Not sure intermission Sprites would be recommended by nutritionists nowadays.
Oh, intermission soda is 100% a thing in the NHL. Surprised he would choose Sprite as caffeinated drinks are more typical.

How about a Calder Trophy, four Vezina Trophies and five Jennings Trophies, and he was a member of three Stanley Cup championships. He was also named to the First or Second All-Star Team on seven occasions?
The game was A LOT slower when Marty played
Easy to play 70+ games when your trap team allows 20 shots per game and slower players were using worse sticks.
Move aside, old man.
Gretzky isn't going around saying "I don't know why players these days can't just score 150+ points every season like I did".Easier to score goals like Gretzky when no one played defense and every team was scoring 8 goals a game. What's your point -- penalize Brodeur for his era? Why not penalize Gretzky and dock him hundreds of goals?

Did you just make up an argument to argue against? lolDo you know what it's like to play 70-80 NHL games as a goalle every season? It's not like checking in at the office, breaking for lunch, and going home. Anyone who questions the durability of brodeur simply bc he had a good defense is insane.
Was just addressing your first statement:Did you just make up an argument to argue against? lol
Dangle chimes in.
I agree with you, not the best of takes by them.And not surprisingly Adam Wylde goes with the lazy Andrew Berkshire style take. I don't mind Dangle, but Wylde is usually primed for some off base takes.
Not sure if these are the guys I'd want to validate your opinions either.
As usual, neither the old guys nor the young guys can see outside the parameters of their own generation.
There are guys in this league who could play 65 games instead of 45 without suffering meaningful negatives. There are also backups who can give you 40 games without meaningful negatives. Some guys are serious injury risks and others are not. Conventional wisdom is grounded in expert intelligence. So was conventional wisdom 20 years ago. All of these things can be true at once.
The only people who are mistaken are the ones insisting that there’s only one way to approach this game.
And not surprisingly Adam Wylde goes with the lazy Andrew Berkshire style take. I don't mind Dangle, but Wylde is usually primed for some off base takes.
Not sure if these are the guys I'd want to validate your opinions either. Especially if they're just doing hot takes of excerpts of the article.
