Weave Posted July 25 Report Posted July 25 I think Ive mentioned this before, but he seems slightly built for a hockey player. I can see why he’s got a notorious injury history. 2 1 Quote

Maybe that's his issue. Has he built up his muscles too much for his frame? (Kind of like how Joe Klecko did back in the day for the J-E-S-T jest Jest JEST.) Quote

Completely healthy he is a mid to low number one or a high number two. Hard to know for sure, however, since he’s never been completely healthy for more than sixty games. 1 Quote
SabreFinn Posted July 25 Report Posted July 25 With his history of injuries, and type of injuries, I would prefer other activities than golf. Just my opinion. Quote

I can see why he’s got a notorious injury history. While I haven’t had a whole lot of up close interaction with NHL players, everything I’ve seen suggests all these dudes are super thin. I thought Josh looked above average in musculature for a hockey player. Edited July 25 by inkman Quote

Always say, if you designed the perfect shinny hockey player in the lab from the ground up, that’s Josh Norris Throw that toque on and get out there on the club rink and embarrass everybody Quote

First of all, shinny implies no contact , free wheeling so obviously Connor McDavid would be unstoppable. Second, Norris’ game is high end, two way so he’d be lost. Third, sorry for the auto-correct, I missed that. Fourth, not surprised you took it personally, have a good weekend. 1 Quote

If McDavid didn’t dominate it would be the guy whose parents couldn’t afford ice hockey so he spent fifteen years playing ball hockey while playing on the pond in the winter. Those guys have sick hands and can do incredible things with the puck. Quote

#freejame Posted July 25 Report Posted July 25 All you’ve gotta do is look at their ass to see that all of the Norris men are built like hockey players. Quote
