McDavid does better acting than any actor on Lifetime
I think hockey is great but we shouldn’t go so far as to blowing these guys up as “the best athletes”. It’s more like the best athletes of those that can afford the sport.
William Nylander wouldn’t have even made my varsity football team. Now let’s imagine a D1 football player learning to hit someone on skates. The sport wouldn’t exist anymore due to everyone getting concussed…
Two entirely different sports bro
@@WeePinbell3 Thanks Master of the obvious.
Give kids in poor neighborhoods of any US city skates, pads, ice time, and folks like William Nylander wouldn’t even make their high school squad.
Watch the movie “42” and you’ll understand what I’m talking about…
@@WeePinbell3 I think it’s starting to click for you my friend.
The NFL has a playing field similar to a hockey rink and the premise is the same. —get the ball to the goal.
The MLB has ball and striking object just like the NHL’s puck and stick. Reaction time in both sports take the same level of hand eye coordination.
The UFC has fighting and so does the NHL.
The NBA has a court size similar to hockey and has a ball and bucket similar to hockey.
The common denominator in all these sports is that they have rags to riches stories…
So yes, if hockey is accessible to everyone regarding ice time and gear specifically, you’d see a different demographic as a whole.
Oh and Yes, Nylander still doesn’t make the team…
Nah Netflix should’ve made this
Only 8 episodes?
Whats the song in the trailer?
