Is there a fund where we can adopt such an adorable junior reporter? Seriously, when he makes that serious face at the camera we were done for. We want him as our adopted son. Move aside Matt Duchene, we have a new golden son to dote on.
This was from Grace.
Not only is Claude Giroux a man above all men in Philadelphia and takes one in the jubilees to score a goal but he goes and talks about it in a post-game interview. When can we get married to him?

And the awkwardness never ends with Milan Lucic. Did anyone else find it hilariously funny how he is just frenetically talking at the end, like he's finally worked up about this email and he is just upset beyond repair? Does that make us bad people because we did?

We were forced to put this in because Henrik has watched it about a dozen times.

Now that the fun is over, here is the news for the week so far.
- Carey Price is motivated by his poor play and the way that he was perceived last season. That is why he is doing so well. And shockingly, he also leads all goalies in All Star voting even though he is a write-in.
It is stunning what Habs fans can accomplish when they're not destroying couches.
- In "Oh good, cause we were worried" news, Marc Staal will not be punished for his hit on Matt Stajan.
- And in "Oh no they didn't" news, Ilya Kovalchuk and Alex Ovechkin were spotted hamming it up together after the Capitals lost 5-0 to the Devils. It's a huge, giant controversy now because apparently friends aren't allowed to say hi to each other and laugh at something without every person claiming that they don't care about the game. News flash: Not every player is Sidney Crosby who whips himself when he doesn't score a point in a game. /end rant.
And PS about that: "Whether this incident simply blows over or becomes a big deal remains to be seen, but Washington media were openly wondering whether the team's captain should have put himself in a situation where people question his leadership and dedication."
We've been saying that since he was named Captain.
- On the injury front:
Kyle Turris, the little man who could, was placed in IR by the Coyotes then they recalled Oliver Ekman-Larsson.
Guillaume Latendresse will undergo two surgeries to repair a torn labrum and a sports hernia so he will be out for an extended time.
Marc Savard has been cleared for full contact practice.
We know he's excited.

OMG Hawks Junior Reporter. My favorite is when he calls them "not very nice" for calling their teammate a turkey. :) Duchene is still a keeper in the golden son department, but this kid needs to straight up be put to WORK. Make him get cracking on HJ content. Do it!
The Lucic interview is hysterical and no, you're not bad to think his blathering to the fade out is even funnier. Bitch needs to clutch a pillow on Oprah or Dr. Phil. And don't forget he pretty much admits that he can't be trusted in his own relationship. Awesome!
Finally, I agree completely that O-Felch, in particular, sometimes gets the raw end of the deal because he has a sense of humor and likes to have fun. There are plenty of legitimate reasons for him to piss people off, but I don't think it's fair to pick a fight with him because of his flamboyant demeanor. Even if flamboyant appears to be morphing into flippant, sometimes that's how people cope with pressure. After all, even a jackass sometimes deserves the benefit of the doubt. He takes his role as captain very seriously. He's just not as well-equipped to handle the responsibility as he might think. And that doesn't have anything to do with him having a laugh with an ex-teammate after the game.
Joey Junior Reporter is so fricking cute my ovaries almost burst. After watching that you can kinda tell which BHawks players will be the better Dads.
@MouthGuard Haha. So glad I'm not the only one that caught Looch basiclly admitting his untrutworthiness. That was excellent!

This just in...Colin Campbell believes Marc Savard is faking his enthusiasm.
Again...so much to comment on...
FIRST OFF--Shanny, that is fucking ON POINT! hahahahaha
Yes, hockey players and kids again, melting of the heart ensuing. I call Turco Papa Marty because it's so cute to see the way he takes care of the younger players (when Crawford *almost* shut out the Canucks, he mobbed him on the ice and gave him a big bear hug) but he has 4 kids so that's no surprise...the BIG surprise is Taser. Good with kids! Great with kids, even! Maybe because there's only, what...17 years between him and the Junior Reporter? I can't believe that kid knew all the player numbers...I'm just getting them straight. But then again he's had less Jack Daniels in his life. I'm assuming.
Milan--yes, pretty much telling the world (and all potential girlfriends since his current one has a big question mark over her head) that he's untrustworthy. FAN-TASTIC. So a case of "Dude, just STOP TALKING..." Methinks the left winger doth protest too much.
What is it about seeing Sean Avery's throat that makes my elbow reflexively propel itself towards the screen? I couldn't help but do this as each guy was shown..."Boy...boy...douche...boy...boy....MAN...." Oh good god Henrik. Good effing god.
Giroux's candor notwithstanding...tho' it's amazing he was standing afterwards--altho' he was basically saying Pronger wanted to hit him in the nuts. I can see it.
And the whole Ovie/Ilya thang--I get that it's somehow 'distressing' that they weren't exhibiting the proper gravity towards the situation...but maybe they realized it was JUST A GAME and they were CLEARLY OUTPLAYED and they're MOVING FORWARD. It's not like they were roasting babies in the hot tub.
Laptop freakout at the Starbucks!
