It's ridiculous but it is sanctioned by the league still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is place for fighting, if two players run at each other the whole game and they then fight I have no problem with that, Better than a cheap shot from one of them like Ulf Samuelsson on Cam Neely. But Stu Grimson fighting Marty McSorley have no matter in the result of the game. Entertaining sometimes maybe but not important for the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I'd be fine if they banned fighting entirely. Drop your gloves, get ejected and suspended, very simple. Why try to hurt each other? It's already a dangerous sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Fighting is arguably the one part of the game that has held it back from more universal interest. More and more it seems out of place in modern times and societal norms, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Alexander Ovetjkin with goal number 700. Crazy. 8th player in history to reach that milestone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelVilla Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 David Ayres was sitting in the stands with his wife at Scotiabank Arena when Carolina Hurricanes goalie James Reimer went down with an injury. Ayers, the on-call emergency netminder in Toronto, left his seat and got half dressed into his gear on the off-chance something might happen to Carolina’s second option, Petr Mrazek. Midway through the second period, Ayres noticed his cell phone had started to blow up. What he didn’t realize was Mrazek had been hurt in a scary collision with Maple Leafs forward Kyle Clifford and was down on the ice. The next thing the 42-year-old Zamboni driver knew, he was walking down the tunnel and into the spotlight. And not long after, he had an improbable first NHL win. He is the oldest goalie in NHL history to win his regular-season debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Struggling to understand the play off system at moment. Is there a qualifying to a group stage or to a knockout round? Good to see hockey back even if its August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see hockey back even if its August There is a play-in to the real playoffs where the teams seeded 5 - 12 play each other in a 5-game series. NHL has done this great so far and probably have an advantage to other major leagues cause they are in Canada. Ok to watch too; especially with english-speaking commentators and not Shouty McShoutface Niklas Holmgren. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoelVilla Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 A 56-game season agreed. New divisions for this season. An all Canadian division should be interesting. Boston-Buffalo-New Jersey-NY Islanders-NY Rangers-Philadelphia-Pittsburgh-Washington Carolina-Chicago-Columbus-Detroit-Florida-Dallas-Nashville-Tampa Bay Anaheim-Arizona-Colorado-Minnesota-Los Angeles-Las Vegas-San Jose-St. Louis Ottawa-Montreal-Toronto-Winnipeg-Edmonton-Calgary-Vancouver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
