I ran across a blog today called Hitting the Post.
The author had a nice bit about José while talking about last night's game:
"If that ends up being Theodore's last game as a Wild player, I thank him. He came in and did a great job this season in what had to be a major pride-swallowing situation. I hope he finds a situation where he can be a #1 next year."
So thanks to the author (byline was NiNY) for that very nice sentiment. That seems to be a trend with wherever José finds himself playing. He always leaves a favorable impression with many of the fans. Even if they didn't know of him before or weren't sure how he would fit in with their team, he definitely wins a large portion of the fans over.
And I love that other people find out what we've known for a long time, José is one of the best in the NHL, on and off the ice.
José deinitely lives up to the "Stay classy" line. A truly class act.
José (Jo-say) Theodore (Thee-uh-dore) was drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in 1994 and played with them until March of 2006, winning the Hart and Vezina Trophies in 2002. He spent two and a half seasons with the Colorado Avalanche. José signed with the Washington Capitals in July 2008 where he played the next two seasons. He was awarded the Masterton Trophy in 2010. He played the 2010-11 season with the Minnesota Wild, and then played 2 seasons with the Florida Panthers.
i thought this was really cool until i scrolled down and realized you were a canadians fan and then i lost all respect.
ReplyDeleteDid you mean that I'm a Canadiens fan? Or are you talking about someone else? I'm not a Canadiens fan. Just a Theo fan.
