I still legit like the teal one and I don't know what's wrong with me because I'm obviously the only one.

I just realized extraskater has full shooting stats like miss%, slapshot%, etc. It's fun to see that Ovechkin scored 20 slapshot goals last season and Kessel a whopping zero - assuming they recorded it correctly, since there is some fuzziness between a hard snapshot and a slapshot with a short windup/wristshot with a quick release. It did inform me that Bozak doesn't have an unusually large miss%, he just has an abnormally high sh% and/or only shoots from in close. Maybe he'd score Also a fun stat: the only person with a worse on-net % on the powerplay than Phaneuf's 37% was... David Clarkson. Too bad it's only from a sample of 14 shots, of which Clarkson missed 4 and had 5 blocked - probably why he didn't get more PP time, huh?

ThinkTank posted:My favourite is still BQSTQN BRUINS from 1972. That or Eric STAAAL. So there are several errors in the cup too? Also, what of the replica cup, is that what they give to people for their stanley cup at home town tours when the real one returns to HHOF? it is the real one presented at finals, right? (Also. I also like the teal flyers jersey.)

There are two Stanley Cups, the presentation cup and the display cup. One of them is always on display at the hall of fame. The presentation cup has the Xs. The original bowl that Lord Stanley donated has been on permanent display at the hall for a while.

They have all the removed bands in there as well, it's pretty cool. I was in TO on training one day and had an afternoon to kill so I spent it at the HHOF. It was an afternoon well spent.

The American HHOF is probably boring but I wouldn't know firsthand because it's in bumblefuck Minnesota and it was closed the one day I went through that area. So I took a picture of a giant 30 foot tall hockey stick statue they built in the town instead.

The Canadian Football Hall of Fame is pretty boring. I have had the pleasure of drinking a butt-load of $2 drafts with Angelo Mosca, but I think LOTS of people have done that. Look at me, droppin names.

Specifically, since the wording here can be taken 2 ways, the display/replica cup is displayed when the presentation cup is out of the HHoF for whatever reason. The display cup never leaves the HHoF and the Cup anywhere outside is always the presentation cup.

It's probably correct since Kessel's stick might make it nearly impossible to do a slapshot, it only has 70 flex.

Kessel has one of the best slapshots in the league. He can shoot like 102, 103. Really annoying sometimes that he doesn't utilize it.

My buddy who plays way more NHL video games then he does watch hockey referred to it as a video game slapshot and he's 100% accurate. It looks computer assisted, like you put NHL 14 into three button mode.

Canadiens only want a one year deal on Subban at 5.25 million? What the gently caress is going on here? https://twitter.com/THNKenCampbell/status/494472251903721472 edit - oh duh, arbitration being the key word. That's just the figure the Canadiens are bringing to the hearing.

in arbitration the team picks a low number, the player a high number and the arbiter splits the difference and gives subban just under $7m. the real questionable figure is subban only asking for $8.5.

Stupid summer hockey internet poll news: TSN ran a poll saying who was the more important franchise player: Benn or Malkin. Now I'd argue Malkin too, but one being Canadian, Benn one. TSN then called for a revote. They then suspended the revote, and said Malkin won. Now Benn is announced as the winner. Vote for Rory. http://www.tsn.ca/franchisefaceoff/
