Damn, I’m really sorry to hear this. I was just grilling my parents yesterday about keeping on their appointments, you couldn’t be more right about the importance of it. Thankfully you were able to catch it early. I wish you nothing but the best going forward.

How often is it goalies win this award?

Can you expand on any of this that you’re able to

Most adults have to pay to play hockey and now every woman must as well. Something also tells me that adult women’s hockey isn’t the competitive speed these women would like. Given the choice of playing hockey for little pay or paying to play, most people are going to choose being paid. The highest level they are able to play now is college or national team, neither of which is paid at all (I believe national team is stipend though). There is nothing to be exposed to.
-
Are the women on the national teams foregoing their obligations? Otherwise it seems like a few noteworthy players cost a whole bunch of women an opportunity to play competitive hockey. I’m sure for many of the women that alone was worth playing, never mind the pay. Just as I’m sure it’s the case in many men’s professional leagues.

Specifically it was in response to Kruppstahl, but I felt like it could have been applied to others so I didn’t think to quote him.
-
I can’t imagine they would. He just played his longest season of hockey ever and is probably at the point where he is beginning to train for next year. I imagine they want him to develop more on their plan than play more hockey that they view as meaningless.

The sport of hockey has grown immensely in North Carolina because of the Canes. I recently finished playing some college puck down there and everyone who was on the team and from NC was an avid Carolina fan, watching as many Canes games as I watch Sabres games. There are definitely fewer fans, less passion for hockey, and a lesser understanding of the game, but they do have devoted, knowledgeable, and passionate fans who have suffered through what was previously the longest playoff drought. I absolutely hate the Canes, but to say the Canes have had no impact in NC throughout their history is a boldface lie. With that said: Go B’s (???)
-
Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t intent and history taken into account for the suspension itself? I’m also pretty sure DoPS considers playoff suspensions to be the equivalent of two games per game. McAvoy doesn’t have any history (to my knowledge) and the hit was worth two games, three at absolute most. I don’t think it’s terrible he only got a game. Should have definitely been five last night.

Someday I’ll get to all 30 MLB parks... MLB: OPACY (Orioles), Old Yankee Stadium (Yankees)*, Fenway (BoSox), Sky Dome (Blue Jays), Jacobs Field (Indians), Comerica (Tigers), Angels Stadium of Anaheim (Angels), O. co Coliseum (Athletics), Shea Stadium (Mets)*, Nationals Park (Nationals), Citizens Bank Field (Phillies), Wrigley (Cubs), PNC Park (Pirates), Jack Murphy Stadium (Padres)*, Coors Field (Rockies), AT&T Park (Giants) Coors, Camden, and PNC are probably my favorites. NHL: FNC, Bridgestone Arena (Predators), PNC Center (Hurricanes), Bell Centre (Canadiens), Canadian Tire Centre (Ottawa) All of them are nicer than FNC NFL: RWS, First Energy Stadium (Browns), Nissan Stadium (Titans) No preference I’ve never been to an NBA game.

Those poor folks over at MLE not being able to manipulate their talent for lesser pay...

Doesn’t Arizona hold his rights still?

This turned into a fun game. Great period.

I don’t think it was meant to be, but I think it is if that’s the case.

In a similar vein, does hockey have rate stats?

I went and saw Endgames last night. I would say it’s a top three Marvel movie, but it did take a while to wrap up at the end (maybe it felt that way because it was pushing 1am). I’ll tell you what though, I’ll never understand people who clap in support of something or someone, when that something or someone cannot hear you. It drives me absolutely insane. -
Re: Gronberg defense playing forward It’s more about a fluidity of movement and cycling than it is forwards playing defense and defense playing forward in the offensive zone. The other most applicable area would be breakouts, where it’s as simple sometime F1, F2, and F3 aren’t your LW, C, and RW, which isn’t exactly “new.” In fact, I’m not sure any of it is really “new” if you look at old Soviet footage.

That’s what I’m saying. He seems like he runs the type of system that I look for in a coach, as well as being flexible and adaptable. I’m not too concerned with the lack of NA coaching experience, but that’s more because I like his quotes and believe he knows what he’s doing.
-
Aside from maybe lack of NA experience, where’s the catch on this guy?
-
There’s the context. So it sounds like it was the son who was/is terrified of him because he abuses him. Sorry if that’s already known, I don’t really follow NFL.
-
There’s clearly context missing. It would be interesting to know what it is.
-
This is tired and clearly written out of ignorance. Have you never had a boss that wasn’t clear about wanted to be done? Have you ever played a sport where the system wasn’t clear or the coach was all over the place? Have you ever been in coaching circles or coached any sport and seen how terrible some are at communicating? It has nothing to do with coddling. I’ve never coddled one of my athletes and I’m still a “communicator.” This idea of “old school” is still alive and well, only there’s a lot more that goes into a game plan so you’ve got to communicate exactly how you want things played. There’s still my way or the highway, only the my way is much more defined. All this millennial ***** is exactly that...*****.
