Facebook Ain’t Vegas…

...ergo, what happens on Facebook doesn’t stay on Facebook.
Photos of good times past, courtesy of one of Ray Emery’s Facebook friends:
Alfie, Alfie, Alfie. And you’ll spot some other familiar guys there, too. (Although I can’t identify the passed-out dude in fatigues. Lucky for him, because that last pic is just begging for captions…).
Anyway, harmless fun. (Update: a party visit from a hypnotist being the likely explanation). And Swedes like to goof off, I guess; just witness this memory of Mats Sundin in his Leafs days. People really need to quit calling Swedish players ‘boring’.
As mentioned, these photos were available on Ray Emery’s Facebook, according to the person who sent them to me. And they’re not a big deal—obviously boys just having fun (or whateverthehell Alfredsson is up to there)—but that’s not all Emery has posted. He’s also got his personal info section filled in to provide his personal phone number and email address.
And perhaps it’s a good idea to remove those kind of details, Mr. Emery. Bruce Garrioch gets his hands on info like that, he’ll be drunk-dialing you daily… ![]()
*note: above photos and others originally found here, here, here, here and here.

Well this certainly explains the rumours of, er, “tension in the room”...
Thanks, I’ll be here all week.

So I’m guessing that costume is paraplegic Michael Jordan?... Er, I mean, coked up paraplegic Michael Jordan?

FYI, this was from Halloween two years ago. It was a (I’m guessing private) event at the Casino Lac Lemay…
JAMESinMI, I’m pretty sure he’s suppose to be Vince Carter. Not sure why the wheelchair though.

Macho man is Redden (there was a pic with him and his now wife Danika dressed like that for Halloween)
I’m wondering if Luigi is Eaves?
Just love Alfie in tootoo it’s hot!

I say this is last years Halloween party not two years ago, because it look like Robitaille in the camo and Slash is definetley Eaves.

Slash wannabe is actually a buddy of Emery’s who helped in his er, goalie training. Forget his name though…

I saw these on facebook and was really surprised when he posted those pics and his cell number. He might want to adjust his privacy settings lol. In his defense, these are regular everyday photos on facebook and people only care cause it’s him. There isn’t anything really controversial about these. Boring news day I guess lol

Haha, those are actually pretty funny, looks like a good night out. I have been to a hypnotist show before and they are so much fun! I gotta read this blog more often!

I’m still trying to piece it together.
80s hair band is Nick Foligno.
Senators Jersey is Brian McGrattan.
The last linked (but not shown) photo is Mike Fisher.
Considering I know there are no women playing for Ottawa, but there is a woman in the photo, the other victims of white shirt’s hypnosis could just be friends, but I’ll take a few guesses and say Luigi is Spezza, the non-Swede in pink could be Redden, Army fatigues could have been Randy Robitaille, shiny red somehow makes me think Chris Phillips, and wannabe Slash best stab in the dark is Heatley.
