Playoff Avatars

[Blueline Bomber]

Now that that's out of the way, any ideas?

I was thinking with the significant amount of Finns on the team, and Svech and now Pyotr, there might be something about a foreign revolution in Raleigh.

Another idea was "Experience Canes hockey", but do it sarcastically. Sort of a

"Take the first penalty of the game: Experience Canes hockey"

"Never score on an empty net: Experience Canes hockey"

Bojangles theme

 

[A Star is Burns]

Bojangles theme

If not that specific, food themed

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Bojangles theme

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Make the whole thing TDA themed.

 

[SlavinAway]

Given current events I vote against a foreign revolution theme. Especially involving Svech or Pyotr.

It would be pretty jerky, but I think you're right.

since koochie sounds like a random hillbilly nickname. We give all the players ridiculous sounding nicknames. fishy and Nachos works but not Marty or Staalsy, etc. we make one for all of them and then everyone can use their favorite player.

Just a throw back to our redneck hockey days.

dont @ me for comingling hillbilly and redneck.

 

[Chrispy]

How many weird nicknames can we come up with for the team?

Koochie
Fishy
Nachos
Turbo
Gronk
Grampa
Prius

 

[Lempo]

Make the whole thing TDA themed.

Locker room cancers.

Nookie and quickie (not a name given for a good reason)

Im sure the more creative folks could come up with some. Put @Lempo on it

Locker room cancers.

Maybe a stretch from this but maybe the island of misfit toys? Something around Brind'Amour and King Moonracer just makes sense to me

 

[DaveG]

I know it's been done before but something Tripp themed. We've done the Huge Caniac thing before so maybe something around his food obsessions.

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

How about the Finnish flag?

[Finlandia WOAT]

Bojangles theme

Only if they sponsor it

"Take the first penalty of the game: Experience Canes hockey"

I was thinking of something to do with penalties as well. I think the avatars would go something like:

frame 1: *picture of Slavin laying out some guy with massive hit

frame 2: *text overlay "The lord be with you."

frame 3: *picture of Slavin in the penalty box

frame 4: *clever theme name that I can't think of yet

frame 5: *2022 Stanly Cup Playoffs

So on and so forth for each player: TDA and politics; Aho and coffee; Finnish Mafia, etc.

 

[SlavinAway]

Dibs on Slavin this year

Empirical Canes hockey

Actual outcome:

 

[Svechhammer]

Raleigh Metro = Best Metro

Grampa

Is Grampa = Father Finn?

Skjei could be Boom (show him laying out former Rangers)

Pesce is Peesh

Slavin is Lord

Don't forget NeenerNeener, MartyParty, & Kooter / KostcoMiami

We need something for Jarvis still and Svech (unless we just use Svech or Mista Svech)

Jarvis = Cherub

Svech = *Marty shriek*

I've lurked on here forever but rarely post so I don't have much skin in the game. I think it would be hilarious to make use of Rod's go-to post-game phrases "That wasn't how it's supposed to look" and "That was how it's supposed to look". Seems like an easy flow of: derpy player pic > stern Rod ("...wasn't...") > awesome player pic > slightly less stern Rod ("...was...").

Lots of cool ideas as usual. I have no strong preference, but if we do a Tripp theme could be a digging in with Tripp theme…
