The name Ivan Ivan drives me nuts.

"My dad's name is Marek, and his last name is Ivan. Since Marek and Ivan are both first names, people were always wondering whether his name was Marek or Ivan, so he made it easier for me. I like it and it’s special because there are not many people with my name."
just wait until his brother ivan ivan ivan makes it to the nhl

Rangers analyst (and former NHL goalie) Valliquette whining about Jack Hughes skilling it up

Is that dude aware he's in an entertainment business?

Some response from the team – sure, why not if they chose so. This guy seems genuinely clueless tho

Goalies hate when you do anything other than shoot, so it's not surprising coming from an old goalie - still ridiculous though

Ivan translates to the name John in English. So its like being named John John or Juan Juan lol.

As a goalie, you do everything you can to stop the puck. Stands to reason that skaters do everything they can to score.

Yeah it sucks to get dunked on, but damn does it feel good to stop a move like that because you know the player just got embarrassed.

Chicago just fired their coach, which is kind of shocking. What did they expect the results to be?

probably won't happen, but i'm still hoping bedard ends up being an epic bust

he'd only have 14 pts on the season if you take away the two games against the ducks

Someone pointed out that 9 of his goals last year came in the first 13 games. 14% of his career points have come against the Ducks lol
