Jarome Iginla
Mar. 2nd, 2010 12:56 pmWhile I was in Scotland I had a good time encouraging ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
stormsearch in her newfound love of hockey. It's not as strong as L's (...yet) but after hearing her response to the Men's Gold Medal game the other day, I feel there is hope for her. *grin*
(There is something really wonderful about getting people in Scotland to fall in love with Hockey. It's just so... improbable.)
Anyway, we naturally got to talking about attractive hockey players. I am certainly one of the first to admit that most hockey players should really leave their helmets on. A lifetime of helmet hair and being knocked about on the ice does not a pretty face make. Yeah, sure I find them all super attractive when they are on the ice and skating - because skating is pretty and very awesome when it is done well (exhibit a - Speed Skaters). But I really don't find many hockey players to be attractive off the ice as well as on. (I feel there must be a similar effect with rugby players too...)
But there are a few exceptions. And some of them even manage to remain attractive after long careers. (Kirk Mueller is a good example... but I'm not going to talk about him today.) I maintain that when Jarome Iginla smiles, everything is right with the world. Naturallystormsearch wanted proof. So instead of just sending the evidence to her I thought I would share with all of you lovely people as well.
And so I give you pictorial evidence of Jarome's amazing smile.

( More evidence under the cut! )
