I actually ended up buying Monahan's 4Runner after he had it about 6 months I think. Nice truck - all done up with a lift, tires, blacked out and everything. All I got was a signed jersey, the truck wasn't signed lol - that must be an Edmonton thing haha.

I only bought it as I get a lot of vehicles from the particular dealership and was in the market for one of those, not because I particularly cared who drove it.

That was actually Shawn Monahan's 4 Runner. He's a periodontist.

There'd be an arrangement between the dealership and the team, no doubt.



Nothing like when the Leafs had the Canadian Tire CEO as part of their pitch to Stamkos basically outlining a sponsorship deal, though. All the free car parts and floor mats he could fit into a shopping cart in 2 minutes.

And an official Albert autographed $20 Angus McTire Canadian Tire money.

The Oilers don’t have a picture with McDavid helmetless?

Bret Hart and the WWE can pretty easily demand his likeness be taken down.

Anyone stop to think that the reason why that was posted was to troll Calgary fans? Seems to be working. Don't give this the attention they want.

Is that Tim goddamn Curry?

Trolling Calgary fans by posting a poorly photoshopped, semi homoerotic gloating photo of their only two NHL caliber players, pointing out that even though those two can win awards the team STILL doesn't have a hope at advancing to or through the playoffs? The fact that they've spoofed a legendary Calgary family to achieve this is just gravy- Edmonton doesn't have a successful duo to model after.
I think that's a self-own.
