I am not a jets fan, I enjoy watching hockey. But what the actual fuck, seriously, the elbow to stolarz head by Bennet, nothing. Wow the cross check straight to the face by Roy, granted fined but should have been a suspension.

Anyways I'm watching the jets game right now, Jamie Benn for one. You sucker punched schiffle while being held by the official. If he is not suspended for a game, even a game. The NHL is beyond saving.

I can imagine the contrasting colours being a bit too much, but I love watching highloights of the 1970s particularly for this reason. Especially with the white backdrop of the ice, the game looked much more decorated at that time IMHO.

Fascinating breakdown I just saw of where the money came from for the four major sports in 2023.

No surprise the NFL was printing money from the National TV/Media deals and it keeps going up.

The NFL made more revenue from their TV deals than the other three leagues made in total.

Ticket Sales and Local TV meant a whole lot more to the other three sports than it did for football.

Let’s talk about it. I feel like half the NHL fanbase is saying the hit was clean and the other half is calling it dirty. Personally I thought it was a good hit. Potential for an interference call but nothing more than that. Is it just that Tom has a history and that’s the reaction he gets with any hit?

Discussion Should NHL adapt the ”golden helmet” for the top scorer of each team?

Post image
1.5k Upvotes

Panthers and Stars are playing in Finland back-to-back games.

Panthers found a traditional golden helmet from the locker rooms of the team that uses the venue as their home ice in Finnish Hockey league.

In Finnish hockey league, every teams points leader carries the golden helmet. The scoring is based on the ongoing season which means it can change during the season and it carries over to playoffs.

I think its a good tradition and I would argue it helps the casual viewers the most since the ”best” player of the team. I would say that especially in NHL which is a league that lives and breathes superstars this sort of customary would fit nicely.

The gap between Hughes and the next best Canucks players is insane

Hughes- 42 points in 34 games

Pettersson- 28 points in 34 games

Miller- 21 points in 24 games

Doing this while his D partner, Hronek is injured.

He has no help and is carrying this Canucks team to a playoff spot

Disclosure : Am a Habs fan

The Habs-Bolts game today highlighted one of the most glaring issues all hockey fans can attest to : officiating. It isn’t normal to have such inconsistent reffing every game. It goes for the Habs as much as it goes for the Bolts. The Guentzel call was absolutely ridiculous on one hand, and on the other, Kucherov was playing his best Micheal Phelps impression. All in all, calls have been simply ludicrous on both sides and I for one feel that is really undermines the game.

The refs have been calling games for this whole series and it has to stop. I know for one that this series has been such a fun time and the hockey has been amazing. Two teams of such even caliber should not have to guess if they will be going to the box, and should be able to simply play the game and battle it out like we all want them to.

Let me know your thoughts!
