Some more Holik humor

we should just turn this thread into the official Holik humour thread. After the Ottawa game a few weeks ago, I was getting Zach's autograph as Bobby was getting into his truck when he said this:

Bobby: "Zach, stay away from the coach."

Zach: "Why's that?"

Bobby: "Because, he changes you."

am I the only one that's not catching the humor here? :blink:

I had been waiting for someone to make a unibrow joke about him getting hit in the head, and then, there it is, out of the mouth of Holik himself:

Bobby Holik was still joking about the shot from teammate Mike Mottau Sunday that hit his helmet and eyebrow before deflecting into the net for a goal.

"It was only Motts. Can you imagine if it was someone with a harder shot?" Holik joked.

Mottau loved it.

"I think it's hilarious," the defenseman said. "I said just the opposite. I said it's good he has such a big head. He said my shot parted his eyebrow. Hilarious."

The shot parted his unibrow, lol! That was some fine self-deprecating humour Mr. Holik.

I actually used to hate the crap Holik always said. Back in the day he used to call the team out all the time, and he didn't really back it up with his own play. He seems to have mellowed a bit and have more fun with the press this time around. His presence in the room wasn't universally lauded when he left last time. I'm sure PK can give a long involved psychological explanation ;)

You know, I'm happy - no Stevens of course :evil: but my basic concerns are all being addressed as well as they can be. I think Madden with Rolston was nice - just to get Madden's skates moving so he doesn't have to think so much.

and Holik is being funny...

Sutter is making me really pleased - I feel we as fans are on some solid ground and I don't think I've felt that way for a while. I'm not excited about Shannahan - but that's Lou's trip - no big deal in any event. I'd rather have gotten Neids back if we had to bring someone back into the fold -- but whatever.

oh wait a sec... I'm the dog... I forgot. Yeah well... whatever - it's good to be a Devils fan.
