pxzero 65 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 He can't skate. He can't hold the puck. He sure as hell can't shoot. Yet somehow, newcomer Dirk Firkley has become an integral part of the struggling Ottawa Lynx VHLM team. The rookie RW was drafted last week in order to fill roster spots and take Lynx mascot off the ice and back into the stands - a decision that was met with more than a little controversy. "At least we recognize the mascot," one drunk Lynx fan complained. "What sort of name is Firkley anyway?" Despite the questionable name, Firkley has shown incredible promise, bumbling two goals in his first two games. Leading Lynx scorer, Bobby Ricky, commented on Dirk's unique play style, suggesting that hockey skills were learnable, but his obvious, innate luck is something that a player has to "just have". "Besides," Ricky mentioned, tapping the side of his nose, "If he has trouble improving, I can at least teach him how to ski." frescoelmo 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/13123-dark-horse-for-the-lynx/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
