And a pet peeve of mine is the news headlines after a game in which I didn’t score. Even if we win and my line- the fourth line- held the opposition to NOTHING or maybe were even on the plus side and I unfortunately wasn’t up for a point I’ll get the “tough night” bs. We did our effing job! I try to do the little things like play sound defense, wear the opposition down with a good forecheck, and force an offensive faceoff so the Bedard line can hop over the boards and inherit offensive zone ice.
Edit: I’ve even received “tough night” with an assist. Sorry if I’m not McJesus. Lol
