Valentine’s Day thankfully only comes once a year. What’s most disappointing about it is the lack of Detroit Red Wings-themed valentines cards to buy for that special someone. Heck, there aren’t even hockey ones, at least good ones. Us diehard fans (or crazy people, whichever you prefer) take to making our own, and we let them range from super serious to absolutely ridiculous to everything in between.

This is a staple of mine, creating Valentines others can use to tell their loved ones (or their enemies) how they feel about them. I started way back on Livejournal in 2010 and have done Valentines here at Octopus Thrower in 2013 and 2014. I can’t break the streak now!

Happy Love Day!

Okay, this one is a little mean, but it cracks me up to no end. With how his signing went down, I’m sure most of you agree with this.

And from everyone here at Octopus Thrower, we hope your Valentine’s Day (Or Anna Howard Shaw Day) is full of Zetterhearts and free curly fries!
