Maybe Heywood Jablome will get his letter in next week
Sometimes I believe in God. From Damien's latest mailbag:
Q: If the NHL wants more scoring why have offsides? Wouldn't
eliminating offsides increase scoring? See N.L.L. for an example of a
league with no offsides and lots of scoring.
- Phil McKrackin, Toronto
A: Well, the NHL doesn't really seem to want more scoring. Moreover, I don't think anybody wants to see a game where players could just loiter in the offensive zone while the play is going on in their own end. That would just fundamentally alter the game.
I wonder if Damien is going to gut Phil like a fish and drink his blood if he ever finds him?
