Welcome excuse to post Swedish supermodels!

6'3", 196 lb, 21-year old Swedish forward Andreas Engqvist has been signed by the Habs to a three year deal after impressing during development camp. Financial terms were not disclosed, yada yada. He spent the last 3 years in the Swedish Elite League with Djurgardens IF.

His compatriot is the leggy Caroline Winberg.

In other news, North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il has cancer

Prompting reactions along these lines

Sonia said...

...And in other hockey-related news, RDS reports that Jacques Lemaire is returning to the Devils, accompanied by his minstrel, Mario Tremblay. yaay

If Kim Jon II dies, can we post hot Korean models?

Lukestar said...

Are there any? (yes HF10 this is my lame attempt to egg you into posting some just to show me they do exist)

@ Lukestar:

That's more HF29's department, but if you googled "Im Ji Hye" you'd probably find what you're looking for.

Yay. Three cheers for Swedish supermodels and decaying dictators!(Not to be confused with assholes from PEI - taterdicks.)

So I was just partaking in some afternoon canine intercourse at work and thought I'd do some name meaning searches to come up with some optional nicknames:

Gionta:
Italian: from a short form of the personal name Bonag(g)iunta, literally ‘good addition’, a name commonly given in the late Middle Ages to a long-awaited or much-desired son. Hmm, maybe THIS is the TFS?

Spanish (Gómez):
from a medieval personal name, probably of Visigothic origin. zzzzzzzzzz El Nino it is then?

Moen:
habitational name from any of numerous farmsteads. Basically a gardener. Example: Travis is out Moen the lawn. Name idea: Farmer

Gill:
topographic name for someone who lived by a ravine. As in a troll? To stretch it we could call him Grendel.

Mara:
from a personal name (Latin Martinus, a derivative of Mars, genitive Martis, the Roman god of fertility and war...blah blah - that's enough. Mars - God of War it is then.

Czech (Špacek):
nickname from a word meaning ‘starling’. Birdman.

Cammalleri: Squid. No questions asked.

edit: just TFS, not the TFS.

Ignorant ESPN columnist's predictions for next year:

NHL 2009-2010

That dude should stick to football and baseball.

L Dude said...

Any of you Montrealites (or ers, or istes) heading to the Stanley Keg this weekend? Sounds like a fun thing to watch. You know - if the weather's crappy.

L Dude said...

@Boob: You will be hard pressed to find one prognosticator to predict the Habs in a top 8 seed. And that's just the way I like it.
No pressure. *See last year.

2 Years ago, you would be lucky to find anybody predicting the Habs make the playoffs, let alone finish atop the east.

And the funniest thing will be all of the Toronto media Brian Burke lovefest ass kissers that will put the Leafs not only ahead of the Habs, but in the playoffs.

Also just the way I like it. No pressure on the Habs so when they finish 5th or 6th, it's already a victory. And when the Leafs finish 12th, "WHAT WENT WRONG?!"

Just for gits and shiggles:

Pens
Caps
Bruins
Flyers
Habs
Devils
Sens
Canes
------
Rangers
Sabres
Lightning
Leafs
Panthers
Islanders
Thrashers

And I'm not totally ruling out 1st in the Northeast if the Habs can at least split the season series with the B's.

moeman said...

Depending on his on-ice attitude Travis might become our 'Taxi Driver'.

moeman said...

Per ESPN's predickshuns;

"If Kovalev tears it up at Ottawa, his departure will be embarrassing", then the same dick says OTT will finish 11th. Also, leaf in 8th? heh.

moeman said...

heh, Le Bluet will be assisting Coach Lemaire in NJ. Maybe Brodeur will pick a fit and demand to be traded, to Montreal! (If life is fair the Devils will get Pleks+Jaro+Big Tits in return (closest trio I could compare to Kovalenko+Thibault+Rucinski). Hey didn't we send COL Keane too?

Habsfan10 said...

moeman, if karma was fair, the Habs would get Brodeur and Parise for Pleks, O'Byrne and Jaro to make up for Reggie's murdering of the franchise.

moeman said...

Did CSI:La Presse's all-knowing rejean tremblay (how's that for a coinkidink on the family name) discuss a fatum on Peanut's (aka Pinotte) slaughter of our Glorieux?

Lukestar said...

@HF10:

EXCELLENT suggestion my man!

moeman said...

A fucking explanation as to why a lot of us fucking 4HF Habs fans swear so fucking much. Or maybe its just the fucking Word Verifications!

South Shore Habs Fan said...

I feel like Moen will be a fixture of the Habs for years to come.

*crickets*

Okay, so comedy isn't my thing. As for standings:

Pens
Caps
Bruins
Flyers (with more points than the Caps and Bruins)
Canes
Habs
Devils
Lightning (wait, what?!)
------
Leafs
Sens
Sabres
Rangers
Thrashers
Panthers
Islanders

Lightning get in based on a much-improved blueline, Stamkos not sucking for half a year, and Mike Smith staying healthy.

Good one SSHF. Bonus, faucet is almost Francophone-sounding (although translated phonetically it would mean 'ditch').

I'm going to the Stanley Keg! How did I not know about this thing when it's just down the street? Too bad this year's rosters aren't up yet...

I want some fucking hockey! (Saturday was such a tease).
