What's the story behind the original. Is she famous? It's kind of hilarious if she isn't and now some random guy has made an exact replica of her video, lol.

Don't know the story of the gif itself, but she's aware of it and seems to like it. Googling a bit around about her seems to indicate that she's a stand up comic, actress and writer.

My Dad was one of the Veterans who was on the ice for the pre-game ceremony. He's 95 years old.

One of the best PGT's ever! Love the OP and great game, although it's a bit of a fire drill in our own end at times. Due to Detroit being tenacious no doubt, but great entertainment. Still surreal that Jaromir Jagr is a Calgary Flame ... Love it!!! The crowd reaction gave me chills! GFG!!!!

So still a teenager when WWII started. Crazy.
Funny enough there was a post on Reddit the other day that catalogued complaints about youth over the centuries, and there was one from 1938 that would have called your dad and his peers' generation as 'wimpy' and 'not inclined to physical activity.'
Puts things into perspective.

She might be more confused when she finds out Steve's is the less offensive gif!

He joined the Navy when he was 20 years old - in 1941. He was an old guy (32) when I was born.

If you want some real NSFW, she used to model as Lauren Elise.

And in their arenas. I've always appreciated the Red Wings fans when I enter hostile territory.

You gotta give her credit for having a good sense of humour.

Stone is outplaying Hamonic, IMO. Would deal him for what we gave up for him, frankly. Will give him more time. Just haven't been impressed so far.

Can't give up on him too quick. I do agree he hasn't been great, But remember how Dougie played his first half year or so here ? Can't give up on him yet, especially considering what we paid for him.

Not to mention we looked noticeably less defensively responsible as a team as soon Hamonic left. I don't know what the stats say but the eye test says he's a stable defensive defenseman in our top four compared to when Stone is in there.

Stone is better offensively than Hamonic. He has a shoot-first mentality. I think Kulak might even add more points in his career totals if he has Hamonic as his partner. Hamonic would allow us to have a dangerous 3rd pairing.

I've wondered about Hamonic on the 3rd pairing as well.
With the way GG likes to spread the ice time around it could be a good option.

Stone, in my humblest of opinions, was always a better fit for Brodie. Hamonic is the perfect guy for a #5 like Kulak or Kylington in the long run. Which may inevitably be the case next season or earlier given Kylingtons play on the farm.
