Hey you got Superheroes in my Hockey.

The NHL just figured out that superheroes are popular. So they hired Stan Lee to create a superhero based on all 30 NHL teams.

You can read an article here where a sports writer is obviously not happy with this. I mean I don't like it, but I recognize it as a promotion. Mr. Wyshynski seems to be very upset over this. I don't know maybe one of the guardians failed to save his Uncle Ben.

NHL I am disappoint. They only two they have released pictures of so far are the King and the Penguin. I am not blown away by the names, I hope they get a little more creative later cause the Blue is not going to cut it.

All 30 are set to be unveiled at the All-Star Game. I assume there will be some guys wearing the costumes.

...and the jocks will still say that Dungeons and Dragons is nerdy.

UPDATE: Okay, so evidently the heroes are all just named after the teams. One will be the Blue one will be the Islander, one will be the Canadian. *Sigh*
