You copy in text that points to an exception at 6-4-1, which states, in part:

In the NFL rule book it says a kick that goes less than 20 yards is considered onside. Not sure about college.

I would say how hard is trying to do so while not giving a quote that can be used against him.

Or that’s what he linked to as the “thing that happened that we all know about for sure” and it’s covered in the comment. Couldn’t be bothered to hover over the link for a second?

Thanks — I was just about to google to check that date.

Apparently I can’t figure out how to embed a tweet, but this is interesting and sort of obvious too I guess:

Play QB for the last two years?

It’s at least in front of a woman (the lady excitedly golf clapping).

You definitely see this in hockey with European players much better at passing softly to open space and letting players skate onto the puck than N. American players. Ken Dryden wrote that the Russian game of hockey evolved from soccer while in Canada it came from lacrosse and when you see the bigger rinks, and much…

That’s weird because the NFL disagrees with you: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story…

In the NFL you are not allowed to interfere with the fair catcher’s opportunity to catch — meaning you have to let the ball hit the ground. Is that not true in college?

It definitely wasn’t kicked into the ground first — the article above is clear on that.

At least in the NFL that’s different — http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story… — I think. I don’t recall this particular instance, but that’s about all I can find on the topic.

It looked like he was saying “he can’t catch it.” I was actually under the impression that the rule that says you have to let the returner have a chance to catch it was interpreted to mean you have to let it bounce, but I’m clearly wrong. Anyone know if that’s different in the NFL (which is all I watch) or if I’m…

I don’t think you can just say “he had a lot of goals, must have had a great shot” which is what you’re doing here. Luc Robataille, Phil Esposito, and many others “missed” the goalie a lot because they had good enough shots and were willing to pay the price in front of the net. Milan Lucic has a much higher shooting…

I understand what you’re going for, and frankly it’s impossible to call a winner because so many different things factor in. But I wouldn’t put someone like Gretzky in the conversation. Gretzky’s “missing goalies” was a lot different than the guys you’re comparing him to — more about getting empty nets to shoot at…

Also, I don’t think anyone ever considered Gretzky a great shooter of the puck in the traditional sense. He just scored all the time, which obviously means he was effective, but he did it with a little bit above average shot rather than blowing them by people.

I don’t think Holtby or Schmidt could have stopped that solo, it looked like Schmidt’s stick was against Holtby’s pad and they sort of both got it.

There were guys with better releases and more accurate shots (for as awesome as Ovi is he also leads by miles in shots taken, so it’s not like he’s threading a needle every time). Thinking Bossy on both, also Brett Hull re: release. But Ovechkin’s shots move like a 90+ mph knuckleball. I played goal and have coached…
