Huselius has steadily crept up to the status of being one of my FavouriteFlames. Check out this sick move from the skills competition yesterday:

Isn't it the Flames' SOP to just call Lombo's thing a "lower-body injury?"
ReplyDeleteTo the point where when they talked to Iggy post-game Saturday, and he called Lombo's charleyhorse a charleyhorse, I cringed.
Dude, you gotta show me the code you used to take out the header on the template but still keep your blog title broadcast! I spent like 5 hours friday nigiht trying to figure it out by trial and error...
ReplyDeleteNice vid by the way.
It took a lot of trial and error for me too, but eventually I nailed it. When I get home I'll add you to my MSN and walk you through it.
ReplyDeleteWow, I just watched that Huselius clip about ten times in a row...
ReplyDeleteVery impressive, I just wonder if he'd have the confidence to try it in an actual shootout. The way the boys play, I don't think it could hurt too much...
