My rental car* has XM radio, so I spent all my driving time listening to NHL (that would be hockey) talk. They did an interview with a player named Mike Commodore who signed with the Columbus Bluejackets. The radio guy conducting the radio was trying to get him to take the number 64 for his jersey number just so the back of his jersey said "COMMODORE 64". That would be frickin' hilarious and he'd be my new favorite non-Red Wing player if he did it. He said he'd considered it, but didn't want to introduce himself to his new team with a joke.
So the best name/number combination remains Jordin Tootoo who wears 22 (Tootoo... two two... get it?). He's not my favorite non-Red Wing because he's a fucking prick.
So my favorite non-Red Wing remains Jonathan Towes of the Blackhawks. Additionally, Alexander Ovechkin of the Capitals won some points in my book because he got his college degree in Russia even though he's signed to make nine million dollars a year through 2013. Also, because of this goal:
Also, the Red Wings signed one of the best available players in Marian Hossa to a one-year contract. They just won the Stanley Cup and then they get BETTER. It'll still be hard as fuck to repeat, but I like their chances.
*Oh, I'm traveling unexpectedly. I'm in Omaha.
