This A is for Awesome.That's right, my friends! Hal Gill is back! Coming in at basically his previous salary is nice for the veteran with a ring, especially when pretty much everyone on the team has claimed how invaluable the man is to their unit. However, I'm actually amazed to hear some fans have taken the time to call in to radio shows and bitch about this. Who cares if he only has two goals. HE'S A DEFENCEMAN. And the Habs are lucky to have gotten him long after he's passed his awkward figuring it out stages of development. He's well seasoned. Yea, like a big delicious steak.
Perhaps these people need some reminding on why Hal Gill is so precious, so invaluable to the Habs? Here's a top 10 to jolt your memory:
10. Someone has to score against Florida.
9. He can see for miles and miles and miles and miles...
8. Babysitting PK doesn't come cheap.
7. He's Batman.
6. Might be Green Lantern too. Actually I'm pretty sure of this one.
5. The penalty kill "Log" formation. No one else does it better.
4. He does Reggie Dunlop proud.
3. Who needs speed when you got long legs and an extra long stick?
2. Biggest feet in the NHL blocks a shitload of pucks.
1. Another year of Hal Gill videos? WIN!
