He shoots, he scores

In honour of the imminent end of the NHL season, a hockey-themed post featuring three photos in my collection that inadvertently bear the same title: He shoots, he scores.
Above, a likeness of legendary Montreal Canadien Jean Béliveau.
Below, a table hockey game in the Terminal D arcade at Calgary International Airport.
And at bottom, a festive display at Complexe Desjardins in Montreal.

He shoots, he scores

He shoots, he scores

This chicken is cheering for everyone, it seems.
Back in the fall, dressed up for former Stampeders QB Henry Burris …
Hard days for Hank
… and today, playing the role of Flames net minder Miikka Kiprusoff.
Kipper's chicken
The ultimate bandwagon jumper. In a good way.

Apparently, we live and breathe men’s hockey. These guys are two of thousands of very happy Calgarians who spilled out onto 17 Ave. S.W. Sunday afternoon after Team Canada defeated Team USA in overtime, winning the game 3-2 and scoring this country’s 14th gold medal of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

Woo hoo!

And here’s a happy gal stuck in traffic. She doesn’t seem to mind.

We're No. 1
