I thought they created this for Vandevelde?
- FlyersGrace


Vandevelde is a legitimate NHL mascot that has earned the trust of a NHL organization. The fact that he has been unsigned for this long is meaningless.

How many guys could suit up as a mascot and just don’t get the call? I’ll trust the mascot people on this one. I like Gritty.

Ok if Gritty can bring a Wendy's like presence on social media I'll be ok with it.

Looks like Hartnell after a hard offseason regimen of strippers, controlled substances, and shame:

Thanks everyone, I had to stop reading the posts about Gritty because I’m laughing so hard I’m crying at work, people are ‘starting’ to wonder about me.

It's like Hartnell and Voracek had a cocaine fueled love child.

If that thing comes near me I may punch it. I get mascots in baseball. Slow game, keeps the kids entertained. Hockey is a fast sport where you need to pay attention. Can’t wait til the first person gets clocked with a puck because that stupid looking thing is distracting people

Wouldn't Gritty "perform" only during commercial time-outs and between periods?

Dear Gritty:
One goalie in preseason is sporting a 957 save % 1.20 GA
Another is coming off two knee surgeries and is sporting a .895 save %.

There's no way they'll allow that thing in the aisles during play.

Most people can barely tolerate when someone stands up to get up to the the bathroom at games. If that walking carpet blocks someone's view during the game, he'll end up getting shivved.
