Hey HW members!!

i received my *La Presse* this morning and there was the 3rd special habs review in it and there was this lil habs cartoon image for xmas... i personally like it very much, it's kinda funny and original... so wanted to share it with u all!!

quality is so-so coz i snap it with my camera and put a frame around so it looks a bit better...

well hope u guys will like it!!!

nice, but...

why does koivu have a big perm?

and why are niinimaa and plekanec segregated from the rest of the guys?

cause there jewish.....and why in hell isint koivu holding Carbonneau's hand???but very nice...i like

yeah... i wonder too.. propétia?


wanted to see muller on it too

and what about youppi? where is youppi????

Thanks bebe that is wicked.

you know that for a fact ??

I always wondered who was jewish in the league..don't really know why, though..

any scientologists !!???

no not a fact..

Then why say it?

Is the one between Kovy and Gainey supposed to be Carbo? Looks more like Muller to me.

it was suppsed to be a joke...god some people here take themselves way too serious
Niinimaa is finnish and plekanecs is fricking Czech...how many jewish Czech's or fin's do you know?

Franz Kafka. But that was clearly a joke, h in the b, and a funny one.

I think Mathieu Schneider is the highest-profile Jewish hockey player right now. Honestly, the only one I can think of.

Brad Richards is clearly a Scientologist. Or maybe a devotee of the Bangalore branch of Kali-Durga worship. I can't decide which.

How mature...



As mentioned already, there's Scheider, plus a couple more, although their names escape me at the moment.



Regardless, it was in bad taste.

glad to see some people with a bit of humor in 'em... but im positive that there are many other jewish players in the nhl

How can you tell?

Seen them in the shower?!

yes..infact i did....in all seriousness i didnt mean to offend anybody by that "bad taste" joke....i love the jews

That picture is GOLD!

Happy <insert reglious holiday of your choice here> everybody!

No one here realised that Evgeni Malkin is Jewish?

And habs in blood, u obviously dont travel much, cuz Prague (which is in the czech republic) had one of the biggest jewish communities in europe before WWII. and theyre are still lots of czech jews out there, and ive been to prague and they have the oldest Synagogue in europe i believe, very nice. You should check it out.

and ill say it again, Malkin is Jewish

Gainey has a staple through his head like a real Pin-up!!

as a Jew I had absolutely no problem with what Habs in the Blood said... I actually thought it was kinda funny.

Haboholic - where do you get the Malkin/Jewish stuff? I've never heard that before.

Yeah, there used to be jews in Prague... not so much anymore... Is the synagogue even still really active?

ive been to italy tough....but not prague...going to thailand...but not prague....been around...perhaps....but not in prague


thank you...at least i know it was somewhat funny...heck Jerry Seinfeld is my favorite Comedien...i know im no Jerry Seinfeld...but still i think Riker put it in best : Happy <insert reglious holiday of your choice here> everybody!

I'll just stick to wishing everyone Happy Holidays!

Or Happy Festivas!

I haven't decided.

I'm laughin.......

North America is far too P.C.

We go from taking "Holiday Trees" (formerly known as Christmas Trees) down in airports to not being able to say things in this forum that are in NO WAY offensive.

Next we'll be saying "You can't trade Samsonov because it will offend the great people of Moscow"

People need to relax.

...

i just wanted to share a HABS XMAS IMAGE...

i think i made a mistake...

Never called the comment offensive.



I have no idea, I don't know any Fins or Czechs. I didn't say it was offensive, I was simply asking why you said it if you didn't know it to be true. I had no clue it was supposed to be a joke. I thought you were just making stuff up for the hell of it.

No worries Fanpuck, I wasn't saying anything about any of your comments actually.

Um, if u look it up, on wikipedia or anything on malkin it mentions hes jewish.

He actually looks jewish, and malkin is a pretty jewish name as well.

um, about prague, ya all those synagogues are still around, its actually a big attraction there. In one area theres like 5 synagogues and memorials, and a creepy looking cemetary with old stacked up tombstones (jews were only given a certain amount of land so they had to bury bodies over each other).

ive been around europe, and i honestly think prague is one of the most beautiful cities ive ever seen. I would recommend anyone to visit the Czech Republic, especially with all those castles around! i love castles

I just didn't like the negative implications of "Jewish" and "segregated."



The Czechs made crappy absinthe though...

For the rest of us?

wikipedia sometimes says it. There is a revert war going on there. A quick look at the discussion page makes it pretty apparent he is not.




you can't be serious. He looks jewish? C'mon!


Also, Malkin is not necessarily a jewish name.

I dont see how that link on the discussion page can be considered a reliable link at all. Not that wikipedia is any more reliable, but u have people monitoring the sites and checking if the information is credible 24/7.

Im from montreal, and am jewish, theres a big jewish community here, and i can tell u, he definately looks jewish! 100%

The name isnt necessarily jewish i agree, but Malka is a jewish name, and i guess thats why people think Malkin is jewish as well.

But anyways, useless debate, hes either jewish or hes not, i guess one day he'll come out of the closet hehe, but its definately not entirely impossible.

I wonder if you had said Muslim instead of Jewish... would we be now scared Habsworld gets attacked!

You bunch of Christians!!!

GO GO!

nice pic - thanks bebe

but, this debate should be moved to the lounge where i can't find it!

you bunch of humans.


(is that P.C. enough?)

I concur - thanks bebe, I wouldn't have seen this otherwise, and it's an amusing li'l picture.
