Scott Hartnell: Chris Pronger's Puck Stealing Accomplice

by Travis Hughes on Jan 27, 2011 1:12 PM EST in 2010 NHL Playoffs

It's a slow news day (pre-emptive) in part due to the snow and in part due to the All-Star Break, but we got this tip from a reader today and since there's nothing else to talk about, we might as well throw this up.

Chris Pronger's puck-stealing was a story again last week thanks to the Flyers' return to Chicago. That spurned BSH reader Matt Delisle to look back at the video following Game 4. He found this.

That's Hartnell picking up the puck after the game and handing it to Pronger. INTRIGUE!

Alright, since this isn't really a story, let's turn it into a caption contest. Maybe Scott's actually proposing here? We may never know.

“Man I hate these jerks” – a fan of any other NHL team.

“I love these guys” – Flyers fans.

“I, as Jesus, bestow upon you this puck so you may laugh yourself to sleep at night while the Blackhawks cry over the fact that they don’t have it.”

Yeah, no use in trying after that one. Well done Sneech.

OK, normally I let most grammar stuff go, but this is the third time in the last week or so that I’ve seen ‘spurned’ used on this site when the writer meant ‘spurred’.

Can everyone please stop that? Thanks.

It was the first thing I noticed as well. Not that I want to pick on Travis’ grammar…..

Chris, will you elbow me?

Hartnell (Darth Maladroit): Master, I have a gift for you.
Pronger (Darth Vicious): Excellent my young apprentice, you have learned well. Now we will show them the true POWER of the dark side!
