RE: the greatest ...
Bobby Schmautz ...RW, right handed...5'9" 172 lbs soaking wet.
aka.....the Surgeon....good Canadian kid from Saskatoon...tough and dirty...so there.
Some of his stats
1972-1973... 38 goals and 33 assists in 71 games.
1973-1974... 26 goals and 19 assists in 49 games.
Then he went to Boston for a long time and averaged about a point a game.
Then he went to Edmonton in 1980 and then played for the Colorado Rockies which I think was coached by Don Cherry at the time. Those were good times, but the last team Cherry ever coached in the NHL. The Rockies sucked, but they had spirit.
Then Bobby came back to Vancouver for his last year in the NHL and had 27 goals and 34 assists in 61 games. Pretty good stats for getting paid a fraction of what the going rate is today.
Bobby was my greatest Canuck.
And by the way the Sedin sisters are going to be on the same line as Mr. Carter who we picked up from Edmonton. I like Mr. Carter. He's got spirit and good hands and he's tough.
I can hardly wait to watch them on the ice together and hug each other after a goal. Interesting threesome. A black man and two lilly white pink cheeked twins from Sweden, all lovey dovey when they score a goal together. I'm lovin' it. The action starts this Wednesday.
Later,
bobsled.
PS.
I think Tiffany Fox is super duper....and just for fun let's all say it together...
Tiffany, Tiffany, Tiffany, Tiffany, Tiffany, Tiffany, Tiffany Fox.....Tiffany Fox!!
Bobsled is going to be in hibernation cause the Winter is coming... but he'll be watching, and lurking and having fun with all my good friends on PERB. And I like Crystal Fox too. I think it would be nice to have Crystal and Tiffany over for dinner one night. And we'd have ice cream for dessert beside the fire and I'd watch them share it together and kiss each other. I think that would be Yummy. But Bobsled is just dreaming....as he usually does. And now I must go. The Fall is upon us and there is much to do.... The time has come the Walrus said....to speak of other things....
