Thanks, dude!

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

There are compensations - but those women do give up a lot to marry hockey players.

 

[Board Bard]

I really got the feeling they told all. No more questions.

No kidding. After watching that video I won't be so quick to yell "trade the bum!" from the stands when one of our guys screws up...

Betcha will.

I think I heard that from someone in 305 last night. Trying to remember who it was for. Was that you?

 

[Trinity]

Buff's wife seems pretty cool.

 

[Duke749]

My girlfriend thinks I’m married to hockey as once the season starts I spend more time with it then her.

 

[jefferoni]

Betcha will.

Nope. I was on my couch... but I may have yelled it loud enough for you to still hear me! Damn Frenchie!!!

Emily Byfuglien’s comments about this being “our” year, both her team and Jets, might give a hint Buff is returning

Right? Right?

Right? Right?

Absolutely!

And at the 3:13 mark she says "when he retires one day"... I'm pretty sure she means "when he retires one day far in the future"...

Then at the 3:29 mark she says "when Dustin retires I'll probably want to go back to work just because the kids will be older and in school"...

So yeah, Big Buff is definitely coming back!!!

I think this was filmed prior to last season, no?

I think this was filmed prior to last season, no?

I would guess during the last season (2018-19) according to a few of the credits.

 

[PegCityJets9]

I actually ref'd them when the cameras were set up. Even made it in the video, so that's pretty fun!

 

[Afterburner]

I watched Hockey Wives a few times when it was on TV and the stuff that the wives and families of hockey players go through and deal with really made me see them all in a new light.

 

[Skidooboy]

Wow this is incredible.......no wait. it's the other thing....stupid. yep that's it stupid.

I could give zero craps about what a hockey players wife thinks about...pretty much anything. sure if she was a chemist or something I might be interested in what she has to say about chemistry or whatever....But I really couldn't give a half a bucket of sloths about her day to day trials and tribulations.

So you weren't fascinated with Kulikov's wife's cookie business that loses money??!! lol

It was Hutchinson's wife actually ... and it sounds like her cake business is successful...

Kuli's wife works at the jewelry store and she does indeed end up losing money after paying for someone to look after her kids while she's at work...

 

[Trinity]

I read an interesting article a while ago that the majority of NHL players get divorced after their playing career is over. The reasons are that they are home too much and get on their wives nerves after being on the road so much, the money dries up, and the fame and excitement of being an NHL player is gone.

 

[Trinity]

It was Hutchinson's wife actually...

Same difference! lol

and I'm pretty sure that business is doing well.

Some people man.

Okay it was Kuli's wife's business. I got them all mixed up!

It was in and around around March of 2019.

 

[Jets 31]

I wonder if Frenchie's wife takes alot of dumb penalties too .

So you don't care, yet take the time to come on here to say you don't care. You must be real bored to waste time on things you don't care about.
