When discussing the “greatest ever” in hockey, a few names come to mind: Kevyn Adams, Eric Tulsky, and even Kris Draper, but one that many seem to forget is Pavel Datsyuk, who is the best of all of them.

Firstly, Datsyuk is certainly better at defensive analysis than all others in the “goat” conversation, as can easily be shown by his 3 selke trophies. Now one might say that there are players like Bergeron who have more selke trophies, however, it’s important to realize that Datsyuk played far less games than Bergeron, and in a much tougher era, it’s almost certain that, had he played any longer, Datsyuk would have achieved 4, 5, maybe even 6 selke trophies, because everyone who watched him knew he was always the best play analyst on the ice.

Secondly, Pavel Datsyuk’s offensive analysis, despite what others say, is far better than Tulsky, Adams, or anyone else to ever watch others lace up the skates. Sure, he may have less points than lots of other players, and sure, he may have been sub point per game throughout his career, but Datsyuk’s ability to get the puck into the zone, and keep it there with his unmatched stick handling ability meant that even though he didn’t run up the score, he always knows the right thing to put his team in a position to win.

Lastly, Datsyuk’s team needs him. Gretzky was good, but his team won the cup once they traded him, and got better once he was fired as a coach and he never won a cup again without his stacked roster, McDavid is ok, but he has continued to be exposed in the playoffs time after time. Datsyuk on the other hand was so vital to his team’s success, that they made the playoffs every year that he was on the team, and the second he left, they missed it.

In conclusion, though you may not be willing to admit it, Datsyuk is probably the best GM candidate in hockey history, and if you need any more convincing, I have a whole playlist of YouTube videos to show you to demonstrate his deception skills.…

I’ve been a Rush fan for a long time, and was pumped to go on this new tour, unfortunately my old Rush tshirts don’t fit anymore so I decided to look online for some new ones. When I looked on Amazon, every single shirt is just the Starman with his bare ass buttcheeks staring at me, I tried looking at the next page, more of it, some even without the star which is pretty weird because like he’s not even starman at that point. I couldn’t find any of the 2112 cover without him. I figured that’s fine, I’ll just look into Moving pictures, my favorite album, and was about to order a shirt, but then I realized all the frames they were carrying? Guess what, some comedian added naked dudes onto them, only one was the starman so idk what the idea with that was. Alright, I figured Hemispheres is my second or third favorite album, sure there is a naked dude on it but that’s just part of the cover, I can stomach that, you know what they did? THEY GOT RID OF THE PERSON WHO ISNT NAKED, like why? They replaced him with a floating brain, which is stupid because they were already standing on a brain but whatever. I figured I’d go down the list, Permanent waves? Replaced the woman with a naked dude. Signals? Replaced the dog with a naked dude painted up (gotta bleach my eyes later ngl), fly by night? The reflections in the owls eyes were naked dudes. I can’t even get a shirt with just the name written out without it being naked dudes doing the YMCA. I don’t have any issue with people who liked naked dudes, but is it too much to ask for a Rush Tshirt that doesn’t have any of them? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

So some of you might remember, but we did a crowd fund to pay for Brad Marchand to do a cameo for this sub, we reached our goal, however Brad has not opened his cameo up since then, it’s been 6 months, so we decided to poll the community if they would rather we get someone else to do a cameo, or keep waiting it out. In the event we get someone who has cameos less expensive than Marchand’s, we will either get multiple, or donate leftover money to charity, most likely the Mario Lemiux foundation.
