Did finger guns really end Voros’ career in NY?

[Do Make Say Think]

So I guess this board should be renamed to Spittin' Chicklets discussion

A friend and ex collegue of mine used to put his toes on peoples' balls around the table when we were having lunch, including our boss. Once he accidentally put his toes on the CEOs balls. The CEO never said anything.
Working in Norway was weird. The End.

Ex colleague? So did he put his toes on your balls during lunch too?

What in the sweet flying, Jesus, Mary and Joseph f*** is this.

 

[snag]

haha...after our "merger" 15 years ago one of our former execs met with some of the other big wigs in Edmonton. He thought he was hot shit. Walked down the hall and gave a few double finger guns....

Later that week he was cleaning out his office lol

Voros playing like garbage is what ended his career in NY. And the NHL for that matter.

He was just a weird guy. He had also recently found photos of his dad, a thai woman and some kids in front of a bar with the same name as his dad. Probably the result of years of "business trips."

Anyway, the ceo dressed up in a spandex suit for his bicycle ride of less than a mile to work so he deserved to have his balls toe tickled.

If you want to know what the ball tickling friend looks like you can find him in this comercial, you can probably guess the guy:

When we say finger guns, are we talking a cheeky fun type of finger gun or the "I'm gonna eff you up' glare type finger gun. I mean that makes a hell of a difference in the situation.

Speak for yourself. When I say finger guns, I mean putting my toes on people’s balls

Thanks for clearing that up.

 

[ijuka]

What ended the guy's career probably is that he just wasn't all that good.

 

[brentashton]

This is one weird, yet potentially to be all time epic thread.

Glad I am able to say I posted in it.

 

[Crazy Cizikas]

Thanks for clearing that up.

Is this just a commercial for chocolate?

I forget which podcast I heard Voros on but he came across as the #1 biggest d-bag I have ever heard, without hyperbole. The guy was so full of himself, and is now involved in scummy "rehabilitation" facilities that are known to scam money from the government and health insurance companies while providing no value to the people they claim to be helping.

 

[Rodgerwilco]

unless your using them to blast the gm's wife finger guns aren't going to ruin your career.

What if you use them to (allegedly) blast the generational talent's mother?

While I normally don’t condone scammers, I cant think of two better organizations to be targeted. They both invented scamming themselves.

Yeah well those costs get passed on to you so congrats.

It's far more likely that Voros just wasn't a good player. He was a pre-lockout draft pick who wasn't very successful in the new game. The demand for guys who get +140 PIMs in 50 games just didn't exist in the post-lockout world.

The Rangers missed the playoffs his last year there, then the next season they made the playoffs and the season after that they went to the ECF - sounds like they didn't need him. He never played for the team that drafted him (NJ), played only 55 games for MIN, and played only 13 games for ANA.

Kind of weird to blame Torts for some career 4th line plug fizzling out.

Doesn't quite tell the whole story:

Known for showing up to training camp in top fitness,[citation needed] he took this attitude and delivered a great camp in Anaheim where he played for the Anaheim Ducks of the National Hockey League (NHL) in the 2010-2011 season. 10 games into the season Anaheim put Voros on short term injured reserve. On the day after coming off injured reserve, Voros suffered a broken orbital bone on December 8, 2010, in a game in Vancouver. He was placed on the Anaheim Ducks' injured reserved list until February 11, 2011.

But yeah, sounds like he wasn't that great at the actual hockey part of the game.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

Voros is the last guy that should be fingerblasting someone. Dude was literally, a human punching bag.

 

[brentashton]

Sarcasm, dude.

Just glad you didn’t mix aquavit and finger guns
