  1. It's not really a strange movement at all and it's perfectly logical to hold the glove fingers up with the T of the glove point upward in the majority of situations. The puck is almost always coming from the ice upward to the glove and it's more natural to catch from that position compared to the older style goalies who had their gloves more down and to the side because you'd have to windmill your arm to catch the puck which would more often than not allow the puck to go past you when you were moving. When you have to be in perfect position and play the percentages, it's better to have your hands up like most goalies do now since you're in a better middle position.
  2. Strange how none of this logic applied to us when we were lying our way into war in Iraq etc.
  3. It really sparked the golden age of bulletin board fandom haha. It was a nice change from the pre-lockout times.
  4. Once I saw Trouba as the one D-man back, I knew I was in for an embarrassing backcheck.
  5. I like this look a lot. it has a nice mix of throwback and modern. I wouldn't mind seeing black fingers on the gloves but I think it's cool as is.
  6. If I were the coach I'd be telling every player to go out for their shift with the goal of spearing someone's sack and just repeat that over and over again.
  7. There comes a point where too much modesty creates a bunch of walking canned intermission interview answers though. Growing up we'd watch the VHS hockey tapes that would show Theo Fleury's first goal celebration, showing Tie Domi sitting on his stick like Tiger Williams, and Selanne throwing his glove up in the air to shoot it etc, and as kids we'd all try to emulate that stuff. It made things fun, and that fun has always been the greatest part about hockey despite all the hard work anyone puts into it. I wouldn't expect everyone to go crazy, but I'm more in the position that people shouldn't have to hold back because they want to be perceived a certain way. In any case, Lafreniere is most likely under a lot of pressure right now to be an impact player, and if he can let loose a little when he's comfy, so be it.
  8. This is an area where Buch showed great improvement (he used to look like he just got yelled at his dad for not scoring a nicer goal no matter what happened). So maybe there is hope for Lafreniere.
  9. Looks like if you tried to make a mashup with the New York Islanders and the Rangers. Simple can be done right but this feels more like clipart than thought out minimalism.
  10. The plate on my collarbone tingled when I saw the hit...Hope that wasn't the case.
  11. Definitely one of my favorite places to play which I was lucky to do quite a bit.
  12. Not a fan of the Columbus Blue Jacket gloves they used. The Rangers have had a very specific glove color scheme for a long time and they could have remixed that instead of changing it completely, but oh well.
  13. I think the lack of red collar could work but not if there was so much blue.
