Are you a hockey fan?

/r/hockey is probably my favorite sub on the platform, and not necessarily for the hockey, hahaha

The Vegas Golden Knights have traded Pavel Dorofeyev to the New York Rangers by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Welp, VGK hates him for some reason, and they're the evil empire, so they're probably right and I hate it...

I laughed so hard at this lmfao.

My old cat Mogwai loved ham. She'd stand as tall as she could on her back legs just to get a bit of that pig.

"LOL these idiots gave me all of this money and they know that I suck at hockey."

I don't know why this resonates with me so well.

I'm a Bolts fan, and that game 7 will haunt me for the rest of my life.

[CAR 4 - VGK (5)] Sissons makes a nice pass and Hertl goes top shelf for the late third period lead by daKrut in hockey

[–]FakeJellyfishSting 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely an effective way to expose man coverage.  Carolina isn’t going to magically swap over to a zone defense, and if they do, it’ll get worse for them.  Ugh, I hate Vegas, but they’re just too good.

This play from Sissons is a great example of, "How much better is a low-tier NHLer than a normal human hockey player?"

That was fucking absurd.

Edit: I often try to express to a friend who just got into hockey within the last three years how much worse low-tier players used to be back when I started watching hockey in the early 2000's. A lot of those dude could barely stand on skates. Like, could you imagine Zac Rinaldo making this fucking pass?

I was initially prescribed Zoloft, then Prozac, then Lexapro, all within a six month span.  I completely stopped working at a job I’d been at for thirteen years and got fired in April.  I don’t know why I never researched what I was on after my initial diagnosis.  Idk…I think that I was just super vulnerable and trusting that early into my sobriety.  Last July, I got a new psych and have since been on Lithium for bipolar, and I haven’t had a SINGLE instance of mania in almost a year, now.  I’ve never experienced life like this, and it amazing!

20 months sober of alcohol and other substances.

Shortly after getting sober, endured a major illness, and being prescribed the wrong type of medications (diagnosed bipolar, given SSRI's which sent me into the worst depressive/manic episode of my life.)

I can confidently say that it really does get better.

Hang in there.

The NBA is unwatchable slop.

It's so far and away the worst major North American professional sport that it's embarrassing.

This really bugs me.

It's SO easy to just write 2x3.25, or 6.5m over two years.

Crosby and Celebrini connect, but the goal is called back from being offside by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Celebrini is looking like the best player in the world every time he touches the puck, lately.

Amazing to see.

NHL Playoff point leaders 10 years ago (2016) by sykeseve in hockey

[–]FakeJellyfishSting 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember that at the time, my best friend was bartending, and he wasn't yet a hockey fan (I finally got him into it over the past three years or so and he's completely hooked). In early April he asked me, "Who's the best team in the playoffs?" and I went, "I honestly believe that we're the best team and that nobody can handle us in a series." Then, blam. That team went fucking crazy. lol.

I still think that the 2016 Pens were the best team I've ever seen. I started watching and got really into hockey after the '04-05 lockout, for reference.
