To quote the friend who sent me the Yahoo! Sports/NHL mailer down below, “Looks like Yahoo Sports is doing a different kind of “fantasy hockey” this season!”
Seriously. Judge for yourself:
Since I’ve taken a stand this season against entering any evil, soul-destroying hockey pools, maybe everyone but me has already seen this. But geez… I had to pass it on.
And if I may suggest a tag line for the promotion: Fantasy Hockey Porn. Coming soon to a computer near you.

Seriously? You don’t find AO’s Playgirl centerfold imagery to be a bit odd? I swear to God, I think he’s licking that hockey stick. 
(But I’ll admit, I’m pretty immature…)

I agree, he has a “I love you so much” kind of look in his face. He is like sucking the graphite out of his stick.

He looks like he’s smelling it. Ewww…
I agree - it is a pretty odd pose.
Or maybe he’s narcoleptic and dozing off!

About Canucks & Beyond
Alanah McGinley has been blogging hockey since 2003 (with a notable gap in time through 2010, kicking it with new baby Lucy while living knee-deep in chaos while reading “parenting for complete idiots” during every spare minute) sharing opinions, rants and not-so-deep thoughts with anyone who will listen.
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.
So that’s me. Who the hell are you?
