A Pissed Off Jamie Benn Is One Of The Most Frightening Human Beings On The Planet
I'll tell ya what--I feel terrible for Nikita Zadorov. Because it's gotta be pretty difficult to take anybody seriously in those Stars uniforms. Jamie Benn looks like he just came back from a 5th grade laser tag birthday party. And not that there's anything wrong with laser tag. I bet it would actually be an unreal way to spend a Saturday afternoon. But you can't be playing in the NHL with a sweater that looks like a 10-year-old's created team on Xbox. You just can't.
But don't let the shitty sweater fool ya. In fact, that horrible jersey may have fueled Jamie Benn's anger even further since he knew he'd have to overcompensate for the brutal look. And unfortunately for Zadorov, he found himself on the wrong end of that overcompensation.
My goodness. And that was with his left! Just imagine the damage that Jamie Benn could have unleashed here if his right was free. He's listed at 6'2", 210 lbs. But when he's pissed off? Jamie Benn is no less than 6'4", 240 lbs. And on top of all that, this man is still rocking an Easton bucket with no visor. You can't fuck around with a guy like that. I'm pretty sure Zadorov wasn't even in the league yet by the time that Easton stopped producing hockey equipment under their own brand name.
Jamie Benn and Wayne Simmonds. Just a couple of guys who are making sure that these young whippersnappers out there these days know how the game used to be played.
