Sabres get Evander Kane in trade Stafford is involved in this trade - he's now a Jet. I think the Jets did very well here.

ESPN 30 for 30 - Soviet Hockey Discussion
Ray77 replied to MafiaMan's topic in Non-collegiate sports
I finished watching this last night. Amazing what Fetisov had to do to get released from his contract in Russia and to be able to play in the NHL. The interaction between Lamoriello and Fetisov was good stuff - Lamoriello calling Fetisov daily making sure he was still alive or not shipped to Siberia, meeting in a hotel room and having to write to each other because the room was bugged, all the promises made to Fetisov and then once he delivered on the ice the promises were reneged, Fetisov not defecting because he wanted to do it "the right way", etc. These are things you think just happen in the movies! Going into watching this I was assuming that it would be about the Miracle on Ice game and that the show would lead up to that game, and end with that game (or right after). I'm sure that's because of how I view the game from my American point of view (how could this have been about anything else?!). I really liked how the 1980 Olympics were at about the halfway point and they went on and talked a lot about what happened afterwards. Very well done documentary! I want more! -
No thanks.

BOOOOO. Is there a thumbs down button?!

All that I'd heard before watching this was about Viktor Tikhonov. I'd never heard or known about Anatoli Tarasov. That was very interesting to me, to see the "birth" of Russian hockey. -
Wow, that Lokomotiv video is pretty powerful.

Per Herb Brooks: Great moments... are born from great opportunity. And that's what you have here, tonight, boys. That's what you've earned here tonight. One game. If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we skate with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest hockey team in the world. You were born to be hockey players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the Soviets have. Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it. So that would make it 18 of 20 in a 20 game series!

Did you happen to watch this? I DVR'd it and late last night got about halfway through but it was waaay too late and it was time to go to bed. I'll be watching later this week. Curious to hear your thoughts if you saw it.

A couple stories I though worth sharing. NHL fines P.K. Subban $2K Evander Kane absence tied to suit
-
But Brady didn't do enough to win me any money in my Playoff Fantasy Football pool, so I can't accept the position you're taking!
-
Not arguing for or against Brady or for or against Butler. But whether or not they should have been in that position is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is they were in that position and the kid stepped up and made a play that closed it out and won them the Super Bowl.

If their coach has anything to say about it, they'll be playing for his alma mater one day!

The 1st time they do it in a game it's not a penalty. If they would do it a 2nd time, it would be a penalty. They only threw the fish on the ice after the 1st goal, correct? The same thing happens in AK.
-
HA - nope. We just want you to have the inside scoop on your favorite current Sioux goalie's future, that's all!
-
Unless they trade Subban. It could be that they brought up Subban now to showcase him and see if they can get any takers. Chiarelli is looking make a trade soon here for the stretch run. If Subban gets dealt, that makes Zane all that more important to the Bruins.
