how was this a hockey player?
Unsarcastically rigged.NHL vets openly admit they gave him free passage because "He makes us so much money."A Leafs player was blackballed from the league because he cleanly body-checked him in 1981 or so.NHL is basically WWE.Frank Serevelli is talking about shit I didn't even know:NHL has all-Canadian referees refereeing both Frozen Four and Olympic games (NHL, not IIHF, declares referee assignments).Players are blackballed from hockey left and right, even when they're superior to certain other players.This is why Canadian parents send their 14 year old boys into Hockey Canada offices and tell them to let the creepy old men their slobber over their tummies and wee-wees: because otherwise they get blackballed.The NHL is basically like Hollywood. Except it's not run by a gay Jewish mafia, it's run by a gay Anglo-Canadian mafia.The truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
>>153579180>NHL has all-Canadian referees refereeing both Frozen Four and Olympic gamesFor a frame of reference, in out-of-conference NCAA contests (playoffs, tournaments, etc.), for ALL SPORTS, teams are REQUIRED to hire out-of-conference referees to insure (a) impartiality and (b) even the APPEARANCE of bias.The NHL, without apologies, sends a bunch of "proud Canadians" to allow Nathan MacKinnon to embellish, Cale Makar to slash, Conor McDavid to club guys in the back of the head, etc., etc.I've heard a lot of creepy, dark rumors about what goes on at Hockey Canada offices and hotels.I didn't know the rigging was this flagrant.Holy shit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrP8IQaLwDo
hockey was pussy shit before americhads invented checking
>>153579124Notice his points were all fake.Wasn't even close to the top 10 in GWGs.It was literally just to pump up a number for publicity and bugmen who love drooling over numbers.I like Gretzky. He was a fine player and seems like a good man.But his numbers are largely fake.
>>153579180Then why did 16 year old Gretzky dominate the 1978 U-20 World Juniors? Why did he dominate every best on best tournament he played in? >>153579216Non-Canadian refs just aren't good enough. See the blatant too many men that was missed in the Canada/Czech game>>153579241GWG is function of games played more than goals scored. Gretzky is tied for the most playoff GWG for example.
a professor that studies reaction time had him do a test and he scored so well they checked the machine if it was working rightsome think the guy doesn't process time the way a normal person does
>>153579280> U-20 World JuniorsThat's precisely the level where >hyper-training > athleticismIt's the same in every sport:At younger ages, the kids w/ all the private coaching and camps, etc, annhilate everybody.As you reach older ages, all that over-training advantages fades and you're left with the superior athletes.This is why Canada has 75% of first round picks yet only 42% of NHL rosters: because they're hyper-coached and spend 10x as much as any other country.But it ceases to be an advantage when you're 23 and everybody else catches up.
>>153580156Yes, the hyper training of>his dad>his backyardAnd funny how you ignore that a 16 year old out performed 19 year olds. At that age, even a single year of physical development is massive, let alone 3. Even more funny how you ignore everything else. Gretzky is the GOAT and if you don't accept that then McDavid is the GOAT.
