Watched the 30 for 30: Of Miracles and Men doc last night on Netflix and that was some good shit. I was actually surprised as to how much the final third centered on Slava Fetisov and getting to the US.
And holy shit at the Canadians during the 1972 Summit Series. Those were some dirty motherfuckers.

Gotta teach sportsmanship early or you watch your kids turn into The Lil' Kings like this.
Yeah, it's a must watch in my opinion. Great 30 for 30, I'm really excited to also see a doc called "Red Army", which also focuses on the Soviet hockey situation around that time.
4 points out bitches.
DAT possible first round match up
Just make sure the Bruins don't make it so that Churchill is yours.

Oh don't get them worked up on this. They'll flood the boards. Having the team named Ducks provides them with great source material.
"Theyre great players, Jagr told reporters of his linemates. I didnt know anything about them. Theyre young. Theyre good
Its funny, theyve got the confidence. Thats what I love about them. I told [Barkov], Im going to scream. Give me the puck. He said, You dont have to scream. I see you.
Nineteen years old! I love it."
:lol Barkov&Jagr

My cousin in playing, everyone watch this and support them!
Cool! Honestly I should go see them live, the venue is literally a two minute drive from my place.
Had a bunch of family meet up at a game to watch her earlier this season, it was great.
I might've heard wrong, but is Tessa Bonhomme actually playing? I figured she's out of competitive hockey since she's been on TSN.
Yes, she scored.
Yeah technically she's only retired from international competition. Still plays in the CWHL.
:lol
It started becoming a problem in minor hockey in my area. Trash talking and taunting was getting way out of hand and fights were even breaking out in the parking lot.

We gave it a try, we'll work harder next time. Didn't know there were raised expectations.
We were okay yesterday. Could have been better.

What a story Hammond is. 6-0-1, including wins over the California teams. Imagine if he carried the Sens to the playoffs? Would be a interesting offseason for sure.
haha yup
my fantasy team would be very happy
NHL.com's picks for Norris finalists (using analytics) are
1. Kris Letang
2. PK Subban
3. Drew Doughty
1. Kris Letang

Knock out Montreal in the first round and get Therrien fired, I'm conflicted.
Lmao no mention of the leading scorer.
Here's Henrik Lundqvist staying rested on national television this morning: http://t.co/C8AhZe34UP
The most interesting thing out of this is that Hank's blood vessel injury is actually due to the whiplash of snapping his head back rather than from the actual impact of the puck itself.

Goddamn, that ball washing.

Eh. Mine would probably be Subban/Karlsson/Weber
I'm never impressed with Doughty. Ever. Letang is in pretty much the same boat. If not for playing with guys like Malkin and Crosby, I legitimately do not believe that Letang would ever be in the conversation.
Giordano would win it if he was healthy, IMO.
Yeah Giordano would be my pick regardless of health, but we know how much that matters to the voters.
Re: Letang, if you look at his corsi impact compared to other defencemen on the team, it's pretty stark. hard to make the argument that he's being carried by Crosby/Malkin, unless he's only on the ice when those two are (obviously not the case).
Doughty is a different story, but I don't think he needs me to defend him, haha.
There's TWO of them.

Doughty is basically the Kings in a nutshell: coasts during the regular season and then becomes unstoppable in the playoffs.
Letang seems to be having a fine season despite all the Pittsburgh injuries (Fleury's improved play helps as well).
Giordano's injury sadly takes him out of the conversation. If he was healthy and the Flames made the playoffs he would've deserved it.
But I think Weber is overdue. His team is finally competitive which should get him more recognition.

Honestly I've never been a big advanced stats guy but yeah that definitely looks pretty good for Letang. It's just that whenever I watch him he just doesn't seem all that good. Definitely not Norris-caliber.
Similar thing with Doughty. Rough eye-test that leaves me wondering where all the good words about him come from. They're both certainly quality guys and I would love for the Wild to have either or both of them, but they don't stand out to me.
Have to give the third pick to someone. I'm not a fan of Doughty/Pietrangelo/Letang and there really isn't anyone left aside from Giordano or a homer pick of Suter that stand out this year. Kieth, maybe.
Yeah I'd say I agree with this. Doughty just isn't all that impressive in the regular season.

So good. Who would you have ahead of the other? Lately seems like Hampus is the top guy but Cam is still so good.

Mack is living in the Talbot's old house alone right now
Cam just needs to shoot more and he'll noticeably better. Both's skating ability and hockey IQ and positioning are top notch.
Have Scotty is a HUGE plus for sure.
Leadership!
