding. WHERE ARE YOU MR DUNN?

So can you do what no member of the Capitals organisation, whether it be management, player or helpful volunteer has done this year and find Willy Dunn? Just where is Willy Dunn?

P.S For an extra special bonus and brownie points with us here at CttH towers can you find the original big bag of Capitals legacy Jerseys that Willy has sneakily hid and kept away from the Caps fans too.... What a cheeky scamp he is!

Don't worry if you can't find him, we'll think of an excuse as to why you can't find Mr Dunn or the Legacy tops and will inform each of you individually through email.
