If Fleury was half as good from 2010-2015 as he is right now, we’d be using terms like “eight-time Stanley Cup champion Sidney Crosby."
And I'd be sick."I went over the facts in my head, and admired how much uglier the situation had just become. Over the years I've learned that ignorance is more than just bliss. It's freaking orgasmic ecstasy".- Harry Dresden, Blood Rites

Re: NHL 2017.1: We turn over a new Leaf and still find a Penguin
Went to Game 5 of Vegas/San Jose in LV. What a fun atmosphere and environment. That city is bonkers over the Knights right now. Talked to so many different locals who had rarely (or never) watched hockey before the Knights arrived, and now those people watch every game, etc.
While winning makes catching on and buying in a lot easier, those LV residents take a heck of a lot of pride having their team “Vegas Born”.
As a hockey fanatic, it was really cool to see firsthand the game growing and impacting another community. Hearing all of these new hockey fans talk so highly of the excitement of the game, etc was really cool.
Oh, and that city is perfect for hockey. One big party in the stands.AF 99

So, since this story was rather well received, here is the sequel. In 2004, I worked the World Championship in Czech Republic out of a refugee camp and was a part of a fight involving the 74-year old Soviet coaching legend Viktor Tikhonov. https://t.co/85padGNESx

I love the pictures of crying Pens fans. You just won the Cup twice in a row. You don't get to cry. I mean maybe about living in PA but not anything hockey-related. :P
