Hear Armstrong speak
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
In the unlikely event you’re not at Philips Arena tonight, you won’t want to miss the telecast of the Thrashers-Bruins game. Colby Armstrong will be wearing a microphone on his uniform, so you’ll be able to hear what gets said on the ice.
Well, you’ll get to hear some of it, anyway. The NHL wisely forbids live feeds from players wearing a wire. Even without Sean Avery on the ice, something might get said that’s not suitable for fans of all ages.
Anyway, I thought this would be a good place to enlist your help in predicting some of the things Armstrong will say or ought to say.
For example, “Excuse me, Mr. Chara, but that puck is mine,” or the old hockey favorite, “Have another doughnut.” (OK, so I’m dating myself with that last one. Google it if it doesn’t ring a bell.)
