Something was definitely jerry rigged. Great ingenuity though whatever they did.....

Nah, Jerry was picked in the 7th, I think

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Rowdy Roddy.

 

[Ramboshaw]

I live in Meadow Lake, proud of the kid!!!

Like, plugged the phone charger into the cigarette lighter? Or did some splicing and fed the jumper cables into the wall of the house?

Learned about this from a Kids in the Hall sketch about some gay arthouse movie. "Just. . . plug it in."

Man, doing some quick reading on this kid, he's pretty intriguing.

Sounds like Stolarz's path.

Seattle's GM was the head scout of Everett when they drafted Carter Hart fwiw. Although they didn't draft Hart until the 8th round so maybe that doesn't mean anything.

Or maybe it means everything.

A power outage nearly denied former Tisdale Trojans goalie Roddy Ross of arguably one of the most memorable moments of his hockey career.
When power went out at his Meadow Lake home during the National Hockey League Entry Draft, a car battery was used to get the TV back up and running. He was able to watch as the Philadelphia Flyers took him with the 169th overall pick in the draft.

That kid is 18 going on 45.

Would you rather go gray or bald at 18? Grey all day for me.

Gray for sure.

Everybody calm down, it's not a real name

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Rowdy Roddy.

Clearly. That is obviously Dermot Mulroney portraying a draft-year CHL goalie.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

Roddy Ross will be a UFA tomorrow (6-1-21) if the Flyers don’t sign him.

 

[Tripod]

@Captain Dave Poulin just so you can see more of your hero.

Or maybe it means everything.

 

[Ironmanrulez]

Was drafted for his name. Solid investment.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

He’s coming off an awful final junior season. Probably a guy you don’t sign.
