One of the league's dirtier players, relegated to sheltered minutes on the Rangers wins a leadership award...? That's almost too perfect to be real...

Didn't see that coming...

Luckily Necas did, though.

I think this is the correct choice considering Messier also used to lead with his elbow.

Chicago...

A Native American woman who worked for the Chicago Blackhawks is suing the organization and its charity, the Chicago Blackhawks Foundation—accusing them of breach of oral contract, fraud and sexual harassment.

Nina Sanders filed the lawsuit Tuesday night in the Circuit Court of Cook County. In an exclusive interview with CBS Chicago, she said she was brought on to build relationships between the team and the Native American community. But instead, she said she was pushed out.

And it looks like the logo will be a lobster, in sunglasses, with a hockey stick. Amazing. If the other end of that hockey stick is a guitar, I'll order a jersey tomorrow.

****. It was a figure of speech. I'll order a jersey tomorrow... I'll eat my hat... You know, people say that.

no no no no no no. YOU said you'd buy one

Post by **JC2** » Wed May 15, 2024 4:56 pm

What figure of speech is that?

I don't think I'm versed in, "if the other end of that hockey stick is a guitar..." Is it an Albany expression?
