My point is that playing a sport on ice with skates is much harder than running on foot. Moving on foot is innate, something we don't need to learn or be taught (with the exception of being a baby). I'm not dissing Brown, again. I'm simply saying that playing hockey requires much more skill than any sport that is played on foot. Call it biased if you'd like.
Fair point, I'm just saying that losing to arguably the greatest football player of all time isn't the worst thing in the world.

This is also the United States.
I'm with you, if ya gonna lose out, Jim Brown is not small potatoes
By the way, I don't know why this is just hitting me now, been going on for years, but every comment from every hockey analyst regarding the NYR's and their fans expectations this year all have to include "....but Ranger fans you have to make the playoffs before you can win the Cup..."
Really? Oh thats how that works
It's like WE were the only ones putting high expectations on this team. And of course that was only a minority of the fans, but the rest are lumped into the generalization.
Also kinda funny seeing that an 8th seed won the Cup last year.
Doubt it. A superstar with a huge ego that appears to be on the decline and carries the highest cap hit in the NHL? Nobody will take that unless they're dumping a bad contract in the process or the Caps agree to eat some of the contract. Too big of a risk.

At this point, I'd consider trading Brad Richards for Ovechkin straight up - how much worse could he possibly be?

DiPietro also admitted injuries, losing and fan hatred over the past 3 years made him think about killing himself at one point.

Do the isles get his cap hit when he fails to report?
