Hockey is cool.
Playoff hockey is cooler.
Stanley Cup Final hockey is cooler.
SCF Overtime hockey is cooler.
SCF Double Overtime hockey is coolest.
Sleep is overrated.
Leaving for work this morning, I looked over and saw what was left behind in the cul-de-sac - a hockey net, scattered sticks, and the remnants of what had to be a 15-20 kid street hockey game last night.
And it hit me… I live at Topsail. A beach community in North Carolina. Yet these kids are choosing to play hockey in the street instead of the “traditional” Southern sports you’d expect around here.
That’s what the Carolina Hurricanes @Canes have done for this state. They didn’t just build a fanbase, they grew the game. It’s honestly amazing seeing hockey take root in places as random as a beach town cul-de-sac. 🏒🌴 Happy Gameday!!!

@DudespostingWs I’ve always thought this is the best part of that moment. I wonder what was going through their minds as they watched team USA celebrate like that. It’s almost like they were envious that it meant so much to them. Such an incredible moment!
Joe Flacco went on a rant with @bykevinclark about how football 15 years ago was tougher.
“I don’t think it should be roughing when they land on us. Or being slapped on the head is roughing. It affects games in a negative way.”
Full clip is must-watch.
