Understanding NHL play-by-play announcers: a Masterpost
D to D: not a gay porn thing, defensemen to defensemen
Fans on it: when a player completely misses the puck, which is usually right in front of them. when this happens point and laugh.
Dropping the shoulder: refers to someone throwing a clean hit, if the shoulder is dropped that means they’re aiming away from the head.
Sends it deep: also not a gay porn thing, refers to someone trying to clear the puck out of their zone, usually happens during a power play
pass cut: someone was being stupid and decided to pass to a guy and didn’t notice the 6 foot + grown man RIGHT IN THEIR WAY.
The slot: a place on the ice right in front of the net where people score a lot. if the other team ends up in yours, just start crying.
a couple of finns: no fish are on the ice, just people from finland
[blank] is riding him hard: defending him closely, very possibly a gay porn thing
good look: has surprisingly little to do with the eyes, basically a good shot
tape to tape: a clean pass, refers to the tape on the stick blade.
where momma hides the cookies: reference to the top shelf, as in the puck goes into the net high. sometimes they’re gluten free cookies.
tumbling muffin: Boston Bruins announcer Jack Edwards loves these, they probably sell them at Dunkin Donuts. Or David Krejci saved the bruins asses again and sent the puck own the ice. either way. mostly a boston thing.
