Rink Rover

I'm a fourth-line academic who leaves it all in the Word document after every shift. I typically play an energy role by picking up the odd shift in the lecture hall to rest my tenured linemates. As the Bard's bodyguard, I'm often seen as a goon by other scholars. I mostly post images from my hockey humour blog: rinkrover.ca Follow me on twitter: @RinkRover

Robbie Hart: What're you doing here?

  Daniel Alfredsson: I told you last night. I realized I was wrong, and I want to play in Ottawa. I can learn to deal with the fact that the Sens are just another hockey team, not a Stanley Cup contender. 

  Robbie Hart: I don't want you to lean to deal with that. That's not how NHL contracts work!

  Daniel Alfredsson: I'll talk to you about this when you're feeling better.

  Robbie Hart: Hey, psycho! I'm not going to feel better about this. It's over. So please get out of my Ottawa Senators jersey before you jinx the team and they never win the cup or relocate again!!!

Will "The Hangover 4" star the 2013-14 Blackhawks, or will Chicago be the first team to repeat in the 21st century?

Proposal for a new Olympic flag.

Metroids love life energy, but they also love pizza [❤]

I feel that I've missed my calling in life: I should have been born as a pizza-eating Metroid.

As contract negotiations drag on, Cody Franson is split between listening to his conscience (Carlton the Bear) and his id (N.J. Devil).

How has this never been a thing?

Hockey terms: "Gorgonesque" is an adjective used to describe a goal that's so ugly, it turns the net minder to stone.

Prospect prediction: the Leafs' Ryan Rupert, currently playing for the OHL's London Knights, will make Brad Marchand look like a Care Bear.
