You've Forgotten About Mother's Day

PrintFriends, I here to give you a friendly reminder. This Sunday is Mother's Day and you've forgotten all about it. You haven't gotten your mom anything. No bouquet of flowers, no box of chocolates, no fancy dinner plans, nothing. You've really slacked off. Fortunately, you have two days left to still get her something. In case you're stumped, have a look at what some NHL players are getting their mothers:
Vesa Toskala got his mom a Prada bag with his initials on it.
Chris Pronger made his mom a piece of elbow macaroni art.
Daniel Carcillo gave his mom a gift certificate for laser hair removal.
Patrick Kane rented his mom a limo for the day.
Brian Gionta got his mom a Blu Ray copy of The Wizard of Oz.
Daniel Alfredsson is taking his mom to the circus.
Tomas Kaberle got his mom Jeff Carter and a 1st round draft pick, but then thought twice about it and returned them.
Carey Price got his mom carton of Marlboro Red 100s.
If you know some other gifts that NHLers are giving to their mothers, post them in the comments. Links after the jump.

Linky goes to the guy’s YouTube profile, which is itself worth a gander, on the off chance that you are interested in six thousand lists of this guy’s top 5 favourite everything and its related thing of lesser importance. Don’t miss the part where he chirps at the “Pittsburg” bandwagon fans, then points out that he himself “used to be” a Pittsburg fan. The Penguins are still listed in his Top 5 favourites (no doubt placed punitively at position number 4 for having the temerity to select “Skidney Cryingsby”).
You couldn’t make this shit up.

Should the anthems be removed from televised broadcasts?
I’m of the group to just do away with them.
I liked the olympics, the teams are introduced, skate a lap or two with some music on, and bam! face off.
Besides most of the signers who they get to do the anthems suck, so it would be a favour to the countries to not have their anthems slaughtered hundreds of times a year.
Didn’t hockey night in Canada already do this a lot for the Leafs this year? Just have a commercial go right up until puck drop? I know they did it at least a few times.
They would miss them, in CBCs case it was because of the aforementioned anthem commercials, whereas on Sportsnet I think it was because of their little electricy “Starring Jonas Gustavsson, Starring Mikhail Grabovski, Starring….” thing, no?
Either get rid of them from the broadcast, or just have the music and no singing like international hockey. Makes the game seem more important or something…. I’m weird.

that only works if everyone is singing the same thing. In places like Montreal and Ottawa when you have half the crowd in French and half the crowd in English, it just sounds like a muddled mess.

it’s because it’s not unified, so it sounds like muddled confusion. It’s why I still don’t know the canadian anthem—every time it was half in English, half French.

On the last weekend of the regular season I went to the Bruins game in the afternoon. Rene Rancourt sang, Bruins clinched a playoff spot, life was good. Then I went to the Revolution home opener. Rene Rancourt sang again, and the Revs won that night as well.

you clearly read wrong sites ;)
Should the anthems be removed from televised broadcasts?
in league level yes, because for example NHL has tons of foreign players so the nationality thing is rather irrelevant, i’d say.
in national team games they’re ok because the countries in question are actually involved

I just want San Jose to win the Cup
There is no "off-season" for Leafs Nation - Maple Stir-up
as much as i despise the southern teams, i just want the cup as far away from here as possible. Im not jealous of the success teams are having right now, im just sick of having to see my habs and hawks friends at the bar. They talk to me as if they are playing the leafs, i cant count how many times ive had to tell them i dont give a fuck if their team is playing, they arent playing the leafs so dont talk to me like they just beat my team…

I hear you man. I was ready to throw my remote through the TV when the dirty Habs scored those 2 goals in the third. I just changed the channel because I couldn’t watch anymore and I felt my blood pressure rising.
If Pittsburgh and San Jose don’t both make it to the Cup final I’m going to have serious anger management issues trying to watch the rest of the playoffs.

So...
Last night they interviewed Jean Beliveau during the intermission and it got me thinking: Barring a (god forbid) cup win by the Habs, how can Montreal fans truly be proud of this team? Their strategy is “Hope that Halak bails us out, makes 50 saves and if we are lucky we can get some breaks and win the game”. Think about that for a second. These gutless punks are Montreal Canadiens. Can you imagine Jean Beliveau or Maurice Richard playing that kind of game?
But what can you expect from a fan base who, with 100 hundred years of history so deeply intertwined with french-canadian identity, sings an english soccer chant?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_chant

Republic of Ireland – “Boys in Green”, “You’ll never beat the Irish”, “The Fields of Athenry”, “Ole Ole”, “Amhran na bhFiann”
