it was 3-0 5-1

Apparently something like a "regular season ice hockey game" happened last Wednesday at approximately 8 PM PST, but I was too busy "exercising" and "being at an ice hockey practice" and "failing to score a goal unless it was a garbage goal" to watch. However, I will recap this game as best as I possibly can.

Seven Ways to Be Late To Practice

Seven Ways to Be Late To Practice
Yikes! This season has seen a lot of hockey players arriving late to practice. What is it about 2014-2015? Electrical disturbances shutting down alarm clocks? A distaste for breakfast foods? A strange overpopulation of crows? Overwhelming, soul-crushing ennui? Any of those are completely valid reasons for missing a day of work or school if you're a normal person, but we all know that hockey players are above things like social responsibilities and the "law."

Anyways, we've compiled a list of ways that any hockey player could be late to practice. If you aren't a hockey player, imagine you are! If that's difficult, here's a tip: imagine you have a lot more money and a lot more leeway than you have ever had in your entire life. Phew, that should get you in the mindset!

Nice: 69th Overall

69, a number so nice, our own mcoles69 uses it in her screen name. While spending time thinking about how nice the number 69 is, I came up with a question. Who are the greatest NHL players to ever be picked 69th in the NHL Entry Draft? Surely the nicest number would be graced with the nicest players to ever play in the National Hockey League. Well, unfortunately, most of the best players are picked in places like #1 or #2, but luckily for us, there were enough real hockey players to let me make this list: the top 10 hockey players who were picked 69th overall in the NHL Entry Draft.

Hello, and welcome back to Fake Or Gay. Today, we'd like to present an article that one of our founding members is exceedingly proud of. As you may know, there are multiple hockey players who, as veterans, are those who younger players look up to. What you may not know, however, is that these veteran players are not only role models for young players, but role models for all of us. You don't need to tell us about these hockey players you secretly keep framed photos of in the locked bottom drawer of your desk. It's alright. Everyone knows already.
