Something is terribly wrong with the groins in the NHL.
Connolly, Peters, Afinogenov, Kalinin, and Gaustad…..and those are just the Sabres groins. It’s an NHL-wide epidemic, and it’s devastating the groins of otherwise healthy young men. Enough is enough. I am here to speak out in strong advocacy of groins everywhere. We must find a cure. This disease must be stopped.
If you would like to donate time or money to the cause of groin health and research, please call 1-800-GRN-CURE. Volunteers are standing by. Please, don’t turn your back on these young millionaires. Right now, the groin trauma is contained to the NHL, but without a cure, your groin could be next.
Thank you for your support.

Ew.

Love it! You’re hilarious Katebits. Apparantly the Canucks have so many sore groins they’ve started yoga classes. Maybe soon the entire NHL will be yogi masters.
Hah! It looks like Jagr’s wearing a jersey that says “Tater” on the front. What a tater!
I volunteer to rub Gaustad’s groin whenever he wants. Seriously, magic fingers over here…
You know, shortly after the lockout ended, there was an absolute explosion of groin injuries, and a lot of people said it was because the rule changes had opened up the game, and guys weren’t conditioned for the high speed necessary in the “new” NHL. As I recall, this argument was undermined by the obvious fact that most of the guys getting injured had already been speed demons before the lockout.
I would like to point out that it was a BOY who took this conversation to a dirty place! Not me!
Sorry, forgot to close my tag…

What are you going for here, Sammy?! Can I help in any way?

Alix, I was about to say that I bet there would be fewer groin problems if NHL players started yoga…and what do you know, the Canucks are way ahead of me! I think that’s a really good idea.
The most famous temperamental groin belongs to Dominick Hasek. No one was ever sure if it really bothered him or he was just pissed off about something. Usually the latter.
Temperamental Groin? Sounds like a great name for a metal band…
I can see it now, annother annoying commercial during hockey games. 1st there was veins veins veins, then Brian Campbells exessive sweating commercial, who is going to be this years Sabres representative for Groin Centers of America?
Kate, do you watch The Office? Because I can totally picture a Katebits NHL Groin Awareness Celebrity Fun Run Race for the Cure.
If you don’t watch The Office, then the above is meaningless gibberish.

Usually.
Dom’s my fantasy goalie this season which means about six weeks into the season his groin is going to snap in two.
WHy “Ew”? I like that pic.
Glenn, Jaromir Jagr ALWAYS get an “Ew.” In fact, I can’t believe you even used his picture, Kate.
Well, I was looking for an “ew” worthy picture. Can’t go wrong with Jagr.
kate, you are a certifiable genius. i hereby invite you to the next Learning Lab. i’m sure they study groins.
I want to see a commercial about Brian Campbell’s hyperveinous excessively sweaty groin.
Those sabre boys just need to do more stretching like that responsible young man in the picture.
Courtney, I’ve seen the Sabres practice, and I assure you, all they do is stretch their groins. They hump the ice for HOURS at a time.
taking lessons from ‘canes in the fine art of groin-stretching (hope i’ll never have to say THAT again):
