I’ll try to do the fountain of youth for Calgary tomorrow during my lunch break. I need my computer as I use Photoshop to resize & keep them in proportion to each other.

Now that the Hockey business is out of the way, some humour to give you fine folks a chuckle to start your day. Hopefully with a Habs win to end it with a smile.

A Touching Elephant Story

In 1986, Mkele Mbembe was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University. On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Mbembe approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Mbembe worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Mbembe stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Mbembe never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.

Twenty years later, Mbembe was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Mbembe and his son Tapu were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Mbembe, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. Remembering the encounter in 1986, Mbembe couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant. Mbembe summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Mbembe's legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.

Probably wasn't the same elephant.

[The Great Weal]

Imagine being told you are a healthy scratch in favour of the corpse of Staal who gets a minus every time he steps on the ice and just blatantly doesn't care.

 

[Bouboumaster]

Win plz

 

[Archijerej]

Very nice GDT. Some much needed youthful exuberance in the lineup tonight .

Won't be getting up at night to see this one. I've already made up my mind about this team and I'm not that young anymore to deprive myself of sleep so regularly.

Easy Habs win, 4-1.

Habs to go on to win 6 of their next 7 games.

It’s an early game in the Eastern time zone. You must be living in a location with a much later game time.

I imagine this guy must be hiding away again:

MB winning a trade. Business as usual.

A Maestro among mortals. General managing prodigy.

 

[BenchBrawl]

I imagine this guy must be hiding away again:

Still here supporting the Maestro.

I’d rather Evans over Staal, Armia, Lehkonen, Byron and hell even Omelet

 

[HockeyJunkie87]

Love this one @Ginger Papa! Well done!

The boys have got to freaking wake up and realize this is it. I know we’re up 4 points with three games in hand, but these are the games that really count now. I get it, Flames are tough to play against but so are the playoffs if we get there. Maybe going full playoff intensity rest of the season is too much, but certainly they have to do it for the Calgary games.

 

[Tuggy]

Gotta win tonight.

 

[BLONG7]

Weird start time tonight, and tomorrow??

Huge bounce back game tonight for the Habs!!!
Josh Anderson with a big night guys!!!
Price in net tonight or tomorrow?

 

[Censored Toad]

Nice GDT , liking the photos when all the players were up and comers! Fresh take in a GTD.

GHG

I foresee another loss.

 

[rik schau]

6pm, the Ottawa game tomorrow is 3.

What type of rubbish scheduling is that, it is absurd. Why would the NHL do such a thing,it makes no sense what so ever.

 

[Tyson]

6pm, the Ottawa game tomorrow is 3.

Probably wasn't the same elephant.


LOLOLOL

 

[salbutera]

6pm, the Ottawa game tomorrow is 3.

I believe its 4pm start time

 

[Adam Michaels]

Ginger with another beauty of a GDT.

I choked on my coffee reading the "It probably wasn't the same elephant" punchline.

 

[Tuggy]

Yeah I don't understand the early start time tomorrow. Ottawa doesn't play tonight or Sunday. What's the reasoning?

 

[Deebs]

 

[WeThreeKings]

I kinda want them to lose.. I wanna see the camera pan to Bergevin in the GM box losing his f***ing mind.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Two games in less than 24 hours. Doing it AHL style.

With Primeau sent back to Laval, Price should be in uniform. Wonder if he will get the start tonight or tomorrow against the Sens.
