Is this the mexican hokkei thread?
Is he Cell key material?
>>77200770
When will Bettman expand to Mexico?
Mexico's economy is doing pretty well and they have like the 5th richest billionaire in the world.
>>77200844
Mexico has about twenty hockey fans, whereas Nicaragua has zero; so, Nicaragua is way more likely to get a team soon.
>no Queen Maud Land nhl team
fucking racists
that's a good player to rink ratio, mexicans must get a lot of ice time
>>77200854
I can consider myself one of them.
>>77200885
Does that consider rinks that aren't regulation size? There's a rink near my house but it's baby size.
>>77200854
>there are no fans there
>so we shouldn't put a team there
What's marketing for?

>half the population of the US
>not to forget the 100,000,000 million Mexians in the US
They could take over hockey if they wanted to.
>>77200923
Unlikely considering the height requirements for Hockey, I'm 1.70 and I regularly see people shorter than me. Mexico being short is no lie.
>>77200934
Might have to do with diet or something. I've known 3 Mexicans and 2 of them were super tall, but one was like half black.
>people shorter than 170cm

>>77201007

>>77200899
how big is the rink?
this one counts even though it's pretty small
mexico should open up a rink in some big elevation place, hockey parents would pay a lot for off season training in a high altitude place
>>77200923
already have
>>77200951
>>77200998
Not the same anon, but yeah, it's the diet. This last years with more food (and overweight) people tend to be 10cm taller at least. Now youngster are between 1.75 and 1.85 (except fucking me) and olders are shorter than that.
>>77201042
This one seems pretty good. I don't know about the anon, but I've seen 2 or 3 rinks like that in Mexico City. No idea other places. The city is like double of Denver of altitude, so I guess it could work

>>77202217
I'd be fine with this. too many goalers abuse the current rules and step intentionally into someone's path and flop for a penalty
If you're a goalie do you have to use a stick? Could you use like 2 blockers?
>>77202240
besides looking retarded, you would be an absolute rebound machine and it would be much harder to corral the puck and get play blown dead.
>>77202269
what about 2 gloves
>>77202269
What about two sticks then?
>>77202198
Reminds me of when Hongcouver injured Rinne in '15. Still pissed about that because he was in great form then.
what if a goalie just wore a big blocker that covers his entire body?

Yes Dan Blackburn did 2 blockers
>He retired after missing the entire 2003–04 NHL season due to a nerve injury sustained just before training camp to his left shoulder. He had nerve exploration surgery on March 31, 2004, then made an attempt to return to hockey, sporting a pair of blockers rather than the conventional blocker/catcher combination, as his injury rendered him incapable of rotating his glove hand.

Unlikely since he had the best rookie season since Ovechkin and even if he's a playoff bust he's still a formidable scorer and quite frankly Matthews is no Ovie, he isn't a dick and will still move his weight fairly against big guys like Ristolainen. He'll be fine.

>In an interview, Bennington revealed that he suffered sexual abuse from an older male friend when he was seven years old.[8] He was afraid to ask for help because he did not want people to think he was gay or lying, and the abuse continued until the age of 13.[3] The abuse and situation at home affected him so much that he felt the urge to kill and run away.[3] To comfort himself, he drew pictures, and wrote poetry and songs.[3] Later, he revealed the abuser's identity to his father, but chose not to continue the case after he realized the abuser was a victim himself

"Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal

There's something inside me
That pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear

I can't seem to find myself again
My walls are closing in

Other than Bieksa and Holzer these are all young guys whose best hockey is still ahead of them. Vatanen is the oldest of the good defenders, he just turned 26.

Draisaitl either signs for 9 mill and handicaps your team or he leaves for Germany and cucks you altogether, either way McCollerbone and Nugent bustkins cant carry you to the cup
>>77231855
If he's a fucking top 10 scorer consistently then $9,000,000 is a steal. Look how many points Stamkos, Perry and Giroux got this year and they all make 9M to 9.5M. Tarasenko makes 8M and he's only 2 points behind Draisaitl.

WHERE WAS MCMEME FOR THAT TOURNAMENT? PROBABLY CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE BY MASSIVE ANAL HEMORRHAGING WHICH WOULD BE BETTER THAN PLAYING FOR THE UNWIPED ASSHOLE ABYSS, LITERALLY WORSE THAN MOGADISHU, THAT IS EDMONTON.

What a laughably bad franchise, they mismanaged the cap worse than the hawks and all they got was a second round sweep exit.
So, can anyone think of a team in a worse position?

He's one of those players who cant handle the playoffs pressure.
He's not very versatile player either. On the pp He just stands always on same spot hoping opponent team couldn't figure out his best weapon which is very easy to take down.
If he wants to win stanley cup, he needs to change his playing style.

Pretty much always. Not wearing swimming trunks is a fucking hygiene related thing, it is easier to wash your skin than cloth, easier to carry bacteria and shieeet into sauna in cloths. Out of those rules basically showering before entering and sitting on towel are proper if we dismiss all obvious ones like not getting into sauna with street footwear or with fucking newspaper.
