the pocket gaudreau project

in conjunction with arik from M&G, i present to you: the pocket gaudreau project. born out of pure flames-loving giddiness and a penchant to over-adore prospects (....beer MIGHT have been involved...), arik and i stumbled on this bit of fun during my sojurn at his pad in puerto rico last month. why ? because the flames blogosphere needs a mascot, and because john gaudreau (drafted 2011, 4th round, 104th overall) is unquestionably the CUTEST !!!

anyhow, it goes like this: when/if you receive the pocket gaudreau in the mail, you must take some photos of him travelling gnome prank style before sending it on. if you would like to participate in the pocket gaudreau project, you can email me or arik your street address (walkinvisible@gmail.com, arik.jamesk@gmail.com), and we'll try to get the cuddly little guy headed your way... please email one of us when/if you find the lovable wee dude in your mailbox so we can track his journey. i've definitely got enough of the current nerdy blog buddy mailing addies to get this party started....the adorable mini fella's making his first trip to the 'dome tonight (along with the inaugural game for the signed gio captain jersey) and then he'll be off to the warm beaches of aguadilla.

and, john ---if you're reading this ? i'm sorry about the harassment you're gonna get from your teammates forevermore...

Wait...what? You were in PR? You know that's fairly close to Florida...wtf...

Did you find the PG in PR? I'm confused...

you knew i hit PR, that's why i inquired as to your whereabouts in late november...! in the end, i couldn't find as good a flight your way as i could home, and then i got a job.

think march, buddy. maaarrrchh...

oh, and i made the PG today at my boss's house with my printer and her laminator. the idea was birthed in arik's living room (at 72ºF, to be clear) in PR...

Hi. I'm an uncle of John Gaudreau and stumbled across this blog and Pocket Gaudreau Project!! Pretty wicked awesome I might say!

We are looking forward with hope that John gets to Calgary and on the ice soon. It'll be some serious travelling for family members to make home games (LOL) (we will tho!!) but I've got Boston covered.

I'ld be interested in learning more about the PG ventures. Curious as to where PG has been, what he's up to and where's he's going.....would be wicked awesome to even perhaps have hit Beantown for some local travels. (Got some good spots to take hime to!)

Well hope to get an update or hear some PG rumblings soon.

Hit me up via email if you'ld like. My email addy is smjgaudre@msn.com .
