OT: Playoff Avatars Thread (VOTE FOR YOUR CHOICE)

[Richter Scale]

Well, to move things forward lets throw some ideas for format around.

3 slide design I assume? Slide 1: Far-fetched successful scenario, picture w/ text. Slide two: "Anything Can Happen. Slide 3: Playoffs logo.

Feelings?

Sounds about right. But I might go with a scenario/statement for slide 1 that has actually happened instead of some hypothetical (it seemed like you were going in that direction - correct me if I'm wrong), and make it into a question -- i.e.:


- Brad Richards gets his first career hat trick?

- Rangers trade 40-goal sniper, Marian Gaborik, for a 3C and improve?

- Derek Stepan is our 1C?

- Rick Nash comes to Rangers' offensive blackhole system and becomes a point per game player?

- Rangers actually won a game against the Penguins this year?

- Ryane Clowe, goal-less 28 games before coming to the Rangers; in his first game with NYR, scores 2 goals?

- Mats Zuccarello is 5 foot 7 inches, and plays in the NHL?

- John Moore comes to the Rangers and gets in first career fight?

- Darroll Powe plays 42 games and has zero points?

- Michael Del Zotto hits the net?

- Brian Boyle on the power play?


...good healthy mix of optimistic stuff, self deprecating material, and some sarcasm, etc. Then obviously continue with your template. Slide 2: "Anything can happen." Slide 3: Playoff graphic.

I like these a lot. This is the kind of funny stuff that I wasn't coming up with. Great call on things that have already happened as opposed to hypotheticals.

 

[Machinehead]

This gonna be mine...

Slide 1:

Brassard = Savard?????

Anything Can Happen slide

Stanley Cup Playoffs slide

 

[The Gloaming]

Except for Savard having a more oval-shaped head, they look pretty much the same.

 

[Kris Chreider]

Can someone make a ACH for me with Stu Bickel hoisting the Conn Smythe? I'd do it myself but the thought of paying for Photoshop just to make a playoff avy is making me feel bad.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I think it would be funny to have the eye-stab guy then the cat going, "no." haha

Anywho,

"Wanna switch teams?"

"Anything can happen."

 

[haveandare]

I'm still trying to find a still of Torts laughing at the presser after the Devils game. Once I get it, I think I'd like "Torts is happy?" "Anything Can Happen."

[haveandare]

Thank you!

 

[Blue Blooded]

"Will Torts remove Girardi from the PP?"

 

[Blue777]

Made a few Anything Can Happen avatar samples with Stu Bickel winning the Conn Smythe.

Nice work! I love the first one on the far left. Very smooth.

 

[AWall THE CLAW]

Win a playoff game?

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!

 

[Kershaw]

Made a few Anything Can Happen avatar samples with Stu Bickel winning the Conn Smythe.

These are amazing.

Are you taking requests PJay?

 

[Hemlawk86]

Im still rocking this old avatar. Need a new one...

 

[The Gloaming]

What are we waiting for? Let's get it started.

I call "Michael Del Zotto hit the net?"

 

[EpicDing]

I call:

Derek Stepan is our MVP?

 

[Blue777]

Nice work! I love the first one on the far left. Very smooth.

Thanks. Yeah, the first one is probably the best one.

These are amazing.

Are you taking requests PJay?

I don't know. If no one else is supposed to make them I guess I can do it.
Everyone needs to agree on what style/theme to use though.
And are we gonna have a caption before Anything Can Happen! like "Michael Del Zotto hit the net?" "Stu Bickel winning the Conn Smythe?" etc.

 

[Championship*]

I feel some kind of pride knowing I helped along "Anything Can Happen" so I voted for that

 

[JohnC]

I so was the first one to nominate it

Go me

Yeah the 1st slide would be our own pics plus captions, then the 2nd and 3rd slides would be what you gave us with Bickel, anything can happen, and the playoff logo.

I think we have a consensus. If you're willing to do it, then we move right ahead

 

[Machinehead]

Caption: "Torts is Happy?"

Then this

I think that's perfect.

 

[haveandare]

Caption: "Torts is Happy?"

Then this

I think that's perfect.

Agreed. I'd sport that with pride.

 

[Hockey Team]

I voted anything can happen because I don't want to get banned :p

Srsly though.. Anything CATS happen gets my vote

 

[Championship*]

If someone could do this one for me I'd be grateful

Kreider in an offensive role?

Anything can happen
