Rumor: Playoff Avatars?

[MinJaBen]

If we are going with cooking theme, Ill be needing the Swedish Chef cooking with oil gas and gravy.

God, a Muppets themed would be awesome! We can match each player/management/coach etc. with a muppet.

Gonzo = Chat
Sam the Eagle = Staal



I'll take Burns as Sweetums...

My wife and I bought the first several seasons of the Muppet show DVDs for our kids when they were little as something to watch on long road trips. It because of this that they know who a lot of the B-list actors of the 70s are.

They have the Muppet show now on Disney+ streaming and the intro/disclaimer they play before the show starts is f***ing hilarious for all the wrong reasons.

"This program includes negative depictions and/or mistreatment of people or cultures. These stereotypes were wrong then and are wrong now. Rather than remove this content, we want to acknowledge its harmful impact, learn from it and spark conversations to create a more inclusive future together."

If we're doing player based ones, I'm definitely planning on using this one lol:

Seabass is the guy who throws fish.

Tripp is Fozzy or potentially he and Mike are Stadler & Waldorf

Martinook is animal
Fast is the Swedish Chef


This is a work in progress

Well since the Pens are dead, may the luck be with you Hurrifrens, I guess I'm on the bandwagon since I vacation in OBX every summer.

My final muppet pairings after much thought:

Aho - Lew Zealand (fish throwing guy)
KK- Beaker
Drury- Dr. Bunson Honeydew (Harvard)
Slavin- Sam Eagle (needed to be American)
Jordo- Sweetums (big but not mean)
Burns- Animal
Chatfield- Crazy Harry
Turbo- Zoot (sax guy in the band that barely speaks)
Fast- Swedish Chef
Lemieux- Pepe (duh)
Orlov- Constantine (evil Russian Kermit)
Martinook- Kermit (hype man)
Pesce-Sjkei - Stadler & Waldorf
Jarvis - Gonzo
Freddy - Rowlf
Noesen - Dr. Teeth
TDA - Rizzo
Svech- Bobo the Bear
PK - Manamanah
Kuzy - The Birdman
Necas - Scooter

Freddy should have been Wiley E. Coyote - often injured but always bounces back.

When did Jim Henson copy Warner Brother's IP and create his own WEC muppet?

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I'm surprised Fozzy didn't make the cut.

Wasn't looking at the Henson connection sorry, but I thought it was just more appropriate as to how Wile E is always gettig hurt then bouncing back.

My bad, and you do have a nice list

So, the playoff avatar theme is everyone do whatever the f*** they want then?

Pretty sure it's been like that the last few times. Unfortunately, we're all growing older and have less free time to commit to making avatars.

 

[Lempo]

I'm surprised Fozzy didn't make the cut.

Back in my young days, I would periodically hear people quote "like Fonzie said, [--]", and I was always perplexed how come people thought the annoying comedy bear was supposed to be some sort of great thinker.

Hunh, so is this what they were referring to when that show coined jumping the shark?

Tripp is Fozzy, missed typing it.

So, is anyone taking playoff avatar requests?

If so, I'd like a picture of Slavin that then changes into a picture of Tripp Tracey with that chef's hat, with Gordon Ramsey next to him, and then the final picture saying "we're cooking."

There's probably people that would do a better job than me at making that. Thanks for anyone that might help!

Traveling tomorrow, so won't be very accessible then, but here's a couple of quick mock ups. Feel free to use or not use them. Or edit them.

We're really in the dumbest timeline, aren't we.
