The Polak Score

Related Topics: Roman Polák, Owen Wilson, Buffalo

All goals are good goals. From the water-bottle-popping one-timer to the puck trickling through a mess of people in front of the net past the goalie, goals are fun and good.

Similarly, the NHL continues to inject more goals into the game, literally however possible. Goalie padding has gotten smaller and there are penalties for delays of game in an attempt to keep tired defenders on the ice. Goals are the lifeblood of our sport, and they keep us watching. This is what hockey ultimately comes down to: all goals are good goals, and all goals count the same.
