NHL Players Love Gritty

The Flyers disappointed last night, but Gritty never disappoints.
Gritty, still in his rookie year as a professional sports mascot, was named the National Hockey League’s best mascot in a players poll:

This was a no-brainer, as far as I’m concerned. Surely you wouldn’t vote for that dumbass Penguin, Iceburgh, would you? Sidney Crosby probably did, that sleaze ball.
Congratulations to Gritty, from all of us here at Crossing Broad.
