Giordano jokes about one-upping Omark: Maybe we'll light Gaudreau on fire

Mark Giordano has an idea that would set more than the internet ablaze.

The Calgary Flames defenseman jokingly suggested a way teammate Johnny Gaudreau could one-up Linus Omark, who lit his stick on fire in the KHL All-Star shootout last weekend.

"Maybe we'll just light Johnny on fire," Giordano said Friday at NHL All-Star Media Day in Nashville.

Gaudreau wanted to light his stick on fire at last year's skills competition in Columbus, but he wasn't allowed.

He wasn't selected for this year's Breakaway Challenge, but he will compete in the NHL Shootout and Skills Challenge Relay events on Saturday.

The league wouldn't be thrilled with Gaudreau becoming The Human Torch, but maybe he could just wear one of these fire-resistant suits under his equipment.
