How do you say cool in Finnish?

That is fine win.

that must have been exciting for the 14 people in the stands....

Funny how after MJ's death it's considered cool to spontaneously break out the Thriller dance. Prior to a few months ago it would have been uber-lame.

If that bothers you, just wait till Elton John dies.

Nobody likes a showboater, Helsinki Boy.

if your goalie isn't eccentric, he likely isn't all that good.

Uber Win

Ok, let me be the first to say it. The Thriller Dance has jumped the shark. I'm over it.

ghey

Begs to differ (^). Posted in '07.

That takes talent in all that equipment. And people are haters apparently..

HE MOONWALKED IN HOCKEY SKATES! THOSE THINGS ARE FLATTER THAN THE OLSEN TWINS!

LOL. Outstanding.

That was awesome...

/Goalie

ha-ha-guy: if your goalie isn't eccentric, he likely isn't all that good.

So very true...

Is this the thread where we all get on and say Bettman's an idiot?

/because I'm waiting to get my weekly fix...

Rectum damn near killed em: ha-ha-guy: if your goalie isn't eccentric, he likely isn't all that good.

Patty Roy says "Hi"

A number 1 star in the game and the hearts of those fans.

/starts typical hockey chant with goalie's name and claps

Just when you think hockey couldnt get any gheyer.

He didn't even hear the conversation...

Gonna have to disagree... happens at weddings all the time, and happened all the time before MJ died.

Agreed, my friend is an emotional goofball (eccentric? meh), and I'm an OCD, egotistical, antagonistic son of a biatch.

/yay goalies!

It would be easier in figure skates, I think, but you do want slippery shoes.

steamingpile: Just when you think hockey couldnt get any gheyer.

I think you've mixed up hockey and figure skating or baseball.

Patrick Roy disagrees. (new window)

First, it's a Finnish goalie, so that doesn't count as real hockey. Second, it's the lamest dance ever.

Jeremy Roenick approves (pops)

But to be fair, Alcohol is usually a factor.

Yeah we all know everyone in Washington hates Ovechkin. They're probably going to sell more tickets now that's he injured.

Damn, but do I hate Euro hockey billboards jerseys.

Did a better job than I could, and he's wearing 40lbs of foam and skates

Thriller was made prior to Jackson's effort to change himself into a white woman and molest countless boys. In that respect, it's probably the one "monumental" thing he's done that isn't tainted by his later actions, and as it's cool, because it's "retro". It can be overdone... but hardly over that line yet; that idiotic Beyonce dance thing has been far more overdone than Thriller dance.

I'm not a particular fan of anything Jackson made, but stepping aside to be objective, Thriller is a memorable bit that's embedded itself into our global culture... and as a workout for a goalie, whatever else you might say... it does work.

He did the "Thriller" dance? All 13 minutes of it? He had zombies and stuff? What the hell is the "Thriller" dance?

Jedekai: HE MOONWALKED IN HOCKEY SKATES! THOSE THINGS ARE FLATTER THAN THE OLSEN TWINS!

Oh, he did the Moonwalk, why didn't subby just say so?

Is the use of "uber" supposed to be ironic when talking about things that are lame?

It's been growing and growing -- there have been hundreds of Thriller videos on youtube the last few years.
Wedding parties doing a choreographed dance.
A whole mob of hundreds of Indian workers doing the dance.
Last year it was a big thing for high school marching bands to do the Thriller dance.
I'm not sure if his death increased the popularity or not.

A Rugby League player would have just tackled the bastard, slit his throat with his own skates and after writing in the ice 'he is not my son' in blood, would go after the piss poor audience.

Dance fails without leg kick...

Apparently someone has never had his skates 'rockered'

What? Ive seen the NZ All Blacks - the entire team mind you - perform dance routines prior to rugby matches.
