This Day In Hockey History (11/16)

Today’s Hump Day edition of This Day takes a look at one of the best snipers in the game….ever.  This player literally had the gold touch, as he scored 50 goals almost blindfolded.  It is scary to think a guy could score that many goals that fast but yes this New York Islander did so.  The moment comes from 25 years ago today and as always the video comes first.  This guy surely could always score!

BallHype: hype it up!

A good but a bit of an odd moment to start off your Monday. Hell, if I was JD I really might have been rattled but he would not be on this night. Here is the moment for everyone.
