I see people complaining the fine is too small, but I have no idea how much money players in some Ukrainian league make. I wouldn't be surprised if they're paid in vodka and sadness.

I don't even know of any racist gestures except the Asian eye thing that people did in kindergarten.

He was yelling at a black player and then mimicked peeling and then eating a banana. I don’t know what he was yelling because I can’t lipread pinko.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

Ahhhh ok. i could see that one. Never woulda thought of that.

Yeah, we're way more advanced in the states. We just throw actual bananas on the ice.

Pantomiming is for losers. Real props or gtfo.

European socce is miles ahead of us when it comes to overt racism.

But we’re talking about real sports.

What the heck is ₴ for a currency? dollars expressed in complex numbers?

I first read "Nieuwendyk vs. Modano". Too bad, that could've been even more fun.

I went to one of these games maybe 15 years ago. The Hanson Brothers were there. Gary Cheevers played goalie. Some of the older guys playing were slooow. At this point, I don't remember who all was there. One dude had just retired, and he was noticeably faster than everyone else.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

It's a bit sad that I know all those guys so well.

Old.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

Yeah but was he for or against it?

This looks like a video game glitch

It being so quiet also makes it more magical.

Every now and then the NHL looks like a beer league.

McDavid did it again.

[slaps]

Man, watching Ovechkin chase Gretzky and watching McDavid do things no human should be able to do really does make hockey awesome.

[ToddM]

McDavid's got a fairly decent chance of hitting 2000 points. Maybe even 4000 if he pulls a Gordie Howe.

The latest "who didn't he play for" quiz is up. I got 10/16 on this one. These were mostly guys in my hockey wheelhouse, but a few started their days a bit before my time. Guys like Amonte and Damphousse were already established vets by 1993.

10/16 too, in some questions I was like "but he played for all of them".
