The photos

in the player stats page are the bomb. Here’s my notes on the pics:

Arny: They found a picture of him in his natural state of D’oh!
Clark: Where mouthpieces are optional…
Foote: Appears constipated.
Guite: They used a picture of him receiving the news that he was a healthy scratch so Arny could get quality PP minutes. -2 points for no ‘stache picture as an alternate.
Jones: Looks like he’s trying REALLY hard in that pic. Poor guy.
Lappy: I’m pretty sure that every picture of him has some kind of damage to his nose…
Liles: Rockin’ the “Look into the cool, comforting depths of my gorgeous baby blues…”
McLeod: Looks like somebody just farted in his beer!
Sakic: Chillin’ like a villian!
Smytty: That’s what SHE said!!!
Tjarnqvist: I wasn’t aware there was photographic evidence that he played for this team.
Tucker: Has a little Oscar the Grouch action going on there.
Baron von Wolski: That pic is at least three years old. I hardly recognize him!

Colorado Avalanche: Gellin' and Propellin'!!!

The Lappy picture is great. That’s definitely a major wound to his already obliterated nose.

Go Avs! Let's get some goals!

I hate to admit this, but I might have a mancrush on Liles’ eyes. (notice the appropriate use of the apostrophe).

You’re just now realizing that? I’ve been sending him inappropriate letters and emails for MONTHS now.

I’m becoming quite familiar with the court system, that’s for sure.

Jones: Looks like he’s trying REALLY hard in that pic. Poor guy.

He looks more constipated than Foote…yea he’s trying real hard; don’t rupture that colon….
McLeod: looks like he’s trying to get the part of Dracula in the school play.

Now and then we had the hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be PIRATES.

I like Boods picture

Its very up to date. Ya know if we were back in his debut year.

Also

Why is Boods and Raycroft in the offense and defense, I know Boods lack of offense has been hurting the team but why have Razor in there, I’d be surprised If he could even shoot the puck the length of the ice.

It is possible for the goalies to score assists (and goals), therefore they get included in the individual stats list.

Make sense

But if you click on the link to their individual stats page it just shows their goalie stats. It seems it would have made more sense to have the Goals, Assists, Points totals after their goalie stats like in teh NHL games.
