I will never understand how "Teodors Bļugers" was changed to Teddy Blueger when he got to the NHL.
That's the single dumbest shit I've seen with a name in the NHL, worse than Václav Prospal being called "Vinny" 😂
@JFreshHockey Players tend to shoot more eagerly, even when being pressured, and defensive pressure can inadvertently screen Helley. This doesn’t matter as much to more aggressive goalies whose bodies cover more of the net from afar, than it does to Helley who is already practically in the net
@JFreshHockey IMO his performance diminishes in the playoffs because of how far back he stays in the crease. His atypical style works better during the regular season when he faces more odd man rushes and lateral puck movement, as he won’t be caught out of position, but in the playoffs,
@Giants Things might look bad now but don’t worry guys the season will really turn around when we win 3 meaningless games from week 13-15 and knock ourselves out of contention for a good pick again
