The NHL All-Star Break is time for the players to relax. It’s a long, grinding 82-game season, after all, and by late January, teams are approaching 50 games. That’s a lot – and so, the perfect time for a break.
Some players, like Claude Giroux, still have a show to put on. Then there’s everybody else, who pretty much go on vacation. Whether they share their exploits or not are up to them – but this particular break, Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and Wayne Simmonds have already covered the entire Philadelphia Flyers team on what kind of social media posts to expect.
First, there’s the Bellemare:
Acknowledge your last game before the break began – which, in the Flyers’ case, went very well – and talk about how excited you are to get back at it. Pretty standard hockey fare.
Then, there’s the Simmonds:
a.k.a., “Look at what I’m doing. This is awesome. I love vacation.” It’s also the first time Simmonds has posted anything to his Instagram in nearly a year, which is kind of hilarious – he really wants to show off.
Happy All-Star Break!
