Smite replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
A little late adding to the topic, but I thought I would mention that I am now 4 for 4 at the Joe. Yes the Wings won all 4 games Ive attended there...... mabye its time I get off my wallet and buy more tickets
its called Invesco Field at Mile High now, so..... yes still Mile High.
I like the Maple Leafs vs Wings at the big house. But Avs vs Canes (Nordiques vs Whalers) at Mile high would be cool. The could wear the Throwback jerseys.
Agreeing with KillrBuckeye......
I am not going to get all scientific. I was able to move the net as a peewee (and I did not have the hardest shot on the team) if I got a good shot off and hit the middle of the post high enough in practice it would move maybe an inch at most.
Mind you the pegs were not in and I am sure we did not use "NHL regulation" nets and it was around 1987. But you need to factor the ice in the equation. Something else is the puck is make of rubber and the netting is elastic.
Can it be done..... yes
Is it still a fake... I think so or some fancy editing was done.
