Kerry Fraser to retire???

Post by netwolf »

Today's PG Penguins Notebook contains the following blurb at the bottom:
PG Pens Notebook wrote:
The NHL announced a new four-year labor agreement with the league's on-ice officials. The deal will pay first-year refs $136,000, with a maximum of $290,000 for veterans. First-year linesmen will be paid $95,000, with the most experienced earning up to $190,000. Also part of the contract is a stipulation for mandatory helmets for all on-ice officials starting next season and mandatory visors for all incoming refs and linesman in 2007-08.
Captain Hairdo cannot be happy about this. Unless of course, the league is giving him a special examption because his hair is more impact resistant than any hockey helmet known to man. :wink:

It's gotta be a rug. Wonder if he'll wear the rug under his helmet?

Under? He'll just paste it on top of the helmet.

You know, I never actually thought or realized that it might be a rug....

Yeah, like you have any stroke around here. :P

I did that on purpose to test out the Admin's QA monkey. It was a favor to him. :)

Besides, you're too busy with your diving crusade "nin-sense" to bother with the likes of me... :wink:

Yes, but in your sons case, *he's* right. :-)

I can't wait for the day you have to explain the whole 'if monkeys could code' thing to him :-)

On second thought, I'd love to have been there when you explained it to your wife :-)
