Good Nickname or BEST NICKNAME!!

by Mike @ MHH on Feb 24, 2011 8:14 AM MST

Was "Baron von Wolski" one of, if not THE, best nickname the MHH community has ever come up with?

Editor's Note: Sorry for the delay in getting this up. I know this community DEMANDS the highest Wolski content of any on the SBN. Please accept the writing department's humblest apologies, especially DDC.

Was “Wolsking around” one of the best, if not THE best, synonym for floating around there ever was?

Look at the jag in the yellow pullover standing up in the background. Yes, the puck is in the back of the net, but the guy’s two rows off the ice and he looks like he’s loitering on the streecorner—like he’s been standing that way for 15 minutes, and everyone else is around there seated. I don’t mind folks who start their cheers prematurely, but if that guy had blocked my view of that goal, I wouldn’t have been happy.
