Think we'll see a "New Hilary Knight" in the younger generation playing right now, or do you think we'll be waiting a minute for someone able to take up that mantle?
Big shoes to fill!
I don’t know the American players well enough to make those speculations, but the thing about people like Knight is that they aren’t easily replaced by athletes who are simply ‘good at hockey’, her leadership and her drive to grow the game are also a part of why she is who she is and why her impact is so immense.
Eventually all records are broken, you see talent surges and the game improves over time, but I don’t see the void she leaves behind being filled anytime soon.
original under the cut
yayyy jets
on the other side of this first weekend of playoffs a couple of notes:
holy shit that was so much fun
my bracket is shot to pieces
HAX IN A MINECRAFT EVENT????
no way in hell we have a new one after like two days
congrat sanjinhu!!!
the fact that we got 96 points and didnt make it still frustrates me
our boys did so good and it didnt even matter
although i am hopeful for next year, they exceeded my expectations immensely this year and we will kill it next season
we also have such a young team, the future is only looking good
i hate the part of depression that’s like all the things that bring me joy are empty and i can’t do anything. like come on bitch i know you love book can you just be happy about book :/
