There are so many dirty jokes about this picture of Blackhawks prospect, and current Toledo Walleye,  Joe Palmer I can't choose just one. Any suggestions?

How You Doin?

I have no idea why I love when goalies squirt themselves with water.



Actually, that's a lie I know exactly why.



That's Black Hawks prospect Joe Palmer by the way. He's currently playing for the Toledo Walleye of the ECHL. As you can see from this interview he did last year he's a pretty hard working guy. He's also a good guy at heart, taking time off of his busy schedule to help hand out coats to the homeless.



And we just can't forget that he's also kind enough to preform a very important service to all the female hockey fans that go to his games.



Sigh. Yes. He. Does.

Bits and Pieces

You guys continue to be absolutely awesome. So, while I work on a larger post for later, I have a few links I received via Twitter to hold you over.

- First, from @HockeyBroad, Corey Crawford failing to be anywhere near as awesome and bendy as Marty Turco.

- Next, from @julierubes, Brian Elliot showing us his goalie butt.

- Finally, from @txstarsgirl, John Grahame doing what has to be the best goalie stretch on Earth. I do believe it gave me the vapors.

Unfortunately, we're starting to run a bit low on pictures. If we run out, we'll have to dig into my supply of ECHL goalie pictures. As much as I adore Bobby Goepfert, Jaroslav Janus, and Dov Grumet-Morris, I don't think you guy want to see 15 posts of them (I really do have that many pictures worth).

Also, feel free to send us links to YouTube videos, stories on your favorite goalie, or any good interview you read. We're not picky here!

Hello everyone! Byng here. You met PokeChick, and her amazing writing, yesterday. Now it's my turn. While I'm not as good a writer as the other ladies here, I'd like to think I make up for it in pure spunkiness and photographic abilities. I have to admit that I love that I woke up to two submissions in my inbox and had three more by the time I got out of the shower. The blog isn't even a day old and you guys are already sending us some delicious goalie photos. Honestly, you guys rock.

Now, on to the fun.

First up, we have an amazing shot of Marty Turco courtesy of @QueenCrash.

 

(I just became a Turco fan.)

Give a big round of applause to QueenCrash you guys. Not only does she win the award for being the first submitter to G5H, she also got to see that amazing yumminess in person.

Please keep the submissions coming! We absolutely love them. Make sure you include how you want to be credited. The next blog post is scheduled for 5. Make sure you check back, it's quite special.
