You may have missed it a few months back when some intrepid hockey fans discovered the entrance video the University of Alaska hockey team used during their 2007-2008 season was unleashed on the masses by Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy.
Chances are good, however, that you didn’t miss it and you were left speechless by it wondering how the universe could survive such an onslaught by one of the arctic’s fiercest creatures. Well it’s time to strap on your Depends because the Alaska Nanook is back for revenge and he’s taking it out on Mother Earth. I’m sure you’ve seen the PSA with former ER star Noah Wyle talking about global warming and it shows a polar bear on an ice floe that’s melting.
This particular bear of the tundra isn’t having any of that shit and he’s taking aim on the rest of the CCHA as well as the rest of Planet Earth itself. Worse yet? He’s developed a Voltron-like ability to produce a light sabre-ish hockey stick from his paws and he can fly a fighter jet.
If this is the route evolution is taking, we’re better off melting down those ice caps in the first place. Call it a “preemptive strike” by the human race.
That said, after watching this video I’m ready to run through a wall. Let’s play hockey.
I just have to wonder what their fans, who see it week after week, think of it. Just because Alaska is far away from the lower 48 doesn’t mean its residents, especially those working or studying at the university, have no taste or class.
I am pretty sure Napolean Dynamite makes the videos for Nanook hockey. EPIC!
oh dear god that’s frightening.
