Guy knows nothing about hockey or who Kessel even is...one of his little servants wrote him up that line to be funny...

It might just not be funny because you're a Rangers fan.

You've really pulled back the curtain here.

 

[BonMorrison]

You apperently, given that you felt the need to comment on it.

That's funny. Always loved Obamas speeches. Have to listen to this one too.

I feel like the word "troll" is used way too much by people on twitter these days. It's a joke. He made a joke at Kessel's expense. He wasn't trying to get him worked up.

Still, that's a very funny opening.

 

[themelkman]

Hasn't he said hes a Chicago fan and watches games?

It's long been incredibly over-/misused word.

He used to live there I think. I remember him saying that he's a fan of the Hawks. But maybe it was just a speech gimmick?

 

[kypredsfan]

I like that sense of humor

 

[projexns]

Obama has read all of the Kessel threads over the years and this is his inside joke with HFBoards

 

[SK13]

He's went to school/lived in Chicago.

Unprompted, he said that he hoped the Blackhawks won again last year so they could have 4 during his presidency.

You. Fun. Parties.



Edit: I agree about the word troll, this is not trolling. Trolling is not making a joke

 

[Plural]

He's from Chicago.

He's from Hawaii, but he lived in Chicago as an adult.

Edit: I see you already edited.

Damn.

Beat my ninja edit.

Troll is now synonymous with joke to people under 15

How many other Americans are on the Penguins? Can't think of any off the top of my head.
