Love Is Love: A Couple Of Goalies Got Engaged In The Handshake Line Of A Men's League Hockey Game

It's 2024. If a couple of goalies want to spend the rest of their lives together, then who are we to tell them that they can't? I'm sick and tired of all the bigotry in the world full of people saying goalies are a bunch of fucking freaks and should be locked away in cages. Don't get me wrong, they are definitely freaks. You have to be out of your damn mind with so many screws loose in order to willingly stand between the pipes and have people launch clappers at your head all game.

Does the fact that there's likely to be a child one day who has the DNA of TWO goalies coursing through their veins? It's certainly alarming to say the least. Who knows what kind of sick, twisted behavior that kid will be capable of displaying. But these two stil deserve love just as much as the rest of us. 

A couple of closing remarks I want to throw in here but don't really fit the flow of the blog so I'll just list them--

1) The hockey handshake line in the Stanley Cup Playoffs is easily one of the best tradition in sports. It's always great to see how much mutual respect the best players in the world have for each other after a hard fought series. But you can only see the same thing so many times before it starts to get a little old. Which is why I think someone needs to take a play out of this book and propose to an opponent next season. Maybe Matthew Tkachuk can propose to Mitch Marner after the Panthers win that first round matchup in 5 games or something like that to spice up the 'yoffs. 

2) On a similar note, this is always how I envisioned The Mighty Ducks trilogy to end with Goldberg getting married to Julie the Cat. 

3) What do you think the answer would have been if that game went differently and the dude's team won 8-3? You think she's still saying yes after a shit pumping like that? Something tells me no.
