The NHL Girl

The Red Wing faithful were getting antsy as to weather their beloved Johan Franzen, a.k.a. the Mule, would return in time to play in the Stanley Cup finals. After a physical yet relatively easy series against the Colorado Avalanche rendered the Mule out of play with headaches and concussion like symptoms. This mystery ailment was revealed by the Detroit media recently as a bruise to the brain. The doctors told the Mule he will be fine, and he even returned to the wings to help them clench the coveted Stanley Cup.
