**Gold Division Photo Day Reminder**
Alright, Gold Division beauties—photo day is this Wednesday, so be sure to comb your hair, shine your bucket, and practice that smoldering stare. This is your big moment. Remember, these photos live on the internet forever, so now is your chance to upgrade from looking like a guy who just finished a 2-for-1 wing night.
Speaking of photo day, here’s a quick reminder why it pays to take it seriously.
A couple of years back, our photographer Scotty—yes, *that* Scotty—decided he wanted to "capture the spirit" of the team. Bold idea, but Scotty being Scotty, things got weird fast. Somewhere between the action shots and the bench poses, he convinced Rob (you know Rob) to recreate a dramatic goal celebration for the camera. What Scotty *didn’t* tell him was that he’d greased up the ice in front of the lens—"for effect."
The result? Rob slid full-speed into the boards, helmet askew, while Scotty cackled like a mad scientist behind the camera. The photo? Pure gold. If you haven’t seen it hanging in the rink, you’re missing a masterpiece. Rob’s fine—his ego? Not so much.
So, maybe stick to the basics this year. No deadpan serial killer faces, no half-blink disasters, and please, for the love of Gordie Howe, no duck lips. And if Scotty suggests "adding flair," proceed with caution.
Oh, and in case you were wondering—yes, this story is 100% made up. But there *is* legitimately photo day and game day on Wednesday. See you all there.
