Adam Mcquaid (via hohohoforcarlo)

McQuaid is so strange how he barely speaks and always seems so shy but right when he is on the ice he will literally try to fight everyone and look like he is going to eat you

what hockey players can do: skate, dangle, flip the puck, snipe, lay a mean check, stickhandle so fast my eyes cant keep up

what hockey players cant do: count to five

Because it’s important, Dawn Braid just became the first woman to coach full-time in the NHL. You go, Dawn; you go, Coyotes!

#literally #like the fact is i can see a news article about kane and sexual assault #and half stop and think about which rapist kane it is like #honest to fucking god this league and the #media and so many fans are so disgusting and fucking scummy (via @nyctarian)  

NHL players are my fave because they’re literally socially inept teenage momma’s boys that are suddenly thrown a bunch of money and expected to live by themselves

I actually can’t stop laughing

As you can tell I’m pretty passionate about my ice cream

Three of the four elements are represented in types of hockey; Air hockey (air), field hockey (earth), ice hockey (water). Fire hockey needs to be a thing.

fire hockey 100% does not need to be a thing

Yes. Yes it does.

Fire hockey already exists.  Welcome to pelota purépecha, or Mayan Fireball hockey.

…this is the most awesome thing I’ve ever seen.

#ONLY THE AVATAR #MASTER OF ALL FOUR HOCKEY TYPES

Understanding NHL play-by-play announcers: a Masterpost

D to D: not a gay porn thing, defensemen to defensemen

Fans on it: when a player completely misses the puck, which is usually right in front of them. when this happens point and laugh.

Dropping the shoulder: refers to someone throwing a clean hit, if the shoulder is dropped that means they’re aiming away from the head. 

Sends it deep: also not a gay porn thing, refers to someone trying to clear the puck out of their zone, usually happens during a power play

pass cut: someone was being stupid and decided to pass to a guy and didn’t notice the 6 foot + grown man RIGHT IN THEIR WAY.

The slot: a place on the ice right in front of the net where people score a lot. if the other team ends up in yours, just start crying.

a couple of finns: no fish are on the ice, just people from finland

The draw/drop: a faceoff

[blank] is riding him hard: defending him closely, very possibly a gay porn thing

good look: has surprisingly little to do with the eyes, basically a good shot

tape to tape: a clean pass, refers to the tape on the stick blade.

where momma hides the cookies: reference to the top shelf, as in the puck goes into the net high. sometimes they’re gluten free cookies.

tumbling muffin: Boston Bruins announcer Jack Edwards loves these, they probably sell them at Dunkin Donuts. Or David Krejci saved the bruins asses again and sent the puck own the ice. either way. mostly a boston thing.

Female hockey players who have participated with NHL team activities as of 2014

“I want to grow the sport and this is a step in doing that.” - Hilary Knight

“Ultimately, it is about the sport of hockey. It’s not about men’s hockey and women’s hockey. If we can build the sport in any way and if that helps ten little girls to play hockey, then it’s paid off.” - Jon Copper, Tampa Bay Lightning coach

Knight, St.Pierre, Szabados, Reddon and Schleper were invited to attend a team practice. Rheaume played two pre-season games for the Lightning after being signed as a free agent for the 92/93 and 93/94 seasons.
