Thankfully for me, I was in the library as the Flyers blew a 3-1 lead in the 3rd period to lose the game 4-3 in regulation, however, one funny highlight did come from yesterday's game. And no, I am not talking about Johan Hedberg's save where he was blinded by his shirt. Instead, I am talking about the president of Comcast Spectacor, Peter Luukko, punking Steve Coates.
A couple weeks ago, Steve Coates, the rinkside analyst for the Flyers, was clipped with a hockey stick and cut across the forehead. The clip was not bad and the injury was not serious, however he was told that from now on he and all other rinkside analysts would have to wear a helmet rinkside for their own own safety. Or at least that's what he was told....
Not quite as good as sending Kyle Kendrick to Japan for a world famous hot dog eater, but funny nonetheless.
Oh, by the way, Coatesy, that helmet looked quite good on you. In fact, that first period was one of the best you've ever had! You really shouldn't have taken it off like that.....
