I think a saint theme would be pretty cool. Hitch could be the patron saint of trapping. Oshie the patron saint of hustle ect.

Superheroes all the way, but there still needs to be some "boring" factor about them.

Sharks board, I've seen Star Trek Next Generation avatars, but nothing Star Wars. (Its supposed to be an homage to their new young players maybe.) Anyway, I don't think anyone is doing it, or has done it in my memory.

I think it would be meant to be more old school (original movies emphasized more) but I guess each person could do what they want.

I could see the "Return of the Jedi" logo say "Return of the Blues" as the unifying theme....and then run wild with it.

Light-Sabres, everyone!

Could you make Darren Pang into Yoda? I want that avatar!

I could see that. I went with Thing ultimately because I figured people would know him better.

I personally am a big Beast fan (dressed up as the big furry blue guy for Halloween once as a kid lol) so I had to find someone to fill the role.

Jackman-Wolverine is just too perfect lol

I really like this idea.

Not sold on Star Wars though.

I still think we do something more original.

Hitchcock the Hut? He lost weight, but how do you not make the comparison?

You forgot the big one...

Stewart-Magneto

While be can be a threat on the ice, his ability to block out Hitchcock's thoughts make him a true double edged sword.

Really not a fan of the star wars idea. My vote is definitely for the Marvel characters. The saints thing could be pretty fun too.

Head Coach
Ken Hitchcock is Professor X - Man with the plan.

Forwards
44 Jason Arnott is Colossus - When the time is near, he will be a force not to be reckoned with.
42 David Backes is Captain America - The Ultimate Team Leader, our fearless Captain!
21 Patrik Berglund is Ironman - Built to be pure domination.
26 B.J. Crombeen is The Punisher - Beware or be Punished!
36 Matt D'Agostini is Deadpool - Doesn't say much but is a lethal on the ice!
15 Jamie Langenbrunner is Cyclops- Brilliant man and a true leader. Great eyes on the ice.
10 Andy McDonald is Spiderman - Quick, nimble, and always around when you need him the most!
12 Scott Nichol is Angel - Small but quick. Able to turn on a dime like a bird in the sky.
74 T.J. Oshie is Thor - Son of Odin, bearer of Godlike qualities!
57 David Perron is Gambit - Beware of his powerful hands! Everything he touches is magical!
32 Chris Porter is Hawkeye - A keen eye, shooting the puck like an arrow with accuracy!
75 Ryan Reaves is The Hulk - Big and Powerful... Don't make him mad!
17 Vladimir Sobotka is Human Torch - Emotional and fiery!
20 Alexander Steen is Ghost Rider - Even Hell cannot control this man when he laces up his skates.
25 Chris Stewart is Magneto - Blocks out what the coach says and does his own thing... like global domination


Defensemen
28 Carlo Colaiacovo is Daredevil - Does risky maneuver and usually ends up hurt as a result. Maybe he is blind?
23 Ian Cole is Silver Surfer - Out of this world and often underrated with his power.
6 Kent Huskins is Venom - Dangerous and Deadly
5 Barret Jackman is Wolverine - Tough and Gritty with a temper!
27 Alex Pietrangelo is Mr. Fantastic - Nothing to say but... man isn't he Fantastic?!
46 Roman Polak is The Thing - Incredible strength and as solid as a rock!
4 Kris Russell is Carnage - Battling with Venom for spots on the roster.
22 Kevin Shattenkirk is Nightcrawler - Fast, smooth, and appears when you need him the most. BAMPH!

Goalies
1 Brian Elliott is Beast - His stats tell you why he is the beast!
41 Jaroslav Halak is Iceman - Cool and smooth, no matter what happens during the game.

For the record, I liked the zombie idea a lot...but it was done recently so I think we need something different.

Hitchcock as the Emperor would kick it. I want a picture of him shooting blue lightning out of his hands.

Perron wielding a lightSabre.

Pang could also be Salacious Crumb (the little rat guy that always laughed at Jabba's jokes).

I think we could have a poll, but are there any other besides the 2 main ideas?

Also, if there are enough of us....its possible both themes could be used (although I'd prefer if we showed some solidarity with picking one.)

BUT, I'm not sure anyone with Photoshop skills has spoken up yet. That could put a damper on this pretty fast.
