May 12th Beard of the Day: Hatrick Kane

by Killion on May 12, 2009 1:16 PM CDT

So clearly - this one isn't about how amazing the beard is. In fact to quote McClure: "It's like the rings of Jupiter or a woman's clitoris....it can only be seen if the light hits it at just the right angle"

You can't say he's not trying though both on the beard and on the ice. Did anyone see that game coming? 3 goals and only one of them luck?

The move around Ohlund (was it Ohlund? - don't quite remember) to set up his first goal shows he's not afraid to go up along the boards even if the Canucks thought they had rattled him.

The second goal was the lucky one that bounced past/over some sticks and let Kane stuff it in between Lou's leg and the post..

The third goal.. well..

Possibly the prettiest goal of his career?

And the quote of the night too:

''Any time you get a wake-up call from old Willie Mitchell -- he decided to make some comments that fired me up,'' Kane said. ''He said I couldn't play five-on-five, and I had three goals playing five-on-five tonight, so ask him about that!''

In a post game interview he said he might let it keep growing in the offseason.

By the start of next season it may actually, you know…exist.

I can happily say that, even after less than a week of growing my "beard"

I’m still beating Kane. I’d be somewhere between Toews and Kane, I think, and I’ve got two years on those fools.

NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE

Is it me or does it seem like DT says ‘Fuck Ya!’ while he’s high-fiving everyone around him?

The quick reverse backhander top-shelf was sick!

The beard is sick. The kid’s are sick. Everything about that game last night is sick. And so is Mastodon’s record (3-0). I have to find my ambulance driver jersey for tonight’s game 6 in Anaheim.

"a release of emotions"

— doesn’t even begin to describe the fluctuations of DT’s face in that clip. Epic, just epic.

Also, every time Kane scores one like his first or his third from last night, I think to myself that he shouldn’t even be allowed to possess that kind of skill. His wrist shot went missing for awhile after his injury, but he seems to have regained his confidence in that regard. And his backhanders, pretty sure he scored another wicked one against the Canucks earlier this season (December, away?), but yow, that stuff scorches.

I love how the broadcast guys just sit in silence and let the crowd (and the PA system) speak for itself.

Shit

My legs have more hair than he has on his face.

But I can’t shoot like him, so I’ll just shut up now. :)

If I can't be a good example, I'll just be a horrible warning

Just my contribution

Vagine or not

Whether his facial hair looks like a vagine or not, he still had the sickest game yesterday.

by PepeSilvia on May 12, 2009 7:56 PM CDT reply actions

He played especially well this series. When you have a threat like Kaner on the ice, the defense knows that they have to push to play against him. which gives other players on his shift more opportunities. And he is a tough little son of a bitch, no?
