Frozen-Man 144 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) NHL Hall of Famer and fan favourite Lanny McDonald, NHL Hall of Famer and six-time Stanley Cup-winner Glenn Anderson, legendary enforcers Tie Domi and Bob Probert, two-time Stanley Cup-winner and Hockey Night in Canada analyst Craig Simpson, and two-time Stanley Cup-winner Stéphane Richer will go head-to-head in this fierce competition. These hockey heavyweights will be paired with some of Canada’s top female figure skaters in a competitive and thrilling pairs showdown beginning this October. How hilarious will that be, to see Proby and Domi go at it again for the title belt. Too bad the title belt will be best figure skater. I never saw either one of these guys being on a show like this but I'll bet it is entertaining. Edit: I wonder which one will look the best in a sequined jumpsuit.

I can see it now:"The Enforcers of Figure Skating"Bob Probert thought his efforts were worth a 7.5.Later on,he and Tie Domi twirled into each other at center ice,Domi had something to say about Probert's request for a 7.5,and just like the old days,they did a little "dance"at center ice,and for that "docey-do" alone,they received a 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
