1-2-3 Hockey: 36 of 45
It was a lazy, cozy rainy (but awfully muggy) night here at stately Maple Hoo (after a day that was finally rainy from morning ’til night!), so we had a lazy photo challenge. Here, Favre naps on my bed in the glow of the funky lamp I picked up on a photo jaunt to Asbury Park. — Pk.

Eh, Crunchy just passed because Farve is too small to fit into any of the clothes from the Hipster Emporium.
:^:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Yeah, probably. Although Favre might fit into the women’s sizes…
Okay, there is way WAY too much Dion Phaneuf on this Leafs TV feed I’m watching.
That’s unpossible, Kathleen, there’s no such thing as too much Dion Phaneuf, he’s the Face Of A Franchise (R).
Henrik is very pretty. Makes me miss his brother, Joel, very pretty.2.
Makes me miss his brother, Joel
I’m jealous that you have a positive memory to hang on the Lundqvist handsome. Because for me, it’s like “Oooh! Handsome! ARRRRGH! CAN’T FUCKING BEAT THE FUCKING RANGERS!” It’s a terrible waste, I tells ya.
Joel is a Swedish name? The funk?
Yeah. I hadn’t thought about that. When I see Henrik, I think Joel. Who was an absolute sweetheart and in my opinion even more gorgeous than his brother.
The whole Ranger thing really does make it in deed a terrible waste.
Joel is a Swedish name? The funk?
That always struck me as odd.
And as for how wasted the Prawn is in New York, I periodically enjoy reading the pulling-out-their-hair-and-wailing-to-the-hockey-gods miserable posts on Rangers blogs after particularly disheartening (for them) losses. And sometimes they’ll suggest that Prawn should be set free and moved to a different team where he can find the success he (supposedly) deserves. I think that would be the best solution for everyone. :P
I think Lundqvist has to be that hot to make up for all the grosstitude of the rest of that franchise. If he weren’t that pretty, the balance would be so far to the eeeeeevil side, that the Rangers would create a black hole of disgustingness.

I think you are absolutely right.
I’m with Myra on the Joel being hotter opinion. But it still leaves plenty of room to think Henrik is very hot.
Also, why does Henrik sound so Canadian?
Both of those guys went from incomprehensible Swedish accents their first years to perfect (and in Joel’s case, faintly Texas-accented) English. Very impressive.
Now I’m starting to miss Joel.
“Oooh! Handsome! ARRRRGH! CAN’T FUCKING BEAT THE FUCKING RANGERS!”

I was just thinking that it was time to request some Favre pictures. I don’t want the other kitties to be jealous, but I just love Favre!
“Oooh! Handsome! ARRRRGH! CAN’T FUCKING BEAT THE FUCKING RANGERS!”
And the Rangers upped their handsome quotient in goal by adding Marty Biron. His eyes are killer. I just can’t remember if he’s a Devil-killer or not, so I’m not sure if that’s helping or hurting my argument, LOL.
I just can’t remember if he’s a Devil-killer or not
Heh heh heh. No he is not. The Devils scored literally 20% of their entire year’s output against him the first season he was a Flyer. I was sorry to see him go. I had a brief flicker of “that’s gonna be AWESOME!” when I heard he’d signed with the Rangers, but then I returned to reality and remembered that there’s NO WAY IN HELL that Prawn gives up any of his starts against us. (I also have to admit that Biron’s not really even within shouting range of my “handsome” list, but hey, that’s what makes a horse race, as Boomer likes to say. :D)

Hee! He doesn’t often sit still long enough to be photographed. On a good day, he’s just willful. Lately he’s spiraled out of control to naughty and/or chompy. He’s a monster!
I just can’t remember if he’s a Devil-killer or not
LOL quite the opposite!
Cats always have those moments where they go bat shit insane, don’t they?
My cat never goes bat shit insane. He just lays there like a lump. I once provoked him into being bitey, and even then he was lazy. I’ve never seen a mouth move more slowly.

:^::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: That’s how little baby angel Favre used to be, but lately he’s developed the lightning-fast reflexes of a cobra. Watch out — your benign little fluffy lump of a cat may be next! :P

One of the reasons Marty gave for signing with the Rangers was that they promised him 20 or so starts per year. When I heard that, I immediately said “does Prawn know about that?”

:^:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Yeah, I can’t see Prawn being too thrilled about that. Also, I can’t see actually thinking Rangers management has any idea what it’s talking about, so I should think it’s all on Biron for believing them. :P
Maybe they finally noticed that Hank plays like shit at the end of the season* every year, without fail?
*Except when he plays against the Devils

Pish posh! There’s no WAY Rangers management is clued-in enough to have noticed that! :P
They DID catch on to the fact that Wade Redden is a big pile of poo that they keep on a pedestal made of money, so maybe they’re starting to learn.
That’s true Schnookie, I think Sather makes his decisions using a Magic 8 ball.

Claude runs around like a maniac, sometimes for an hour and then suddenly, he stops, circles for a minute, lies down and falls asleep, just like that. One of my friends saw him do it and said, “He’s a wind-up toy who, well, unwound!”

*Except when he plays against the Devils
He played like shit at the end his first year. Since then, he starts out great, sucks in the middle and finishes well. He’s also been playing more and more games every year. I suspect he thinks Marty wins Vezinas because he plays 75+ games a season and so I believe Hank is going to play 82 until he wins one. NJ’s back-up goalie will see 20 before NYR’s, and we know that’s not happening, either, unless Marty injures the other arm.

There will be no return of Mottau, at least to NJ. He’s an Islander. I’d like to thank Garth Snow for signing him, since it means he will not be standing like a pylon in a NJ uniform this year.
I only have a second, but am I going to recognize any Devils players anymore?
He’s an Islander
And on the day that the Islanders sign Mottau, they lose Okposo for awhile.
Dipietro’s back-up will be so angry with the amount of deflected pucks Mottau puts in their net.
Wait, what happened to Okposo?! He’s a Peepsoxer! I had high hopes for him!

Shoulder injury. Apparently the Isles won’t say how it happened. I wonder if he is somehow has a psychic connection to Streit and when Streit’s shoulder went, Okposo’s shoulder did as well.
I have Ospogo stick too! Dammit!
alix, I don’t think Okposo is attractive enough for the Hanky Pankys.
Haha! Good point, mcguffers. Bishes be pretty on my team or they’re injured.
Well and then there’s Tuuka Rask…but his stats make him pretty.
Tuuka Rask also has the best goaltending name in the league. He could easily be a bounty hunter or a Star Wars villian.
