what about a scarface theme

"say goodnight to the bad guy"
"make way for the bad guy"
"there's a bad guy coming through"

[Alicat]

Not a fan of the villains theme.

I've looked at a few other boards and it looks like that is the popular choice.

PRETTY SURE IT WAS THE FLIPPIN FLYERS.

You're right, the Flyers had a "flip the switch" theme for their playoff avatars.

I really like a Game of Thrones look myself, but I'm a sucker for swords and sorcery.

[ckyak]

Another bad idea from me.

[Lobster57]

I am a HUGE Song of Ice and Fire fan and I hadn't ever thought of using that for an avatar.

Chara = The Mountain
Thornton = Bronn
Marchand = Tyrion
Bergy = Littlefinger (lol)
Seguin = Jon
McQuaid = The Hound
Timmy = ?
maybe make one of Kessel as Varys (hahaha, so inappropriate)

Bergeron would have to be Ned Stark, he just seems like he'd be the most likely person on the Bruins to be honorable to a fault.

Chara is a damn good choice as the Mountain though.

[NinthSpoke06]

Anyone who tries to say they are villain besides us is kidding themselves. Only fits us.

But I need some more ideas so I can make some more concepts.

I've never read the SOIAF books (and I used to be a big fantasy nerd)... but I would think anyone named "Littlefinger" should be Ference. Just for the name and because of Ference's Famous Flying Fickle Finger of Fate.

[NinthSpoke06]

We could do a "Shanaban this...." theme.

true, i actually forgot about that event, i was going with the biting incident with Bergy.

Timmah the Enchantor.

( Don't ask him if the swallow is African or European or we'll be in trouble for the playoffs!)

Can you make one of him in his uniform holding a hockey stick? I think that would be a great pose

I laughed, but I cannot read that font at all.

+1 for the Breaking Bad look.

Dying at Marchand being Tyrion.


My Tuukka can be Sansa because I say so. Shes my favorite character along with Arya the bamf!

This is something i could get behind depending how it's done. The SOIF idea ...eh. People are saying the breaking bad ones don't fit or they don't know/like the show. i'd have to say the same about SOIF...whatever that is?

[BergyMeister]

I dunno it may just be me but I think the avy theme will be hard as i don't feel like the b's have had a defining moment this year.

[Goom 35]

Breaking Bad is an AMAZING show but I also don't get the correlation with a meth dealer and the Bruins.

The villain one is pretty cool. Maybe Chara as The Tall Man from Phantasm?

TBH I don't know what the correlation is either (breaking bad+ big bad?) I just grabbed one because I thought they looked slick. I think it was Brewin that made it up so I guess we would have to ask him.

For the record as I mentioned in the original avy thread I had never heard of the show myself b4 the avy was designed. So I'm not a BB fanboi trying to sell the avy.

Something like this. I really like the theme we had going for a while as while, such as this Horton one I'm using.

Something "bad ass".

Edit: Shanaban this would be awesome!

[TP]

As a villain, I always picture Chara's face on this dude

[Brewin]

I just went with Breaking Bad simply because of the similar alliteration involved and the fact that I like the show. No deep meaning or ties to the Bruins (other than both are interests of mine lol).

How about an old time hockey card theme? It could be a gif with only one stat listed on the back of the card - like goon, rat, savior, mvp, etc...
