Three Stars of the Game
One thing I love about hockey is the Three Stars of the Game at the end of each game. This has been going on for some sixty years, if not longer. Well, I made the suggestion to David that since he’s got so many readers following the game in real-time that they would be best positioned to award the stars of the game.
Well, David ran with it, and now, he allows fans to record the stars, and he’ll compile all the data. He calls it a collaborative effort with me, but let’s just say that I provided the 1% inspiration and he supplied the 99% perspiration. Why MLB has never done this, I don’t know. It’s just a great thing in hockey.
