Huge post today, brothers! Hopefully this will help convince the mods that this word should be banned on the grounds of overuse, unfunny jokes, and anemic vocabularies.

The work ethic and energy has to carry over, though, in order for it to happen. It'll be a by committee effort to win more games than we lose.

Downie would get you some more truculence.

Another comic in our midst! At least news of the jihad is spreading. The sun will come out tomorrow and tomorrow and the next day until the t-word is stricken from this website.

Some added truculence and help on the RW. Agitator and can still play hockey and score some goals.

I like Hunter Smith and I will give his family a pass here since they're not aware of the t-word's choking overuse. Left shirt should read "Pugnacious", however. Tense fail.

Bennett will have to have some kind of silly,crazy,######ed,truculent and unreal 9 games NOT to go back to Kingston under this regime.
