Ouch...... I paid $550.00 for my most prized possesion. An autographed Home White # 11 Mark Messier New York Rangers jersey. I have never worn it. I have it mounted inside a custom made display case. It is inside of my secret alter of the Church of Messier.

                                                          Here is the Captain's Prayer

                                                        Our Captain, who art in the Garden
                                                        Elbows be thy Game
                                                        Thy victory has come, the Cup was won
                                                        In New York as it was in Edmonton

                                                        Give us this day your steely glare
                                                        and forgive us our highsticking as we spear them
                                                        and lead us not into the penalty box
                                                        but to deliver to the cup
                                                        for thine is of the Conn Smythe and Hart trophy forever
                                                         
                                                          Amen
 
Going to join the pool, Nigel?


Wasted, I'm sorry to hear about Johnson, that's going to hurt the Blues's chances this year.  Golf's an evil game.
 
Crap, I haven't read anything in the last few days.

(Wasted runs off to read NHL news)
Dear god, he got his foot stuck between the accelerator and the brake, and tore two knee ligaments.  That is just stupid.
 
I 'm sorry mates but I think I don't have the time these days to be able to commit to a fantasy league. I have a good day if I can play a full game of NHL on PS2 without being interrupted by my wife, kids or somebody at work that needs to know how to do something.  :mad:
 
So this sucks. Gonchar is undergoing shoulder surgery and will be out 4-6 months, ON TOP OF Whitney being out 3-5 months becaue of foot surgery.


On other cool news, Vancouver named Luongo Captain. I thought Goalies couldn't be captains and I can't find out how he became one because I'm at work and the fucking story is in video interview form! Whatever happened to old-fashion WRITTEN articles!?
 
So, Saturday, right?  Game on!  Watch out, the Blues mite blow, but my fantasy team is gonna make up for it!!!
 
Well, Luongo, basically he's captain, but he can't wear the C and run up and down the ice.  So Willie Mitchell does all the captain stuff.
 
Yay for Luongo!

GOALIE POWER! GOALIE POWER! GOALIE POWER!




In all seriousness, I was oft named captain of my house league hockey teams, because I was the only one who gave 100%.  Or yelled at people.
 
And you played goalie? That's cool :D

There was a normal article on it today and yeah, he can be Captain, but can't handle ceremonial stuff (Ohlund will do that) or talk to officials (Mitchell will do that).
 
I will be suprised if my Bluseshirts will be in this year, with no Jagr or Sean Avery. I guess Gomez better step it up a notch.
