NHL.com reports that Kevin Bieksa is getting a new 5-year, $23 million contract from Vancouver [link]. All together now… DUH.
Despite our general dislike of the Canucks, we’ve got a soft spot for Juice. He’s a total ham. We bet he cracks himself up the way we do, when no one else is around, about something that would make no sense if you had to explain.
Plus he scored 5 goals + 5 assists in the playoffs, and was not very nice to Jonathan Toews (or anyone else). The man is an absolute beast. He’s also in a long-term committed relationship with his hetero life partner, Ryan Kesler. So they both have good taste in guys.
Their kids are going to get married someday, and then it’ll be all… okay, we tried. We can’t think of a single movie where childhood friends grow up to get married. Isn’t that every movie? What is wrong with us?
Those are some good cooties.
Anyway, Juice is here to stay. And Vancouver will continue to pain us every year as a hockey juggernaut. At least they’ll never be boring.
Now I’ve got that Bryan Adams song in my head lol.! And I just realised why one of our good friends loves him so much. I might be a Nuck non-lover, but I’ll grudgingly admit that’s TASTY. Loving the Kesler stuff LMAO!
It is OFFENSIVE how good looking he is. Smart of Vancouver to draft him – especially after all the trade talks over last season. Seriously, I was hoping he could get traded so I could cheer for him. Damnit! Now I’ll keep having to hate on the Canucks and secretly (OK, not so secretly with this comment on the Internet) lust after him. And Kesler. I just wish they would be nicer to Jonathan Toews. Leave our boy alone!
The hottest Canuck! Glad he’s staying. 🙂
