Hockey Randomness

[iamjs]

oh yeah, then that doesn't count. That's shaving off at least 12 ft.

I mean it's still a damn good lap, but it's probably closer to 13.5

Been retired from hockey since 2008 but looks like he was facing nonstop shots for 60 minutes straight.

Nets were moved forward so that players had less of a sharp angle, less risk of blowing a tire on a tighter turn and breaking an ankle...NHL nets were moved forward too, were they not...?

[Jim]

Is PK Subban broken, or is he just not interested anymore?

[meow]

Subban's back is toast.

[Gaucho]

Subban's toast is back.

they were:

Subban's best quality was his athleticism. He is now on the wrong side of 30 and not as explosive...his game is so incredibly complicated that he's bound to fail...it's like late Bylsma level breakouts...Subban spins four times, cuts back against the grain, uses the net as a shield, sauces it over the net to himself in his own slot, puts the puck on his blade lacrosse style while doing a backflip and then launches it ahead to.......Travis Zajac.

Just bank it ahead to Hischier and get off, man...the game isn't that complicated...

[Dickie Dunn]

That’s a hell of a sequence. Also probably the best way to put it. I always thought he over complicated things strictly for style points.

The speed "race" should just be a spring from goal line to goal line. Race-track loops are not realistic in hockey. Breakaway speed, or catch up to someone on a breakaway is. That is a one direction sprint than a loop.

I actually like this. Goal line to goal line sprints, back and forth.

[mikey]

Probably the only skill thing that hasn't changed since the whole shebangabang started, eh?

[meow]

I see the argument, but it's not a true gauge of speed because guys have to slow down before the end goal line.

[NTP66]

They need to spice it up. Speed skating while dodging a Kasparaitis hip check.

Only if you’re a puss puss. Pad the boards.

Wanna get nuts? Let's get nuts.

Shot blocking competition
Getting dressed race
Competitive game of rebound
No more divisions for the game - toss sticks to determine teams
Have them take a bunch of Ambien then do an obstacle course

Donnybrook event.

[meow]

I don't know what that is so no

[mikey]

- Kris Russell
- Patrick Marleau
- Sidney Crosby
- Team McDavid
- Brent Burns

[Kane]

I don't know what that is so no

Free-for-all brawl.

[NTP66]

Monkey in the middle where Tom Wilson is the monkey and everyone throws skates at his head.

[dodint]

Smear the Letang.

[NTP66]

They’re going to sign Letang to a 12 year extension just to spite you.

[Freddy Rumsen]

[dodint]

Fine.
