The "Erik Cole is ****ing awesome" Thread

NRG87 · 03-15-2012, 09:21 AM

Erik is a BAWSS. Next up for him: high fiving a goalie after going top titty on him at full speed then running him over.

I find it hilarious!
I have a serious question though. What would be the word if it was Subban who high-fived the ref?

Cole is performing way above my expectation ! If he played better in his first few games, he may already reach 30-goals mark.

In my book, he is our MVP (ahead of Price, DD and Pax).

People would be all over him for being a cocky little turd who doesn't take the game seriously enough, and that he needs to grow up.

If Erik Cole was any more awesome they'd have to call him Erik Cool

Lame puns

LyleOdelein · 03-15-2012, 10:54 AM

Cole is pretty much the Habs' version of the Fonz. Ayyy!

WordUp · 03-15-2012, 11:16 AM

Love this guy. Love his line.

Myron Gaines* · 03-15-2012, 11:56 AM

He's clearly the alpha male of this team

I think it's actually impossible for one to dislike Erik Cole.

NotProkofievian · 03-15-2012, 01:17 PM

I think that was the second funniest goal celebration I've ever seen, behind the guy in the SEL(I think anyways) scoring a goal and hugging an opposing player to celebrate.

All we need to do now is get our hands on RJ Umberger and we're set!

Cole is only 9 points away from equalling his career best 61 pts with 11 games to go. He's also just 3 goals away from equalling his best goal output at 30 goals. He has a chance to best both of those highs in just his first season with the Habs. We can absolutely say it is true, that his favourite and most productive place to play is Montreal. I love this guy.

Jafar · 03-15-2012, 02:18 PM

he is awesome , but we should trade him , would just be the right move to be honest even if it's emotionnally painful.

I know it's gotta be tempting on some level, but even if you want to rebuild from scratch, you need the guys to be well surrounded by good veterans.
Are we going to trade all the good vets and tank for a few years, never to come out of it like the Oilers or NYI?

Cole is a keeper. We destroyed our team enough.

Trade him for what? Nashville's 2014 2nd round pick?

I rather keep him, he will be our Gary Roberts. Only wish we got him like 5 years earlier.

Redux91 · 03-15-2012, 03:41 PM

Loved the signing from the second i HEARd coming ack from a golf game

Ladies and gentlemen, David Desharnais

No no no, he's exactly the kind of veteran you want surounding a young/semi-rebuilding team. Rebuilding teams that fail lack quality veteran presence. See Oilers, Blue Jackets.
