The Hockey Drunk (*possibly the best URL in all of hockey website history, by the way) made a post last week, “If the NHL was High School”...
- Calgary would be the bipolar popular chick who can please many people when she’s up but when she’s down she tries to commit suicide.
- Colorado would be the kid who did really well in elementary school and is just a slacker now.
- Edmonton would be the kid that was accidentally castrated in the early 1990’s and hasn’t been the same since.
- Minnesota would be the kid who’s older brother was an All-American jock who got all the girls and success, but he is just a water boy.
- Vancouver would be the kid that has good marks all year, then skips the finals to smoke weed and fails.
The rest of the NHL was also similarly evaluated. Other personal favorites are Anaheim, Atlanta, Toronto…

Anaheim would be the kid that beats you up and steals your lunch money.
...while wearing a ridiculous cartoon duck on his chest. If he wasn’t so mean, he’d be the one being picked on.

Detroit would be the foreign exchange student.
I resemble that remark…Detroit would be the kid whose parents’ house looks like an IKEA…

Very funny stuff. Just one amendment, though…
Detroit would be the foreign exchange student who gets all “As” in spite of not speaking English.

San Jose is dead on.
Major test anxiety even though they know all the answers for the final exams.

In addition to writing Canucks & Beyond and helping manage Kukla’s Korner, Alanah was one of the founders and co-hosts of The Crazy Canucks Podcast. She has contributed pieces to FoxSports.com and the New York Times Slapshot blog, as well as other stray destinations in cyberspace.
