Moment of Zen: Hockey

Jack Hughes (New Jersey Devils)
Here’s a question for my fellow southern transplants to the frigid north: have you found an appreciation for how hot hockey players are? I know nothing about hockey, but I’ve known a few hockey players since moving to Vermont, and they are a sexy bunch. Growing up in the South, I always found football and baseball players hot, and while they have football and baseball up here, hockey is to the North what football is to the South.

Nick Schmaltz (Arizona Coyotes)

Ryan Murray (Free Agent/formerly of the Edmonton Oilers)

Sidney Crosby (Pittsburgh Penguins)

Alexander Wennberg (Seattle Kraken)

Elias Lindholm (Calgary Flames)

Last but not least, Tyler Seguin, who I have always thought was hot even before I knew anything about hockey except that Tyler Seguin is hot!

Wow, so many sexy French players to choose from! Antoine Keller, Antoine Roussel, and even though retired, Sébastien Bordeleau.

Several years ago, I subscribed to the "ereader unlimited" program for my ereader. I have been surprised at how many "gay hockey player" stories there are in that program. Like you, I'm from the Southern US, so hockey isn't a sport kids play here (no ice rink).

Hockey is a Canadian sport and all those USA's team came after an expansion many years ago.

In the initial NHL back in the mid 20th century the Amewrican teams were form NYC, Boston, Detroit and Chicago. There were then 6 teams with Montreal and Toronto.

BTW the Stanley cup was named ro honor Canaadian Lord Stanley who was the father of hockey in Canada.

For cute young hockey players you should go see those recents ones and those playing for Montreal Canadian like Nick Suzuki, Jurav Slavskovsky, Logan Mailloux to name only few.

Connor Bédard is also quite cute.

Too bad we cannot see them in the shower after a game.
