Since you guys probably have no clue who the other 3 are, the player we choose in today's countdown is the great...
Joe Vitale
Joe Vitale was drafted in the 7th Round (195th overall) by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft. Vitale is known best for being from St. Louis, Missouri and most of the time, you saw him skating around and falling down. Vitale played in 163 games as a Penguin scoring 8 goals and 27 assists while recording 115 PIM's over a total of 4 seasons.
What we will remember the most about Joe Vitale is probably this
Lavy is jammed. Bylsma is a pussy.
Joe Vitale is the perfect summary of what Dan Bylsma's Penguins were. #GetToOurGame would be the perfect way to describe how Joe Vitale plays. Vitale has scored a few big goals in his career though.
And he almost died once from Zdeno Chara.
And he fought our favorite former Penguin, Harry Keysmash once against Philly
Some people really liked Joe Vitale with the Penguins because he skated really fast or some shit like Brian Gibbons, but he was what was wrong with the Penguins the last 4 years, in the simple fact, he's not very good.
Here's a post from our good friends over at The Pensblog from the playoffs this year with a bunch of gifs of Vitale falling down, which we're pretty sure he did more than he was on his feet. Vitale falls down
Vitale became a UFA on July 1st, and someone in Phoenix sorry Arizona, was drunk enough to give him a 3 year deal worth $1.116 million per year (sorry Brandon).
The best thing to take out of this is, Joe Vitale is no longer a Penguin and that means the #GetToOurGame era is officially over.
Shocked he's not on his feet.
That's really all that we can say about Joe Vitale without wanting to drink bleach or some shit.
Tune in tomorrow to see who #45 is.
We promise there's probably a Skittles reference.
Until then
Go Pens
