Canada (WHA) vs Red Army. Howie strolls into the lobby with a big stoogie in his mouth, a suit & tie, and a pair of sneakers on. He was/is a classic. During our time in Russia Howie would hold court in the lobby every morning telling us what the Russians were doing behind the screens. Yup, Gordie Howe found a secret 'mike' in his room last night. The Russians were listening for our strategies. It was all cold war stuff at its best. What a memory. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jett has the same sort of stiff upright playing style as Bieksa, he has the same unflappable overall look as Bieksa....he hits like Bieksa.... Jett even takes DoG penalties by firing the puck over the glass like Bieksa....BUT....he has to learn how to do the Bieksa "Smirk" after taking a penalty...once he can do that then he will truly be KB2...

I think the crucial test for Jett Woo is whether or not he can successfully incorporate “milk hot dogs” into a sentence during an interview. If he can manage that feat, then KB2 confirmed. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrizzlyAdams Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Love the play he makes on Tkachuk @ 1:46 So subtle, broke up the US forecheck, and allowed Canada to exit the zone 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so unique and distinguishable from the rest of the Dman invited to Canada's summer show down roster, as all of them are puck moving dman. Woo was the only one that brought physicality and in your face mantra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome lol. Better yet though would go something like this " Woo dumps Pu in front of the net........now Foo comes in and trips over Pu trying to get to Woo. Now Woo and Foo lands on Pu can you believe it" I can hear Shorty now..... Don Taylor would be in his glory with something like this.

Well, it won’t be against half-grown kids any longer, an advantage he has today. Lets hope he also continues to grow and maintain that aspect of his game, which is a most welcome addition to the Dcore’s composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
