Claude Giroux calling people a “f***in pigeon” and cooing at them is probably my favorite chirp 🤣
-
#1 Unwritten rule: Don't Write down the unwritten rules on a white board
-
15:05 as a sharks fan, I can confirm that teams now run up the score with no mercy
-
I hate when a player throws a perfectly clean hit but then gets jumped by the opposing team. Drives me crazy...
-
I’ve said it for years, decades. The handshake line at the end of a series is the classiest tradition in all of professional sports. It’s perfect. It shows so much of who these men are, how much they respect each other, and it gives the fans a positive example of the kind of people they should want to be. It’s leadership at its finest. There is only one moment in all of professional sports that was more magnanimous, and that’s when Joe Sakic handed the cup to Ray Bourque to enjoy his first skate.
-
When your teammate is in a fight, you are obligated to grab a “dance partner” even if it’s just to wrap them up. Can’t be the only one not mixing it up 😂
-
'Muted goal celebration' made me instantly think of the Patrick Roy presser after the game where Duchene scored #30.
-
Current favourite chirping story: during the 2010 Olympics my Norway was playing Canada and before a drop one of the Norwegian players said something to Rick Nash, who responded with: "I see you're using my stick"
-
I'm older. And the "code" as far I ever knew was yeah, you can go after a guy who slaps it into an empty net. But you push hm. or grab his jersey, or if you want to make a statement you drop the gloves. The "code" has never been " try and hit near his head with a stick"
-
I’m old enough to remember when you could see 2 or 3 bench clearing brawls in a single game. I’m all for players protecting their own, but it feels like we only hear players talk about “the code” these days when a player had to fight after a clean hit or because “he celebrates to much”
-
I honestly love how much Shannon clearly enjoyed his "adoption" by the Ducks. He's brought them up almost every video since he went and I'm all for it 😂
-
You forgot the Don't hit the rookie unwritten rule (Big hits on rookies, vets step up to drop gloves)
-
Running up the score is totally justified in this era where comebacks happen all the time. It was different when you could consistently lock a game down after a one or two goal lead
-
In the KHL handshake lines happen after every game even during the regular season and preseason games. The only exception is when the game ends with fighting and chirping, then referees ask the teams to leave the ice separately
-
I remember some of those old fights and saying " he got 5 minutes for fighting and the other guy got 5 minutes for receiving."
-
when I played AA as a goalie I got a dress down because I did not call out an opposing player having stick up going around goal, I did not get it until a season later catching a concussion from the exact same play... self policing (even team mates) is one of the best parts of hockey and I hope that never goes away
-
'Never touch the cup before you win it' is common to a lot of sports. I've certainly heard mention of it in Football (Soccer)
-
regarding the celebrating after a goal when i grew up playing i remember being told act like you've done it before, nothing new just simple hands up and group huddle like you said
-
I’m really digging the “Weekend at Bernies” vibe! Also, I think you need to bring back the word scrum. If anyone complains, we, your fans, will be happy to get into a “SCRUM” with the opposers on your behalf!
-
This was a fun video. I've been watching hockey all my life so I knew all of them, but I still enjoyed seeing them on a white board.
