Killinger seen fishing, cardboard cutout used in place at practice.

[Peace 1,518]

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- Erik Killinger never reported to practice yesterday morning, instead they found a 'gone fishing' sign handing from his stall, thus prompting the team to use a tourist cardboard cutout of the Legion defender during practice... and unfortunately that extended into the two scheduled games the Toronto hockey team had against Seattle and Helsinki later that evening. Fans were lit with disappointment with the cardboard cutout, saying that he was literally worse than a pylon, and certainly preferred the real flesh and blood defender they were starting to get used to. 

"We have to punish him [Killinger] to the highest extend of our abilities," GM Peace said in a statement. "He didn't catch anything on a recently restocked lake with no one around, so we're confiscating his fucking fishing gear and issuing -- or rather engaging -- our thirty day embarrassment clause in his contract! He has to wear his silly fishing gear for those thirty days, and pose with the press to admit his failures as a catch and release fishermen."

"Utterly disappointing." 

The cardboard cutout registered an assist against Seattle.
