Gagne & Brodeur

somewhat on the block. looking to see what people will offer for them. PM me if interested

I will offer you two top-quality, shiny bags of pucks. Actually, three bags of pucks as Brodeur is still a pretty good player.

throw in a book of yours and its a done deal!

You haven't traded in a while Brandon. Sounds like you might be developing a nervous twitch.

im starting to get the shakes, someone trade with me!! please!!


FYI 171 hours, 56 minutes, 3 seconds, until puck drop!!!!!!!!

My pucks come in an 'antique wooden milk crate'. Arthur Dairy, defunct for at least a 1/4 century. Red had to wash the pucks the other day and gave up counting/washing at 150.

I never know if you're telling the truth or if this is some contrived "Whiz-type" story. LOL.

Be scared. This is a true story!!! Red was getting the pucks ready for the first practise. Some years when you dump the crate... well there are mud patches all over the ice where you dumped the damn crate.

I will not throw in the YELLOW BOX no matter how hard you barter!

Come on Matt, ask about the YELLOW BOX...

Okay, I'll bite. What is the YELLOW BOX????

Yeah, what the *%$*# is the Yellow Box?

The YELLOW BOX is an instution in the Arthur sporting community. I am the proud curator of the YELLOW BOX at this time. It goes back in time, and is entrusted to one member of the community. It is rumoured that the YELLOW BOX dates all the way back to the original Arthur sports team. The Arthur Arthurs. (no shit that team really existed). Down and through the years the YELLOW BOX came enduring lacrosse, hockey, softball, football and soccer seasons. Through these many teams and days items got placed in the YELLOW BOX, special things like helmet parts and most every strange screw you've ever encountered, tape, chalk, 7 whistles, skate stones, screw drivers, saws, leather strips and lacing tools, velcro, sticky tape, goaltender pad parts, punches, skate tighteners, pens, markers, skate laces, mouth guards, wax, game sheets, rosters, pliers, lighters, stop watches, chin straps... I have been able to resolve problems with the YELLOW BOX , that I had no idea I could resolve. The only thing not in the YELLOW BOX is a torch. Who would trust leaving the YELLOW BOX unattended in a room with a bunch of kids?

Infact, after games and practises, the YELLOW BOX has been left behind, only to be faithfully returned.

I worked for about five years at the Arthur Arena and restocked the YELLOW BOX to greater levels than ever before. A fellow asked me what the stuff was worth. My best guess is that to buy all the strange stuff collected in the YELLOW BOX , one would spend $1,000!

Why is it called the YELLOW BOX ? Because, the guy that donated the box, happened to get a YELLOW BOX from where ever he swiped it . The YELLOW BOX is about 4" tall, two feet long and 14 inches wide.

Anyone questioning the Arthur Tigers, can look up the team on Wikipedia! I can change the info on the team any time I like! Yes, the boards really did fall over. I interviewed the Mt. Forest coach 40 years after the game, for a Reunion program. Someday, I'll input the story as it was written for that program! Wikipedia does not mention the YELLOW BOX .

Fascinating....

I think you should go to Wikipedia and log an entry about the Yellow Box. It only seems fitting that it should be mentioned

Well, the YELLOW BOX is really only five years old. For a few years before that I carried it in another box. Trying to remember what I carried it in. Nothing too memorable. It really has all that stuff in it. I've fixed stuff in restaurants, arenas and even at the St. Jacobs Market one time! People sometimes come to my house. People have gotten that they bring their problems and I solve them! Kinda fun!

I guess one might say you're the "Man about town" then.

Or perhaps the "Man about town with the Yellow Box."

It's nice to have that kind of reputation....
