How do you define cool?

That was not cool. That was GODlike.

I've been trying to teach my son, who plays defence, how to shoot a reliable, low slapshot and how to lead a rush from behind the net over the past few weeks. I think I need to find a Bobby Orr highlites reel somewhere.

I need to start talking to you more.


;) Thanks.

Not too many would appreciate that. Now ask me about Dizzy.

you ever try to put Nefertit and Tutu together in a phrase?
 
my philosophy on whats cool:
someone who doesnt follow the crowd, they do their own thing, have an attitude (yet doesnt act pompous), and inspires a cult following, and their legacy lives on for decades.
I can only think of 5 people who fit this description-
Hendrix, James Dean, Henry Rollins, Lovecraft, and the Marquis de Sade.
There are very few who can pull this off.

One day the slapshot just showed up on my doorstep. I had a coach that wanted a high slapshot to the goalies head in the first period and then at ankle level for the rest of the game. That year we won the state title.

Truth is I score more with wristshots, even from outside.

I totally agree with Rollins. The man is so cool, he's hot.

And Cool just *is*. You are, or you're not.

:cool:

Yes; I was explaining the concept of early intimidation to him the other day...picking out their toughest player and leveling him early; trying to hit the goalie in the head on the first shift...all important tactics to give you the space you need to wheel.
