Jarome Iginla
While I was in Scotland I had a good time encouraging 
stormsearch in her newfound love of hockey. It's not as strong as L's (...yet) but after hearing her response to the Men's Gold Medal game the other day, I feel there is hope for her. *grin*
(There is something really wonderful about getting people in Scotland to fall in love with Hockey. It's just so... improbable.)
Anyway, we naturally got to talking about attractive hockey players. I am certainly one of the first to admit that most hockey players should really leave their helmets on. A lifetime of helmet hair and being knocked about on the ice does not a pretty face make. Yeah, sure I find them all super attractive when they are on the ice and skating - because skating is pretty and very awesome when it is done well (exhibit a - Speed Skaters). But I really don't find many hockey players to be attractive off the ice as well as on. (I feel there must be a similar effect with rugby players too...)
But there are a few exceptions. And some of them even manage to remain attractive after long careers. (Kirk Mueller is a good example... but I'm not going to talk about him today.) I maintain that when Jarome Iginla smiles, everything is right with the world. Naturally
stormsearch wanted proof. So instead of just sending the evidence to her I thought I would share with all of you lovely people as well.
And so I give you pictorial evidence of Jarome's amazing smile.

I love this commercial. But they've turned off the embed stuff. *unhappy face* Go watch it anyway. It always puts a smile on my face.
From the 2006 Olympics.
He's probably in this picture somewhere... but I just like it. Overtime win!!!
AND....
SURPRISE LUONGO! Because it wouldn't be right to have a post about the Captain of the Flames without bringing in my boy. Don't worry Roberto, I'm not going over to the Dark Red Side.
Happy Swedes!
And the Canucks who played in the Olympics. As I mentioned before. I kinda love this photo.
