Default Captain Crunch's hockey book giveway

Hi all


I was rumbling through my storage room the other day and came across 10 boxes of old books that I haven't read in some time. I've decided to spread some literacy to the masses.


I have two books that are Calgary Flames based. So I decided to do a giveaway for fun.


The first book is



The second is Lanny's autobiography. The book above documents the Flames run to the 1986 Cup Finals. I would also be willing to throw in Mark Spectors Battle of Alberta Book because everyone needs toilet paper.


So the contest

in the spirit of the Oilers not making the playoffs . . . again, the winning contestant will post the best possible movie poster that they can think of that truly represents E=NG. This isn't about the best photoshopper, technical merits have no place here. This is all about the best and funniest piece of concept art.


This is a democracy, the person that receives the most thanks for their poster wins. If they don't live in Calgary, I'll ship the books, if they do, we can arrange a drop, or dead drop if you're into that spying stuff.


I think there has to be an expiry date on this contest, so the doors will close in a week, next Tuesday, whatever the date is.


Have fun




PS No I'm not dying yet, so no you can't win all of my stuff.

If you wish, let your creative juices fly.



Was hoping to see more old boy faces.


Remember all, this comes down to thanks

I have no photoshop skills - if someone wants to jump in on this one you can have the credit.

I don’t know how to photoshop or even embed. But I’m sure someone can do something with ‘Garbage Pail Kids’.

The folks who run the Oilers have been terrible for as long as we can remember. 'Psycho' and 'Tool' are good descriptions.

Oilers are like the Titanic. They look good until they hit the ice.

I've actually got that book as well, so no entry from me.

But, in the truest spirit of E=NG, I see Bruce Dowbiggn has published another book where he jerks off the NHLPA. I rather wonder who actually buys books from obvious shills.
