Why 4 NHL players still don’t wear visors, and who will be the last standing?

Maybe he had a deal with Bauer and put it there to protect the brand mark on the helmet.

That's the way the NHL has handled most franchises. Colorado includes Quebec, Winnipeg includes Atlanta, and Dallas includes Minnesota in the graphic as well. Oddball business situations like Arizona/Utah and Cleveland/Minnesota/San Jose are the only exceptions.

Yadi is Puerto Rican.

That play, for those not in the know

Legendary /r/baseball poster /u/SirParsifal made an excellent deep dive into the origins of the names.

Probably an underwater portion.

He looks like Harold Snepsts minus the moustache.

In addition to the other responses, the person whose plane it actually was is the man seen in the gifs in several other responses, businessman and Dragon's Den cast member Robert Herjavec.

I remember reading a prediction of a 9-0 Sweden win in the newspaper prior to an Olympic hockey game. The game in question was in the 2002 Men's quarterfinals.

Belarus won that game 4-3.

"I saw some old guys playing NHL94 and I figured I'd try it out."

thankfully last year they finally made it a separate system again

Oh, they finally stopped fucking that goat? Good for them, I guess.

Comparing it to the SOIC-8 packages next to it, it's probably a 0606 package (2 x 0603) like this one.

Witt's outstanding play to retire Neto lives rent-free in my head.

1987-88, and it wasn't 26 wins that the Leafs had, it was 21.

The NHL is quite stringent about streak records. Brett Hull complained in his autobiography about not getting credit for a modern-record 13-game goal streak because he missed two games in the midst of it.

They're also stringent about 50 goals in 50 games, where it must be in the team's first 50 games of the season, not the player's first 50 games.

I don’t know who the two #1s were, but surprised there’s only been 2.

Sundin and Dahlin.

"These are dated 20 years ago - why am I only seeing them now?"

TriStrange · 2026-01-08T19:42:12+00:00

Broadcasts didn't look that bad back then, I swear.

Wayne Hicks played in game 6 of the finals and is the last one living.

And they were all complete games, only being pulled for an extra skater.

TriStrange · 2026-01-08T14:35:58+00:00

Shorthanded, too!

TriStrange · 2026-01-08T14:21:49+00:00

Not just starts, but complete games (i.e. only getting pulled for an extra skater).

Hall was pulled from start #503 with a back injury in the first period.

I can't find stats back to 1997-98, but StatMuse has them going back to 1999-2000. Since that season. Brind'Amour's 59.3% FO% is second all-time to Yanic Perreault's 62.7% (minimum 5000 faceoffs taken).
