When Gary Met Messier


Given Mess's hairline, the stubby beer bottle, and Gary Coleman's still happy-go-lucky demeanor, I'd date this photo circa 1984, likely when the Oilers were in LA to play the Kings.

As further evidence for that date, I offer the photo below, where Messier is caught in a similar donkey-braying pose upon winning the Conn Smythe trophy as playoff MVP in '84.
