I voted for Parise (his Olympic heroics won him the vote), but since it won’t let you vote twice, I’d like to put in my honorable mention for Andrew Cogliano.

Excellent idea - sure to stir up trouble with the menfolk, of course.

There is a flaw that you can only vote once. Maybe if we do this again we can do it in brackets. However, I really need to think long and hard on this tonight. I’ll vote tomorrow.

I have been told more than once that I am a troublemaker, the title does read attention LADIES of CC, so if they venture this way, it’s their own fault!!

Well-said. I was kinda kidding myself.

Like telling someone "Don't look"

you know that by doing so you guarantee they will.

If the guys and gals who brought you the financial meltdown deserve big bonuses, where do I sign up?

we just assume that by now you guys would know better ;)

Intelligence vs Wisdom

Knowing what not to do and choosing to not do it are two different things.

it was a tough call but I had to go with Talbot ;)

Hmmmm

Maybe I should start a thread on the hottest Ice Girls/Dance Team/Hockey Bunnies with pictures.

All in favor?

Icd2you, this is now a must, I will be looking for picks during the game tonight and will email them to you… Obviously I am not attending, so it looks like game thread and bunny hunting. HAPPY EASTER!

I had to go with Sheldon, but Malone was a close second. Something about scruffy hair and tattoos……

by T-Leaf on Apr 3, 2010 11:44 AM EDT reply actions  

Well……with no Cam or Timmy……I guess I would say Andrew. However, Sheldon looked pretty good with some knee sticking out there.

I like Cam between the pipes...

I am making this very clear…My wife is the one that voted for Souray. I was reading this post she walked into room and said , and I quote… " Who in the name of all horny God is that" … I let her read the post and she made me do a vote by proxy.. otherwise it was couch city. She feels very strongly about this…

Sure…. is that Ricky Martin coming out of your closet?

"The increase in pain is way beyond what you would expect a person to play with," said coach Paul Maurice. "Unfortunately it’s even beyond what Tim Gleason can play with, because he can play with just about anything."

Ricky Martin.....

sigh

I mean, nope never heard of him

Methinks he doth protest too much. ;)

Hey ladies I found one you can add to your voting…

by max creek on Apr 3, 2010 9:11 PM EDT reply actions  

I had to vote for King Henrik but Pyatt has the eyes hands down!

by Caneshope on Apr 3, 2010 10:54 PM EDT reply actions  

Really ladies, all of these guys would be perfect for a repeat appearance! Just start at the top of the list and lets work our way thru them all! What a nice way to spend the summer!

by Caneshope on Apr 3, 2010 11:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

I believe that’s how this all started, Caniacgirl and I were bored during the off season! LOL!! it’s gonna be an even longer one this year, more time for hockey hotties I guess!!

Parise’s a cutie. He’s that guy your mom absolutely adores.

Here's to all us girls who love hockey...and the men who play it.

he was looking good last night too!!

It’s a testament to his attractiveness and the intelligence of the ladies here at CC.

Someone vote for Brooks Laich-I just feel bad for him. LOL

by caniacgirl on Apr 4, 2010 6:08 PM EDT reply actions  

Nah. First off, he’s not all that hot. Second off, the Craps? That jersey is just too ugly, it distracts from any potential hotness.

by T-Leaf on Apr 4, 2010 6:51 PM EDT up reply actions  

and surprisingly Malone only has 1 vote?

by jenniwa30 on Apr 4, 2010 7:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah I’m a little surprised by that myself.

Surprisingly rather even on the votes. I figured Parise would run away with it. I voted for Ryan Kesler.

Although if old what’s-his-name in the picture that Max posted above had been in the running I probably would have felt obligated to throw a mercy vote his way.

If we had done this with the Canes, fights may have broken out in the voting process. :)

I think we’d get a consensus top 5 or 6 without too much trouble, but we’d never come up with a consensus number 1.

A consensus top 5 or 6 is a GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE

Thank you to everyone that voted (especially whoever through the pity vote Laich’s way LOL). The winner’s spotlight will be up sometime this evening!
