Heineman was playing so well that the City of Salt Lake, fearing for a night of fourth line domination, took it upon themselves to eliminate him from tonight’s game.
From files from the Associated Press:
Montreal Canadiens “super” rookie Emil Heineman, the man they affectionately call “Moose” was once again the target of a vehicle attack by supporters of an opposing team, this time in Salt Lake City.
Heineman, a rookie quietly having a terrific season in Montreal, was given the nickname “Moose” from his teammates for his propensity to have vehicles and humans bounce off his large frame with little to no personal damage. Only this time, things were different.
“We did it, we got that (expletive redacted) Moose,” an unnamed Salt Lake City employee was heard shouting yesterday evening. “We lost several vehicles, including an armoured tank and multiple city trucks, in a wildlife/hockey incident that is being investigated,” was the statement issued from the Mayor’s office.
Speaking upon the condition of anonymity, several City of Salt Lake employees said they had received inside information of the location of “the Moose” from a demonic smiling, mullet sporting gentleman with an affiliation for sour candy who kept muttering “now I’ll get to play.”
