NHL: peace and quiet and funny "coyotes"

Recent matches in the regular season NHL gave us some curiosities and the continuation of the series.

All 7 meetings with the «Toronto Maple Leafs» players «Vancouver Canucks» won, and they did not stop to do it for the eighth time, beating at home offers 4: 1.












For the "maple" scored only Michael Grabowski, who scored 11 goals in a season, surpassing the figure at one goal last season.





Black stripe for «Washington Capitals» continues. His eighth (!) Consecutive defeat they received from «Boston Bruins». Having missed the first period of 3 goals, "capital" put pressure and made 67 shots on goal over the two periods. However, it is not saved from defeat 2: 3.











Alexander Ovechkin was only able to participate in one of the goals.





The match was a lot of funny moments. Particularly impressed by Boston fan, managed to jump in the third period to ice. We offer you cutting staff.

















«Atlanta Thrashers» just break outsiders «New Jersey Devils». With just 22 throws, Atlanta players scored 7 goals! For the "devils" could throw a puck Russian forward Ilya Kovalchuk, the result 7: 1 and a failed season for "The Devil».















Finally a real anecdote. By «New-York Rangers» come «Phoenix Coyotes». Before the game, it turned out that Ilya Bryzgalov became ill and could not even be a reserve goalkeeper.





Reserve goalkeeper could not call from the farm club since he did not get to the beginning of the match! The way out was a comedy and dangerous. The club learned that in New York City is home to the amateur goalie Tom Fenton, who played two seasons in the university team. There was no escape, and they signed a one-day contract with Fenton (pictured in the background).



Fortunately, "Coyotes" did not use his services, but the meeting of the "Rangers" lost in shootouts, a total of 4: 3.
