tiger woods today said about hockey " i dont think anyone really watches it".. and yes that may be somewhat true as his lack of playing makes more news than the winner of the Stanley cup.. but still after witnessing Game 5 on monday night, i have to say these are the toughest athletes out there. to get hit square in the face by a puck at full speed and close range, something that could kill you - and then come back?? to go off the ice to get stitches to close a huge gash and again, return to the game? to power through shoulder and knee injuries to help your team in the biggest games? take one look at the IR list in baseball or heck even football for that matter and you have guys with a "sore" hamstring who opt not to play. Ok so maybe you dont watch hockey tiger but you have to respect it. walking, WALKING! (oh and not even carrying your own clubs mind you) a few miles is nothing. Go Pens!
