They are seriously saying this is the most intense game/crowd in Utah history lmaooooo

If we had Kiviranta it would be 5-2

The scratch on the way is Stankoven. He got demoted to the 4th line. There was one puck race late in the first period in the Stars zone where he both lost the race across the ice and then lost the battle along the boards to set up Utah getting some pressure, and I think that’s what got him moved down.

Can someone explain how every J in Europe is pronounced like a Y except for Vejmelka
Among Germanic languages English is the weird one. All the other Germanic languages pronounces J/Y similar(ish) except English which does pronounce the letters the other way around. Non-Germanic hockey nations such as Czechia, Slovakia and Finland have deep historical ties to the Germanic world which would be my guess as to why they use J/Y the same way.

Other non-Germanic European languages I don't know about but from a google search I found that the original 'j' in old-Latin was pronounced similar to the English 'y' in words such as 'yes'. So maybe English is universally weird when it comes to it J/Y pronounciation.

God Jul (Merry christmas) (pronounced Yul)

I'm willing to agree if you admit that Utah HC has the best name in the NHL.
They only have that dumbass no name thing for one season so I'll take that, lol. But seriously that's some weak shit. They had months to pick a name and couldn't do it? Or did they just want to sell a ton of jerseys because they'll potentially be worth more one day in the future because it was only one season? And then sell them again in a few years as a "throwback" 3rd jersey
