I just had a look at Zach Bogosian's contract and what the flying gently caress is that?

That's cool. What's the list of current women players in a men's division? There is the Fin Goalie Noora Raty I know of. Is that all?

22 year old playing 23 minutes a night in his 4th NHL season and scoring at a good rate (close to .5 PPG). Banking on not having the injury issues he's had and that the improvement was real.

He had a really bad year.

A 24 year old, top 3 kind of guy, close to a career 30 point pace and his contract bought 4 UFA years. What's the problem?

Not just bigger nets, but two nets per team. I think we found our solution.

e: also, mandatory stoppage for somersaults so that both teams tire out. I like this.

I can't even find an article about it or anything by googling. And her wiki isn't updated with it. Weird. When Wickenheiser signed with a Finnish team there was a fair bit of news about it.

I only found Norwegian and Swedish articles about it, and google translate is horrible.


Also, zuccarello practiced with VIF, one of the biggest Norwegian clubs today, and on the end of it they played strip shootout. Zuccarello scored on his first attempt, but two of their players and to take the last shot with only skates on.

Nuts to you, nutbag. Toronto's the least most-hated-by-Americans-but-still-frequently-hated Canadian team in the league, and that's certainly possibly noteworthy.

The second best rivalry in sports is kind of... gone now the Detroit is in the East. Im actually sad that I had to find a new team to hate, since no one can fill that black void quite like the Red Wings.

gently caress the Blues though.

As funny as this is it was just a poll of reddit users so I'm not sure how representative it is of anything. The Africa thing was probably because one dude replied.
