Joe Thornton’s longevity is just mind-boggling. The Bruins drafted him as I was finishing 7th grade. He was the last player from the ‘97 draft to retire, and he also outlasted every player from the ‘98, ‘99, and 2000 drafts. His brother taught at my high school, so we used to go to games and then get to meet all the players after; those are real good memories. Happy retirement!

So, been seeing this news about Adam Johnson in a Euro hockey league and "freak accident"

Few articles mentioned exactly what happened. I guess there was a video of it out there.

I finally googled to see what actually happened and saw the headline "neck cut by skate". I didnt watch the video.

Fuck thats awful.

I saw that in the NHL years back (forgot who it was) but it didn't lead to death. That was terrifying.

Fuck

Lol those Dallas stars jerseys are fucking embarrassing.

RIP Arizona Coyotes
