Aw, man, I don’t want to wait in this long line.  Isn’t there a “10 Items or Less” line somewhere?  

Awesome, now that hockey’s over I can get back to my first love - bowling!

Geno, get back here.  You’re supposed to shake my hand before you leave, like the sign says.

It’s okay, there’s still plenty of time left on the clock.  Right?

I don’t know who’s gonna clean up all these yellow shirts, but it’s not gonna be me.

There haven’t been any TOSG posts lately because my team made the Playoffs.  I was preoccupied with watching the games and then spending hours debating the merits and demerits of each player and coaching decision and fucked up call on the ice.  Also it felt like bad karma to make posts about sad hockey players because I didn’t want my team to end up on the end of a joke about being sad.  Then my team was eliminated, and it was my turn to be that one sad guy for a few days.  

I’m finally done feeling sorry for myself.  I have some catching up to do.  For the next few days, enjoy these posts of sad guys being eliminated from the Playoffs.  Sooner or later I’ll catch up with the actual games and we’ll be able to laugh at sad guys in a more timely fashion.  

There are going to be a lot more sad guys in the weeks to come - more than I can keep up with.  Don’t forget to send any truly disheartening ones my way.  Submission button on the right, @sadhockey, or Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/SadHockey)

Huh, what do you know?  My skates are on the wrong feet!

Oh no, Latendresse is telling another one of his boring stories.

Hey, do you mind not celebrating right in the middle of our synchronized swimming practice? 

“Hey, you in the Isles jersey!  You see this line?  Don’t cross this line.  Only Penguins are allowed to cross this line.”

“Oh yeah?  Well I’m gonna draw my OWN line, and no Penguins are allowed to cross it, so don’t even think about it.”

Everybody stand back!!

Hey, what are you guys looking at?  Come on, let me see!  Guys?  Hey!  Let me see!!!

If I leave right now, I bet I can get to the goalie store before it closes.

I could go for a good cry right about now.

Excuse me, I’d like to get by now.
