I dove into the numbers and found six NHL defensemen playing great defensive hockey in tough minutes - and not getting the recognition for it yet. Including Kaiden Guhle and Cam York, hopefully you can start giving them some at @dailyfaceoff.bsky.social www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/6-nhl-d...

Six NHL defensemen not getting enough recognition for their defensive play

Some are showing signs of elite play, while a few are already there and should be much bigger names.

Well, it was right when COVID hit, so super depressing and boring, and it was also right when I graduated so I got that good ol existential crisis of my career trajectory getting stunted.

Why does Canada always pick terrible songs for goal songs (excluding Halifax)?

Might be the easiest 3-slot for a Tim’s pick I’ve ever seen

I had a bit of fun pulling from soccer and basketball to come up with ideas for an in-season tournament in hockey for @dailyfaceoff.bsky.social www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/what-co...

PWHL shot share update after December 17th: Ottawa and Boston held fairly even in that regard on Tuesday, so neither team sees significant improvement from where they stood before

According to Yahoo, Nick Suzuki is having an all-time fantasy night

Well, I guess Domi isn’t on a bad contract anymore

Yeah, that contract was a sneaky bad one, even though the ceiling ain’t that high

Woke up to find out Magdalena Bay were touring in Toronto, but the tickets are $120!!! How are we at the point where smaller indie bands charge that much for concerts

Not to take away from Laughton’s accomplishment, but scoring four goals when two are in empty nets is barely a hat trick, never mind a four-goal game

Obviously playing the Ducks vs. the Devils would make it a bit easier, but rhe Leafs definitely missed Jake McCabe. Might have even been more missed than Matthews based on his defensive impact.

The Ducks not getting Dostal off until the final minute reminds me of when goalies used to only get pulled in the last minute.

I wrote about Connor Bedard’s struggles this season and some of the potential causes of it for @dailyfaceoff.bsky.social www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/whats-c...

Is The Holdovers considered a Christmas movie? If so, it’s my new favourite Christmas movie

I'm going to try my best to start churning out some form of team-based analytics for PWHL teams this season with whatever data is available. Right now, that's just shot share at all strengths, but these should get a bit less neanderthalic as more data becomes available

Only the Cowboys could screw up a blocked punt

It took me all of two minutes of tonight’s action for Zach Benson to hit on my Tims picks

In what world does the TTC think closing a subway track from both sides of Union Station is a good idea?

While it’s hard to overpay for a goalie like Shesterkin, it does feel like a bit of one when the entire goalie market established itself in the $8 million range in the past year, including the one goalie who is definitively better than him in Hellebuyck

I usually like to wait until I’ve listened to all of the songs on my Wrapped playlist to not spoil myself, but give me a number between 1-100 and I’ll give you a song

Trouba’s career arc is kind of hilarious in how he went from being a defenseman with great underlying numbers but wasn’t played enough to a defenseman who had terrible underlying numbers but is played too much. Has almost never actually played in the role he’s capable of at that current time
