"When in doubt... use the winkie."
Considering the cast of characters we have here, I always figure the winkie is implied on each post. #SarcasticBastards

The sticks these days, I'm not sure an idiot like Iafrate would have had the wherewithal to figure out how to use them. Dumb as a post, that one. MacInnis... oy... I wonder what he could have done with a stick like Petey's. Ovechkin is just a Soviet experiment to create a real Ivan Drago, who just escaped the lab and became a hockey player.Cousin Strawberry wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2025 8:45 pmAll that said...his scrawny twig-like child body was able to POUND the thing like those 230 lb beasts
He's a special talent Mëds. YOU are going to have to come to grips with the fact that he is a stalled ELITE center
The PP setup the 2010-2012 team used on occasion with Salo. He'd setup on the LT side or middle point, and while the Sedins cycled down low Salo would quietly exit the zone and come back in from center ice with half a head of steam on the RT side and walk into a feed from Hank. Those were huge.Carl Yagro wrote: ↑Thu Jan 09, 2025 11:45 am Meh, I added at least 15mph to my muffin with these new tech fancy twigs. Just about any NHLer could probably hit at least high 80's or low 90's with these sticks and some mechanics tweaks.
Also... when are you ever going to get a chance to step into one like that from the blue line during a game to generate that kind of speed? Not even on an empty-netter. Can he even hit one during a game? Who cares? Just put it into the net. They all count.
Quit posting high, Cuz.
Didn't Salo break a teammate's leg from one of his slap shots? He unleashed it and one of the Canucks standing in front doing a screen got the full blast.Mëds wrote: ↑Thu Jan 09, 2025 11:57 amThe PP setup the 2010-2012 team used on occasion with Salo.

Didn't do it often though, and Salo was on record saying he was nervous to unload his biggest shot because he didn't want to hit a teammate in front of the net.
