Foxy Friday: David Krejci

Boston Bruins center David Krejci is a Clark Kent.

During the regular season, he is just this mild-mannered guy, playing good hockey.  He’s not particularly flashy.   In fact, some times you don’t even realize he is there.

Then playoffs come around.

And he becomes this.

In just four games this post season, Krejci has 10 points.

10 POINTS!

That’s an average of 2.5 points a game (!).  In 46 games in the regular season, he had 33 points (10 goals, 23 assists.)

He has scored 5 goals and 3 of those game on Wednesday, when DK46 lit up the Leafs and helped the Bruins take a 3-1 series lead.

 

No affects of kryptonite here, people.

His Superhero hockey powers no doubt make him worthy of this Foxy Friday honor, but there are plenty of other reasons why he is so deserving.

So who exactly is #46 in the Black and Gold?

  • He is the love child of Mike Modano and Napoleon Dynamite.

  • He rocks camo way better than those guys from Duck Dynasty. (Except maybe Jace.)

  • He is the creamy vanilla middle of this black and gold Oreo.

  • Proper hydration is very important to him.

  • If this blog has taught you anything, it is that we appreciate a man that can rock the plaid.

  • He loves Tyler Seguin.  So do we. So…Do…We.

Bruins can close out the series with the Leafs on home ice today and move onto the 2nd round.

I, for one, can’t wait.  I might even sing about it.

  1. Dreamy. He looks like your average guy around the block who’d rake the leaves and then put a helmet on him and all I see are those pretty baby blues.

    • There is something oddly attractive about him despite more than a passing resemblance to Jon Heder. Maybe it is because he is European or because he is so low-key. I just don’t know.

      What I do know that right now, there is no one foxier. He’s TEARIN’ UP THE HEARTS of the Leafs and their fans with his super human play in the playoffs. It’s like he can just flip a switch when they start and become this hockey machine.

      LOVE IT!!

    No other words needed just, Yes. Krej does not receive as much love as he should. He really is the epitome of what it means to be a Bruin. I literally said, YES when I saw he was chosen as FF this week. He is great. Much love to number 46!

    Haha, he does look just enough like Napoleon Dynamite!

    As a heterosexual male, I too am struck by Krejci. One of the few players who can make an over-sized helmet and visor cool.

    YES! I am all for this FF! 🙂 I’ve always liked how under the radar Krejci is. Seems like a solid guy, on and off the ice.

    Chuck, can come over tonight and watch the game with you? I don’t have the NHL Network and you’ll at least have the NESN feed. I think if I get on a plane RIGHT NOW, I’ll just miss the beginning of the 1st period.

    And thank you, I’m never going to hear “Call Me Maybe” the same ever again! Fantastic!

    Yay! Awesome to see David as the FF. It’s those quiet, soft-spoken ones that a gal’s gotta look out for!
    (have you noticed those long eyelashes? dreamy.)
