I’m not really sure what Dominic Roussel is trying to do here. It’s kinda like a cross between John Travolta circa 1977 and Zangief and former Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev, cranial birthmark and all, doing a traditional Russian dance. Don’t believe me?

Look at ’em go! Look how happy they look! Oh, how I miss the nineties sometimes.

Now just imagine a Bee Gees soundtrack and you’ll definitely see what I mean. Just take a listen…

Unfortunately for Dominic, even though he could seriously cut a rug, his Flyers couldn’t quite cut it that season, finishing the 1992-93 season at 36-37-11, and missing the playoffs. Roussel was OK in the 34 games he played, going 13-11-5 and posting a 3.76 goals-against average and .881 save percentage, but hardly spectacular, unlike the image on his O-Pee-Chee card aboove. The next season, however, Roussel found himself in the driver’s seat as the Flyers main goaltender, and he had a pretty solid 29-20-5 record, with a 3.34 goals-against average and .896 save percentage, numbers that were quite enviable back in the high-scoring early 1990s, but the Flyers still missed the playoffs. Surprisingly, his numbers actually improved throughout the rest of the decade, but his playing time decreased significantly. In fact, he was never a number one goaltender again after his breakout season. At least, we’ll have our memories of Dominic ha-ha-ha-ha stayin’ alive.
