10?! you thought i could narrow it down to 10?! hahaha yeah right.
1. unibrow, ewwww
2. pathetic hasek wannabe style
3. over use of head (cranium carroms) due to incredibly slow glove hand
4. huge ego (romans empire, excuse me while i go gag)
5. weak "too many shots" excuse, whats a matta? cant handle it when you play in a country against real hockey players instead of the local villagers?
6. refusal to talk to reporters after bad games by pretending to not speak english
7. further proving hes a wannabe hasek by getting all the same equipment, gimme a break.
8. stupid habit of labling all pucks that get past him as "flukey by nature." (thats a lot of wasted pucks.)
9. giving up crappy five hole goals due to over dramtic attempts at diving, and flopping
10. his charity, the "raise enough money to get surgery to give roman two eyebrows instead of one."
11. weak tactic of knocking the goal off when he doesnt know where the puck is
12. shave ur friggin eyebrow
13. offical drink of the flyers-powerade, offical drink of chokemanek- pedialyte
14. Requests for one bed when rooming with dopita
15 "yeah. aspargus. thursday." ;-)
16 petty rivalry with local mite team back in czeck repub, so far, mites are undefeated.
17.Only playing in NHL to get on figure skating tour "icecapades"
18. that unibrow is still pissin me off
19. insistance on wearing tight pink spandex under equipment.
20. false idea that he is the starter.
21. reputaion for scaring away little kids at the flyers wives fight for lives carnival
22. the third biggest reason, 2002 playoffs, roman goes from professional NHL goalie to angry five year old on the ice. excuse me, EXCUSE ME, who the hell does he think he is, gee im mad so im going to throw a fit on the ice, yea ok. this just further proves his lack of professionalism.
23. The second biggest reason, last year, final game of the eastern conf quaterfinals vs the buffalo sabres and his "hero" Dom hasek, and what does he do? HE CHOKES!!!!!! 5 FRIGGIN GOALS B4 HE GETS PULLED. I COULDA STOPPED THEM!!! BLOWS THE ENTIRE PLAYOFFS FOR FLYERS! which makes u wonder... if barber had gone with the better goalie, and the starting goalie, brian boucher, what would have happened? could they have beaten buffalo, could they have gotten to the conf finals, could they have gone all the way? thats something we will never know b/c CHECKMANEK CHOKED!!!!!
24. and the number one reason, because of that stupid self centerd bastard the goalie who could acatully take the flyers somewhere, brain boucher, is now playing in phoenix while the poor flyers fans back home are stuck watching choker. wonderful. 26 years with out a cup...going on 50...
