e! That's a hot pic of Tyler Seguin...

Needs more cats.

that made my day!

I liked the one with all the fat bull dogs in laps! So cute!

While there were a lot of adorable pics that made me smile and say ahhh. Ummm, Henrik Lundqvist in an all black suit with his doberman Nova sitting on a couch giving that sultry look into the camera made me drool on my keyboard! YUMMY!

Don't know about any of the other pictures, but the one with Malkin and the lorikeets and the one with the flamingo was at the National Aviary in Pittsburgh. Loved going there as a kid, and I go back every time I visit Pittsburgh now.

@1 Agreed! Tyler Seguin on his knees is hot! hot! hot!

I know that Malkin with penguins was an obvious one, but I still liked it.

Still to come -- Zdeno Chara with a black bear, Saku Koivu surrounded by mallards, Logan Couture swimming with hammerheads, Shane Doan and a coyote, Duncan Keith with a black hawk perched on his arm, Henrik Zetterberg with a red-winged blackbird, Brian Campbell with an endangered Florida panther (is FLA the most anonymous hockey team in history?), Danny Briere with birds, bats, and/or insects.

And, of course, Shea Weber with a predator of Megan's choice.

@8 Can I have an oil-covered Taylor Hall?

@5 !!!! I didn't go far enough...Henrik Lundqvist is beautiful...

@9:

Go for it! Oil, after all, is made from compressed animals and plants.

I also nominate some Canucks or Canadiens players in a dom/sub pet-fantasy photo...except the sub-pet is just in a costume of Canadian cliches? Hot?

@8 Shea Weber has a HUGE great dog named Dug:

<3!!!!

Sooo apparently I need to marry a hockey player. Preferably one covered in SCOTTISH FOLD KITTEHS

Megan @13: Shea Weber has a HUGE great dog named Dug:

This just reminded me, "Hi, my name is Doug. Squirrel!!!"

I hope somebody got that obscure reference.

It looks like Zenon Konopka needs some tender loving care, which I am happy to provide.
