The "Green Men" in the stands for the Vancouver Canucks home games have perfect seats by the opposing team's penalty box, so they come prepared with props knowing they will eventually get their air time. Since their opponent in the second round of the NHL playoffs is the Nashville Predators, and forward Mike Fisher is married to country superstar Carrie Underwood, it means Underwood becomes a target for the wacky antics of the Green Men.
Last night, with Predators forward Jordin Tootoo in the penalty box, one of the Green Men took a cutout of Carrie Underwood in a Canucks jersey and placed it against the glass, with the other Green Man holding a sign saying "Send Over Underwood." See for yourself:
The ironic thing about this picture is that if these guys had done their research, they would know that Tootoo had once dated another former American Idol singer, Kellie Pickler. Since the series is tied at 1-1, we know that there will be a game 5, which will be held in Vancouver, so there's still time. If they don't have the Kellie Pickler cutout ready for that game, I'll be very disappointed.
