Saturday Morning Cartoon: Drury Gallery Part 1

For those of you who didn't listen to Blueshirt Banter Radio on Wednesday (by the way everyone here should listen to Banter Radio) Jim went off on a short but hilarious rant about Chris Drury. How can we get away with scratching our captain? Jim's solution is both elegant and hilarious, "Don't call it the press box, call it the bridge." I can picture it now, during the warm-up for the Rangers next game, Jim's voice fills the Garden, "Go up to the bridge captain. Captain, you're needed on the bridge." See the 'cartoons' after the jump...

Star-divide

 

I immediately pictured Drury dressed up like the Sea Captain from the Simpsons... and an idea was born.

I present to you Part One of a small art gallery dedicated to our inadequate captain.

[NOTE: This was prepared prior to the news about Drury's injury and him being a scratch for this afternoon's game]

And... Captain Clutch Crunch.

 

Keep an eye out for Part 2 of the Drury Gallery next Saturday! Let me know which Drury is your favorite.

Thank you, glad you liked it. Lets hope we get two points this afternoon. Afternoon games aren’t my favorite.

Let me know which one of these is your favorite. I’ll do a proper poll next Saturday with Part 2 and we can have a crowned champion.

My personal favorite: Sea Captain Drury.

He just looks so freakin’ dapper. Could use a ship’s wheel in the background though, he looks like he’s hunting for the Red October.

Fair point lol! Maybe I’ll do a 2.0 and put him on a galleon or something with a ship’s wheel behind him.

Can we use the poll to seed these pics, and have our Captain Contract March Madness Bracket?

Like the sea captain alot, although, I might be dating myself but I prefer my sea capt caricatures of the Quint variety.

Couldn't help myself

“And, you know, the thing about a shark… he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn’t seem to be living… until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin’. The ocean turns red, and despite all the poundin’ and the hollerin’, they all come in and they… rip you to pieces.”

this is an awful situation that cant be avoided

it sucks because a guy like Drury shouldn’t have to be finding himself in this spot.

I hate the situation, I am trying to make light of it partially because of that. I have been a big supporter of Dru and have made plenty of excuses for him. Being in the situation as the captain of the team and having most of the fanbase calling for your ‘C’ and roster spot can’t be fun. He is a class act on and off the ice, I wish this was unfolding in a much different way.

Drury had fluid drained from his left knee. No timetable on how long he’ll be out. He just have to stay off ice for now.

Injury is legitimate. Best wishes on a quick recovery Dru.
