I can't run out in the kitchen and have a hobnob every time they do something dramatic on TV. It's hockey. It's 60 minutes of dramatic. Figures I discover that in overtime. #hockey

Regardless of what you think of today's results, I think we can all thank the #hockey gods that neither of the close games ended in penalties. Just about any other way of deciding a winner - number of total letters in the names of everyone on the squad, a debate on Heidegger's hermeneutics, a figure-skate-off, whatever - would be better.

Obviously, no one wants an athlete to get hurt. But I could really do without the men's hockey commentators repeating over and over again what amounts to, "Won't anyone think of NHL owners?"

I'm not caught up on today's games (so shhh!), but I really enjoyed yesterday's Latvia-Germany match, especially the third period.

As a former netminder, I love these rare backup #Goalie stories, and even rarer cases when they actually get called into action. I could dream of sitting in the stands of Maple Leaf Gardens in the mid 80s. Two freak injuries to the home team goalies prompts an announcement, "Is there a goalie in the house?" I slowly stand up and yell, "I'll do it."
I then proceed to shut out the Oilers for the rest of the game, including 3 breakaways by Gretzky. He shakes his head slowly after every unsuccessful attempt.
Hey... it coulda happened...

I think I prefer the #hockey on Saturday morning to Saturday night.
I would like to listen to the clean broadcast play-by-play announcer audio with noise-cancelling headphones at a hockey game, rather than the often-incomprehensible booming echo over the arena's PA system mixed with screaming people.
That sounds a lot like an assistive technology.
Possibly once existing as a tiny AM radio station, BYOR.
Does it exist today?

Good Morning #Canada
I'm in Toronto staying at my daughter's apartment and just on our way out for breakfast. This afternoon we're off to see the Toronto Sceptres take on the Seattle Torrent. First time for me at a #PWHL game and I'll update you later on my impressions.
Women's hockey in Canada has a long history dating back to the 1890s with teams supported by colleges and universities. They played in hoop skirts because hockey pants would have been scandalous, but originally hitting was allowed.
The attached article reports on a golden era during #WWI when Women's Hockey had some commercial success. Actually it was about exploitation and the commercial success only benefited the male organizers.

Good Morning #Canada
On this day in 1955, the passion of French Canadian #Hockey fans spilled over into the streets outside of the Montreal Forum. The Richard Riot was named after the Canadiens star player Maurice (Rocket) Richard. Following a violent altercation on March 13th, in which Richard hit a linesman, #NHL president Clarence Campbell suspended him for the remainder of the 1954–55 NHL season (3 games) and the entire playoffs. Montreal fans protested that the suspension was too severe and the Francophone fan base claimed the length of the suspension was motivated by Richard's French Canadian ethnicity. On March 17th the Canadiens played Boston, with the Rocket watching from the players bench in street clothes. The Forum was surrounded by chanting fans and when Clarence Campbell took his usual seat at the Forum the anger ignited. The resulting riot damaged neighbourhood stores and buildings, and led to dozens of arrests.

Natšlie Mlýnkovš interception, drives the net, and goal against Maschmeyer. Then slides herself headfirst into the net too.
Be the puck you want to see in the world.
