They say a picture's worth a thousand words. These GIFs have roughly 100 individual image frames.
Ergo, this piece is 50% longer than the entirety of Moby Dick. Looks like 1st Ohio Battery is your leader for longform pieces now. Anyways, here are the top three GIFs of last night's spectacular opening night performance.
3) A Sonny Celly
Looks like that Sonny Milano camp hype was justified. The 21-year-old winger set off the first cannon shot of the 2017-18 Blue Jackets season – and of his career – and celebrated accordingly. That reaction is gold, but the real highlight here is the kid getting absolutely mobbed by his teammates.
2) Oops.
It's bad when your team gets crushed on the scoreboard. It's even worse when you sell out for the big hit and get absolutely lit up by the puck-carrier. Not that there was much anyone on the Isles could have done to get their squad back into it, but… yeah, that's not going to help.
Here's a hot tip – go back and watch that again, but instead of watching the Dubinsky spin move, keep your eyes on Hickey.
1) Hello, Hugs
Here's to more of these as the season goes on.
