Hey peef, maybe you'll enjoy this...

Rumor is circulating around my group of old hockey friends that the one time we organized a community ice hockey game... one of the attendees was Shayne Gostibehere. Here's a picture... dated 2008...

He's the one on the white side under the guy wearing the C for their team. We didn't actually know him, he was an invite of one of my friends. We were all like 15 at the time... I remember not being able to keep up with him so I cross-checked him on his way into the offensive zone ahahahahhaha. I'm the one in the all-black in the middle on my knee without the helmet.

I cross-checked Shayne Gostibehere when he was 15!! ahahahahahaha.

I once goaded James Sheppard into two-hand slashing me in the ankle and drawing a penalty. We scored on the PP and won the game.(this guy)

I also played road hockey once with Sidney Crosby when I was 10. He's my stepsiblings' cousin on their mother's side and he and his parents came over for some dinner/bbq thing. We all played street hockey together and he was a little shithead who never passed the ball and bragged about how much better he was than anybody and how he was going to be a millionaire in the NHL some day.

Also, I once took a piss at the urinal next to Scotty Bowman.

I think that's all my interesting NHLer stories.

EDIT: I do have another Sidney Crosby story, but that's just one of him being a general dick.

LuckyNumber7 · 04-13-2016, 06:29 PM

Not all of us in America are related to Sidney Crosby, Dave!

Haha, I kid.

DaveC · 04-13-2016, 06:38 PM

You kid?

Like, all Americans really are related to Sidney Crosby?

Great story. And I completely believe that cross-checking Shayne was both the only play you could make on him and a very realistic thing to do. Even now he doesn't look like he weighs that much more than I do.

Rangers in the finals?? I can't see them getting out of the first round unless Flower gets concussed again.

I fully expect the Flyers to give Washington a great series, and if they do manage to advance, to get absolutely blown away by Pittsburgh.

Wait, what?

You mean even then?

I see Pittsburgh collapsing again, so I get the Rangers upset. But I don't see the Rangers going farther than that.

If the Caps fail so hard as to lose to the Flyers in 6, I... Actually, I don't have the slightest idea what those poor fans would do. That would be heartbreaking.

The only team I think we'll beat in a 7 game series is the Blues and that's because they're known choke artists. I don't see us getting swept by anyone though. The only series we've lost in three seasons was in a game 7 off a deflected shot in OT. This is a seasoned, talented team... That's been absolutely mediocre since February.

i haven't watched enough hockey this year to really know, and i had to get my money pool picks in before 7:00. i haven't had any success in the years i really have paid attention, so i went on gut feeling. might as well.

the girl sitting right behind the tampa bay bench is reeeeeally cute

Something about how Canadians are all related to Alex Trebek in some way shape or form, I think.

DaveC · 04-13-2016, 08:00 PM
