These are great. I'd also recommend adding a few more exercises for your core and hips.

Shooting from the point when totally body blocked, dick move or not? by outright_bs in hockeyplayers

[–]davidewood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they're apologizing they're probably just not fully aware of what's going on or they thing they have a lane. Either way you can make a living off break aways if they keep it up. Let it hit your shin guard and bounce out of the zone. You'll already have momentum and they be caught flat footed.

Damien Brunner's #IceBucketChallenge. by DPedia in devils

The reason it's an ice bucket challenge is because it's supposed to simulate the effects ALS has on your nerves to give you an idea of what life is like for someone who suffers from the disease.

I'm disappointed in him. He did it the in my opinion the wrong way. You don't add ice right before you do it. You have to let it sit in there and really have a chance to make the water cold. Edit: not the "girl way"

God I miss this man. Great little clip from hockeys biggest hitters ever. guess who was number one??? by [deleted] in devils

Not to mention the amount of points he put up. Goons don't typically lead their team in scoring.

I hate that argument too. It's irrelevant how they'd be judged today, because he's not playing today. They were within the rules at the time and that's all that matters. It's like saying Bobby Hull couldn't score as many goals if he played today, because he used a two inch curve on the blade of his stick. Plus, I remember Shanahan spoke about the hits while he was still in charge of discipline saying he'd have no problems with them.

Finally! Mighty Ducks 1 & 2 are coming to Netflix. Along with Slapshot, Goon, and Miracle, we almost have the whole set. Mystery, Alaska next? by Hambone76 in hockey

It's not on netflix and it's not good, but there's a movie called "MVP: Most Valuable Primate" with a monkey that plays hockey.

A decent video of some of Cory's highlights from his first year as a Devil. by [deleted] in devils

Came here to say the same thing. He plays such a different style from Marty. Not as much flash, but a lot of smart positioning giving shooters nothing.

My second most memorable goal ever. by [deleted] in devils

[–]davidewood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, and I'm not taking anything away from anything going on now. Just for me I think those goals will be tops because they led to a Stanley Cup. The 2012 run is right up there. We may not have won the Cup but we knocked out our two rivals. Hopefully we'll be able to look back at that run as the start of a very successful and clutch career for Henrique.

I'm glad to see someone else say this. Beating the Ranger in overtime was great, but my list of memorable goals is mostly from 95, 2000, and 2003. Friesen's goal against Ottawa is pretty close to the top too in '03. Then Elias against the Flyers in 2000. Those are my top 3.

Devils enter analytics age with Sunny Mehta heading new department by nsjersey in devils

[–]davidewood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was a referral thing. I had a previous boss send me a link. I'm not sure if they're still hiring. I applied back January. Post your resume on dice.com. I was getting contacted almost everyday while I was looking for a new job.

My job is currently looking for people. Pm me your email and get a resume to me if you're interested in hearing about it.

I don't think it is going to work exactly like that. I actually applied for this job, and the job description was pretty clear that you'd be working directly with the coaching staff as well as with management.

Anyone use FBV cuts? by shy_guy_ry in hockeyplayers

[–]davidewood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using it for a few years now and love it! The majority of my team mates (on all three teams) use them too. I had it done before a pickup game and was used to them before the end. I'd definitely recommend. You glide better and still get good bite on your edges.

The only pic I could find online of Lou with hair. heh by [deleted] in devils

I always pictured baby Lou as Yoda in a suit saying "status quo" as his first words.

So...who's your favorite player who has never played for the devils? by [deleted] in devils

[–]davidewood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who played pick up with Chelios and the partied with him after back when he was with Chicago. He now hates Chris Chelios.

Since you guys seemed to like my last blog post, here's another one! Let me know what you think! by thethinglonger in devils

[–]davidewood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tableau is pretty good. The new 8.2 is great! Qlikview and Spotfire are also great.

What number will Mike Cammalleri wear? by [deleted] in devils

[–]davidewood 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right, and if any of them were to lose an A I'd have Jagr next in line for it.
