He’d fit right in.

I liked Jokinen when he was here... but he is currently on his back looking up at the wall that he recently hit.

Christmas Story that went over everyone’s head

I got it. I was going with when he fell over on the way to school and yelled out because he couldn't get up wearing the snowsuit. If I had gone with something like 'He couldn't put his arms down" it would have been clearer, but not relevant to the laying on the ice.

It is clear you and I are the intellectual superiors round here, Jim.

I thought Jussi was good when he was here. Our current style of "GO GO GO GO GO" and his cement feet are not a match made in heaven.

He’s no Le Car, by he can skate well enough.

TK is trying to set up some training program at the South Park rink. I learned to skate there.

I’m sure it’s still a total dump.

More ex-NHLers should do this. I helped Mike Rupp one summer run a bunch of these in the Erie area and the turnout was insane.

Kid Rock is the musical act for the ASG.

Two minutes into his interview, he's already babbling about Sid being a crybaby.

"Who do I not like? I'm gonna have to say because my fiance always ripping on uhhh, Sidney Crosby, calling him a crybaby. I have no beef with him, he's a great player but since she's always riding his tail, I'm gonna get down on him."

There ya go, NHL. Way to promote the stars of the league.

I’m assuming that he likes to pretend that he’s Ginavi Smith.

A few years ago, NHL landed Drake as the musical act for the ASG. I really thought they turned a corner.

at least they haven't invited Def Leppard back

Actually, it is in fact no longer a dump:

So dumb. Why would they go with Caps instead of Capitals?

Postby **MR25** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 10:48 am

Because they're ALL CAPS

Postby **nocera** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 10:48 am

Even dumber: why would you make the marketing slogan "ALL CAPS" when the jersey is all lower case caps?

Why go for a wordmark when your primary jerseys already have a terrible wordmark on them? Why not use this opportunity to actually have a logo crest?

Jussi to Columbus

So that their fans have a better chance of spelling it correctly...
