Moose75 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 How to hockey player slang: 1. Pretend to have a slight Ontario accent, often as a way to fit in with the superior Canadian players in the locker room. It's not annoying at all to hear some dude who has lived in Connecticut all his life say "pahss", "shwat", "eowht (out)", or "oh yaa". 2. Is the word over one syllable? Keep just the first syllable and add a "y" as the second. 3. Does the person's last name have only one syllable, or just too European to say? Add "sy", or if you're feeling bold, "er". 4. Be certain to pepper all discussions, interviews, or social interactions with "fur sure". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is normal rink talk/terms for me as well... and I am a guy nearing his 30's as well, and most of the guys i play with are above 30... so i'm genuinely confused why it's being looked down upon here.

Because as goalies we are the superior ones on the team. Not only in intellect, but in manners, good looks, skill and ability to ride really tall horses.

bunnyman666 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Quote This year I learned that people now call the EA sports game "chel" @bunnyman666 Can I get the official waiting period waived to join the old man club? I think I'm done with the yoots In order to supercede rquirements, you must do two of the following: 1) go on a back in my day rant 2) talk about how you have to get up in the middle of the night to pee and how your prostate is the size of a water melon and you can’t get all the pee out 3) use a flip phone, or 4) use a modern phone, but bitch about how hard that dad gummed thing is to work 5) have an organ removed or other major health scare 6) not know who anyone is in a People or entertainment magazine 7) Call the rapper named “Snoop Lion” by the name “Snoopy Dogg Doggy” and explain that he raps about Woodstock and how much of a loser Charlie Brown Let’s see your application in the Old Man Club thread.

stackem30 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 @Kayen FWIW, I am 30 years old. Believe me, I get that nay-sayers on these matters sound condescending. If you look back in this thread, I personally shrugged off the whole 'clean' thing by saying "Eh, I don't like it either, but young people always move around with slang, what can ya do?". But hey, this is a forum for discussion, and we all get to voice an opinion... and mine is that terms like 'shutty' are a step too far on the slang-o-meter. It doesn't have less syllables than "shutout", it's not easier to say, it's not clever, etc. And personally, at 30 years old, I would feel pretty foolish saying 'shutty' or 'celly'. I just think it sounds like baby talk. But hey, I'm not saying you can't or shouldn't use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
