Miracle came out 20 years ago this week so I’ve been watching some videos on the making of it. They talk about how they wanted to make it as authentic as possible, scripting the plays on the ice just as they happened. But for all the attention to detail, in the five seconds they show Finland at the end of the movie they show them wearing grey jerseys, when they very clearly wore white for that game. Right template and everything, just the wrong color. Odd miss.

I said that when the movie came out. It's not like there wasn't any photographic evidence of what those jerseys looked like. The other thing that bothered me was the buzz sound when someone scored. That doesn't happen. Other than those two things, it was a pretty perfect movie.

I thought there was an issue getting the rights to use those jersey color schemes.
 
Fleury ceremony tonight was great.

the bummer? Wild owner leipold announces 5k donation to fleurys charity of choice, a Native American org in St. Paul. Then they announce that fleury is donating 10k.

thanks, billionaire owner who had a thin blue line night.
 
Rielly will have in person hearing in nyc tomorrow after his hit to the head of the player who slapshotted an empty net goal.

no matter the outcome, I’m sure leafs fans will handle it well

Isn't this hit very similar to what Dale Hunter did in the playoffs against the Islanders way back? And didn't Hunter get 10 games?

If it is that hit you're talking about yes. But I don't think the NHL will consider that hit since it was a while ago. The current standard would be Perron's hit that happened this season. But I think 10 games would be also reasonable. Intentional head hits like this has no place in the game.

Yeah but he took a slap shot at an empty net so he deserved it.

Jagr's #68 retired by the Pens tonight. My favorite little story is they leading up to the draft, Jagr was telling teams he wasn't sure about coming to the states anytime soon if at all. Except the Penguins. He really wanted to play with Super Mario. He told them, he would come immediately.
 
I'm not sure if the Rangers were good today or the Islanders were just BAD today...

It really seemed like the 10 seconds of OT summed up how the NYI played in the 2nd half of the game today.
