Oh my God, Youppi! What have they done to Youppi!? You would think it's impossible to look so wretched while covered in electric-orange spaghetti fur—and have a name that includes an exclamation point and is literally French for "yippee!"—but then you've never been Youppi! in a Rangers jersey all alone on a merry-go-round.


Youppi!, it turns out, was on the losing end of a bet with Jimmy Fallon. If the Canadiens had won the series against the Rangers, Fallon would have had to do his monologue in a Canadiens jersey. Instead, the Rangers won, and now Youppi! has to go around Montreal in a Rangers jersey.
