So far, A-Line is in the lead. Just ahead of "Bada Bing"?!?!!??!!?!
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!!?!?!
"Line of Fire" is pretty good and "Devils Triangle" was one of my
suggestions, so I gotta like that one.
"Lucifers Lamplighters" is too long, but it's up there at 8%.

To the fellow who thought that naming Arnott's line was giving too
much glory to 3 players in this team game:
It's fun to give lines names. I don't care if it is the first,
second, third or fourth line. Think back to '95. Were we giving too
much glory to our so-called fourth line? I the coach deems that any
set of 3 guys are going to be a set line - I don't see any harm in
naming the unit.
And given that we've only had two or three lines that got named, we
need a few more. It gives character to the team. Okay. We've had:
(1) Hell's Angels: Thomas, Guerin, Sykora.
(2) Crash Line: Holik, McKay, Peluso
(3) Fossil Line: Peter McNab, Mel Bridgeman, Rich Preston
(4) Bada Bing?!?!?! Who the hell thought that one up and why are
people voting for it?!?
