That was so funny that I had to laugh out loud while at my sons floorball practice.
Other parenrs where looking at me... I don't think I should even start explaining

I don't know if I'm any good at English jokes, but this thread should be a sticky.

Do you guys Semin stopped producing goes he doesn't have an active stick?

Bob is just being more subtle. If you look closer he does say Semin is on unconditional waivers... I assume the waivers are some type of physical document?

On this side of the pond, it's just called floor hockey or ball hockey.

Floorball is different from floor hockey or ball hockey.

For a North American equivalent, it's more like broomball.

And no matter how hard I try, I can't make that into a semen joke.

In Sweden where floorball originated, it is called Innebandy or Indoor Bandy. I think there is a professional league as well.

Broom ball? Uh no, it's played with basically lighter hockey sticks with plastic blades.

This is what happens after a load of Semin jokes. Once you're done pumping them out, you're spent.

The real tragedy is his parents didn't give him some cool first name, like say "Max". Who knows where Semin would have ended up.

Isnt everything technically 'floorball?'

All sports require a playing surface and some sort of ball-like implement.

Got a chuckle out of this.. But basically floorball is floor hockey.. Except instead of a red ball, its a hard wiffle ball (still hurts like hell when you get hit in the nuts, I made a guy puke on the court from a wrist shot) and there is less stick hacking etc..

I've played a ton of both and they are both very fun for people that aren't the greatest ice skaters like myself.

The Habs seem to have lost their mojo since they got Semin out of their sweater.

They seemed to have a lot more spunk before he went down.

Perhaps if he gives them what they want while he's in the A they'll let him do his business where it really counts for something.





Sorry.
