“You know in your head if it’s a penalty or not. Whether it gets called or not, sometimes it’s a different story.”

Finding the line between what you can and can't get away with in the NHL playoffs is tricky. It also could be the key to victory.

My story:

In the NHL playoffs, finding the line — and sometimes crossing it — is half the battle
In the playoffs, NHL players do absolutely anything and everything they can to grind their opponents down: "It is a fine line."

If you’re a hockey fan in Minnesota, you know about the All Hockey Hair Team.

The videos have now been around long enough that some included players have made the NHL. We broke down their hair in high school and their hair now ⬇️

END 1: The Rangers are tied 1-1 with Winnipeg. The power play got going again with a Mika Zibanejad goal, but New York allowed yet another five-on-five goal. Jets lead 12-9 in shots.

Gabriel Landeskog’s Game 6 was glorious. He won a Stanley Cup.

And he hasn't appeared in an NHL game since.

But he's still trying to come back, he tells @peterbaugh.bsky.social.
