Haha, Russo noticed Brodin's basketball skills also.

Mitchell's tights/leggings made me uncomfortable.

Forgot until this morning. Almost done with mine

x2. Maybe Scandy picked the wrong sport going up

Dude, I thought that was Prosser.

Either way, he looked a little, um, mentally challenged. I'm sure it's just the tights though.

How is out that only Scandella had a pair of shoes that were usable on the court? Playing with socks only is asking for injury!

And Mitchell...barefoot? Really?

To be honest, I'd rather play barefoot than wear socks if I didn't have shoes.

 

[Minnesota]

Do hockey players even need shoes?

 

[Avder]

I hate socks. They dry my feet out.

 

[Minnesota]

Squirt lotion into your socks.

 

[Vashanesh]

Squirt lotion into your socks.

That sounds awful.

[Puhis]

Try wearing woolen socks. They're awesome.

 

[Avder]

Sounds itchy.

Don't they make socks with lotion in them? IIRC they are mainly girl designs but who looks at socks anyways! I personally wear fuzzy socks in the winter.

 

[Avder]

I like how we've gotten from the guys playing basketball in questionable footwear to advice about socks and lotion.

Yup, I've seen them too.

 

[MK9]

Not quite, he was in Houston for two seasons

My error. Thought I heard someone say he was in the Minnesota Wild system for 5 and interpreted it as him being in Houston for that time period.

Merino wool is quite soft. It's a little more expensive but totally worth it.

 

[Jongdo]

It's gonna be interesting to see which one Koivi or Grandlund have more point's at end of the season. Koivi with 1st line and 1st PP minutes vs Grandlund's 2nd line minutes.. Actually i don't think there is gonna be big difference..

No, he wasn't in the Wild system for 5 either. He was undrafted and the Wild signed him after he left UMD as an Undrafted Free Agent, then sent him to Houston.

Wild Signed Fontaine in Spring of 2011

Just said I'd heard that. And it really does seem like he's been around forever.

He seems to have been around forever because we live in Minnesota and he was a WCHA Star for a Minnesota based College team.
