[LegionOfDoom91]

Haha.

 

[Stizzle]

10/10

 

[kudymen]

Score a goal.

Ideally one goal for every captain's joke in the opening post

 

[Magua]

You are one of a kind, Cap'n. One of a kind.

Especially enjoyed The Fugitive theme and the revelation that benny is Dom DeLuise.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I don't know why Dom DeLuise is perfect, but he really is.

 

[freakydallas13]

The GDT is good. The Flyers are not.

C'est la vie.

 

[BillDineen]

This is my favorite one yet. Great work Cap'n!

 

[dats81]

Crazy shit going on this GDT. Love it!

 

[Zod]

The trench run killed me.

 

[Frickley]

So good

 

[Chinatown88]

I was bouncing between declaring Cap'n mental or brilliant. Clearly this is the work of a creative genius.

 

[dingbathero]

Needed this. Thanks.

 

[bennysflyers16]

My god , I look like Dom Deloise !!!!

 

[Striiker]

 

[Tripod]

This is excellent. Will most likely be the hilight of the game itself.

 

[Rebels57]

Bravo Cap! Another masterpiece lol

Im gonna probably skip the game so as to not ruin the memory of this GDT

 

[boxcar65]

Capt, thank you for not making fun of Mandog. I look forward to yet another stellar game from everyone’s favorite whipping boy

 

[BernieParent]

If there was some way that we could meld MSE and the Captain's GDT genius, truly we would have an oeuvre that had the chance to cure this world of all its ills. It would be like the Encyclopedia Psychotica in its depth, breadth, and delicious inanity.

 

[bennysflyers16]

"I knew you wouldn't shoot"

Lord above I hope Jake sees this !!!

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Holy f***ing shit this GDT . Goddamn.

Don't worry, the Jets are on a hot streak and we'll be shut out again .

 

[SnS]

I can't stop laughing. Well done captain.

 

[Hiesenberg]

I think the Flyers and I need a break.

 

[TheKingPin]

Good stuff!


This game is going to be a druming. They are going to turn our goalies into scrubs. We are going to see Haks blank stare a lot.

As someone else said our best shot is one those ‘how the hell did we shut them out’ games.

 

[antiqueslivers]

aah I love you philly! City that values Winnipeg/Manitoban Athletes!
