Malkin is such a selfish player!

Oh shit! we need a mod!

Did this seriously become a bashing thread? Guys...it's...it's a joke. And yeah, the twitterverse was filled with idiots saying that about Geno. And the response from level headed people? Geno would probably get two bags of skittles from a vending machine and dub it the best day of his life.

Ask him outright if it was better than winning the Stanley Cup. He'll say no. He's said that his whole career that Cups are what he cares about. Mama Malkin said those are the only pictures he has in the house (him with the Cup)...no individual awards.

His tentative grasp on the English language isn't quite enough to offend me.

Malkin.... Selfish?!? And a Caps fan is sayin this?

Nice twist on a classic joke, 46.

I remember a few years ago when he said that in an interview after a playoff game that he always thought of the Stanley Cup as being the highest honor for an athlete. It obviously wasn't worded like that, but you get it.

Then he said something similar when his was put on the Olympic team.

This year he made a big deal about wanting 50 goals.

Now it's the NHL awards.

See a pattern? That's just kind of his personality.

I'm not bashing. My irony meter app crashed when I clicked on this thread, so I thought I'd add something to it for my troubles :p

Exactly. In case people hadn't noticed, he's a pretty emotional guy. He choked up giving that speech for pity's sake (and I did too...)! I have never once doubted that guy's goal in this league. Stanley Cups.

Guys.



Getting two bags of Skittles at a vending machine is a really big deal.


Just to put things in perspective.

 

[dash]

And how many Twix does that make you for you today?

 

[DChero]

Two bags of Skittles > Art Ross/Ted Lindsey > 50 Goals > Olympic Gold for Russia > Stanley Cup?

 

[Darkstone42]

And three bags of Skittles is a downright miracle. At that point, you have to call in the Pope or something.

That's just a myth. No ones ever gotten three bags at once.

I hope Geno doesn't go. I don't want him to get fat too.

LOL!

I can actually see those three goofballs having a good time together. I can also see Semin getting jealous that OV is talking to Geno too much.

That redheaded squirt? Who cares?

So did I in my original post... still got the anyways





For the record, I don't think anyone really needed to calm down. Just another day on the Hoop

 

[SLY]

If I calm down I may die from a heat stroke.
