Starring Pekka Rinne as Mr. Darcy

As summer approaches I've made a pact with myself to expand my mind and not my waist line. With that goal I've begun reading the complete works of Jane Austen (in between hockey games).

Pride and Prejudice got the honour of being the first and with it Mr. Darcy makes an appearance. No, he isn't really named Mr. Darcy. No, I'm not Elizabeth Bennet. No we don't hate each other then fall in love. In fact he doesn't know I exist (though until recently I didn't know he existed either).

Pekka Rinne of the Nashville Predators is one attractive man. He came to my notice during this years playoff run (lord I've been missing out).

So why Mr. Darcy...

Pekka Rinne is honourable. He stood on his head for his team, made some incredible saves, and remained poised throughout the high pressure playoff atmosphere.

Hei siellä

I don't know about you, but I can't ever get enough Finnish goalies in my life. Thanks to Hockey Broad, we get to giggle about another today.

Pekka Rinne / Nashville Predators

Aside from being, as they say in Finnish quite herkullinen (delicious), he's also got the second best GAA and Save %. How can you not love him?

Seriously, How can you not love him?





I'm also going to point you to his Wikipedia page. Someone had the brilliant idea to post a little goalie porn over there. Bwahaha! We're spreading!
