I never sat on the ends behind the nets. I was too afraid to get a line drive to the teeth. Several people got hurt getting hit with a puck.

True Story - My dentist in California was a hockey fan and had season tickets for the San Jose Sharks. When he went to a game he
would stand in line as the players entered the stadium and hand them a business card and told them to look him up when they retired. :cool:

I had some Wisdom tooth extractions done by an oral surgeon in Irving. I had watched one of the Dallas Stars players who got injured in the previous evening's game show up in the office. The doctor mentioned that he had treated a hockey player but didn't know that I had seen the game where the problem happened. He spittered and sputtered when I came up with the name that I wasn't supposed to know.

They should just replace all there teeth with implants ... then all they have to do is screw a new one in.

Hockey players kneel during both anthems.

No hockey for me.

Well, I guess I don't need to learn about hockey now. More time for reading.

I noticed on the scoreboard of one game I happened to turn on the phrase "we skate for black lives".

At least there is still golf to watch, if you consider golf a sport.

Time to abandon all pro sports and use that time to reload... it will serve you much better on several fronts. :tiphat:
