With everyone arguing here this is the one thing we can all agree on right???

Hopefully, I never see another like him in my generation.

Too early to tell, bump this thread after 10 seasons

 

[93LEAFS]

Agreed, but he needs to show sustainability for more than 5 months. But, he's absolutely on track. He might have more name recognition than any player in the league.

GOAT

 

[The Macho King]

Gritty is the best thing to happen to the NHL since the first lockout killed the DPE.

It was never too early to say "Dahlin is generational" after half a season.

 

[Tkachuky]

Finally the word being used appropriately.

 

[sufferer]

He's getting kind of stale for me, personally. If he gets caught with some hard drugs and/or prosties you'll find me be back on the bandwagon.

 

[StoneHands]

People need to understand the difference between a generational mascot and a generational talent. As of right now there's no debate that he's a generational talent but time will tell if he's truly a generational mascot. I think he can get there if the franchise surrounds him with a better team to get him more into the national spotlight. I'd hate to see him wasted in a rebuilding era.

 

[Machinehead]

The Gretzky of mascots. GOAT by a distance.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

Greatest thing to come out of Philly since Rocky balboa.

Or ECW.

This entire thread was supposed to be a joke but this is a freaky truth...

Or ECW.

I had no idea that ECW came out of Philadelphia but now that you mention it, there may not have ever been a more perfect juxtaposition in the history of things.

 

[Little Bobby Boo]

Watched a game verses Florida this year and Gritty just casually sat on a group of fans and laid down on them. I actually laughed. Elite mascot.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Gritty is a lock to win the Calder and the Hart for mascots this year.

 

[Kamiccolo]

*ahem*

 

[Silky mitts]

He's getting kind of stale for me, personally. If he gets caught with some hard drugs and/or prosties you'll find me be back on the bandwagon.

Real Gs move in silence like lasagna

 

[MarkusKetterer]

He's only Youppi after a week long bender

 

[Cotton McKnight]

*ahem*

Nope, not even close.

 

[Pi]

Agreed, but he needs to show sustainability for more than 5 months. But, he's absolutely on track. He might have more name recognition than any player in the league.

This is kind of true and sad.

 

[MartinS82]

Yeah, but how'd he do in the '80's, with all his current mascot equipment and training?

I'll bet most of you guys have never even heard of The San Diego Chicken.

You guys only started watching mascots this Summer?

 

[Mallard]

Not even half way through the season and being called generational? So over rated.

 

[FrozenJagrt]

To be serious for a moment, my favourite mascot ever is Wild Wing.

 

[RoyalDoubleMcCheesie]

Found out what Gritty does in the off season appears he digs for gold up in the Yukon
