You've got me lost with this one Rudee. How's the knitting going?

Rudee said...

Well Winifred, that would be Pavel Datsuk from the Detroit Red Wings. It appears this gentleman player is holding the hand of player # 86 from the Pittsburgh team.

Pyzahn said...

You are too funny! That arm looks frighteningly real. Grrrr.

Rudee said...

Well really, on second look, it's 87's hand that he's holding.

Rose said...

I'm totally at a loss here; is that an ARM????

Silliyak said...

Sorry for your loss tonight. I don't think the Sharks could have beat either of them.

How'd you get to be such a hockey fan?

Sillliyak, it's better to win it on home ice, so it's OK. In addition, I now have a plan for Friday night!

Kathleen-it was simple. Beat 'em or join 'em. I grew up in a hockey town and was surrounded by hockey fans. Here, one either loves hockey, or doesn't dare voice another opinion. We're Wing Nuts.

Silliyak said...

There's been some great hockey in any case.

Winifred said...

Looks like a rough game there. The arm does look real. Is is part of an act they do?

Rudee said...

Winifred, I think the picture is photoshopped. It's funny because this is a player who has won the Lady Byng Trophy 3 times. The trophy is awarded to the "player adjudged to have exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct combined with a high standard of playing ability".

The arm is fake...
