@BoltsBreakdown Watching all his NHL games has made me more worried. Usually you can see flashes with a lot of guys, and with him the only flashes are some nice hands, some physicality and a nice shot when we see it. But in today’s day and age you need to keep up with the speed of the game.
The Hart Memorial Trophy finalists have arrived! 🏆 #NHLAwards
The trophy is awarded annually to the player adjudged to be the most valuable to his team.
@fball_money@MurphysLaw74 No one thinks that American teams are made up of all Americans lmao.
Same BS as me saying that I’ve met many Canadian fans who believe that Canadian teams are all from Canada.
@fball_money@MurphysLaw74 all of that is completely untrue 😂😂
Let’s go back to Toronto fans booing the national anthem as their star player is an American lmao
