That's the third - at least - awarded goal scored with the net dislodged in the last week. Crazy.

Ovi with goal #900 last night against the Blues.   Now the question is whether he will try for 950.  

Was a really funny moment when the goalie Bennington tried to put the 900 goal down his pants.  The official either caught him or asked if he had the puck and reluctantly gave it up 😁

This is in response to the announcement today that Rasmus is taking a leave of absence to be with Carolina, who is in Sweden recovering from a heart transplant.

Macklin Celebrini appears to be good at hockey.  

 

His hat trick last night gives him 30 points thru 20 games.  He's the 4th teenager in NHL history to do that.  The others, Mario Lemieux, Sidney Crosby, and Wayne Gretzky.

I got tickets for the Vegas and Nashville game on New Year's Eve. First NHL game and I'm stoked, then I see Vegas get thrashed by Utah the other night. Either way, hockey is the coolest sport there is!

God, I love hockey for the grit that's still there and not ruled out thanks to fancy sponsors. However, my Panthers are pissing me the fuck off!

Sidney Crosby has become the Pens all time leading scorer passing Mario Lemieux

Crosby has 1,724 points in 1,387 games (645 goals, 1079 assists)

He also passed Mario to 8th on the NHL's all time scorer list

He is also now the 9th active player to lead a franchise in points

Sid has had such a ridiculous career. He's done everything and then some. I'll forever be bitter at him for 2009 but, man, he's lived up to the pre-draft hype more than any #1 since Mario (McDavid needs some Cups to get there).

Getting an absolute shitshow of an organization like Edmonton to back to back finals is honestly as impressive as any of Sid's cup wins. If the Oilers don't get McDavid they are a total basket case like the Pegula Sabres (who in a festivus miracle have now begun to act like an actual NHL organization).

I will also say something that sounds weird: Crosby is the most criminally underrated generational talent in any sport I have ever seen. So many people simply don't want to give him his due. I think I said this before but years back I was at a Pens-Isles game and decided to focus on Crosby any time he was on the ice and one thing stood out: He was always in the right position like he knew where the play was going to go. One of the smartest players I have ever seen.

Part of it is just backlash from the hype. But part of it also is that Sid was a whiny little turd for the first several years of his career. Complained a lot, would do dirty stuff to start trouble, etc. 

But you're right about him being underrated.

Roof closed for tonight, unfortunately. 

That said, I've seen a lot, lot, LOT of unhappiness on X, The Everything App and r/hockey that this game isn't being played in Yellowknife under blizzard conditions with only English-speaking people being allowed in the stadium and/or to watch on TV. 

Christ.

El infierno son los otros.
