Hockey is sport safely played on the ground, or ice. So, what happens when you take a hockey player and dangle their skates from a very high building?
“You OK?” Yanni Gourde asked.
“I don’t know,” Tyler Johnson replied. “I’m scared.”https://t.co/TUU5XCwkgf via @NHLdotcom

Ondrej Palat was named the team’s player of the week! Two goals, four points, nine shots. Not bad for three games of work. [NHL dot com]
After being held off the scoresheet in Tuesday’s loss to the Rangers, Palat put together his finest performance of the season in a wild 7-6 overtime win over the Devils. Palat finished the game with a +4 rating after scoring twice and adding an assist on Tyler Johnson’s OT winner. It was Palat’s first three-point game since 2017.

The Game
Not hockey, but this radio call is awesome.
Kevin Harlan’s Westwood One radio call of the cat on the field is, as you might expect, an all-time great call. How much of a pro is Harlan? He worked a sponsor read into it. pic.twitter.com/3x0MVNEHNY

Don’t forget, the Buffalo Sabres are also in Sweden this week! Check out the news surrounding them. [NHL dot com]
“We’re proud to be ambassadors for the National Hockey League in Europe for that week,” coach Ralph Krueger said. “It’s a break from all club games in Europe. It’s only national teams playing. So, we will definitely be the focal point. That’s a role that we’re embracing.”
