  1. Yeah... I wouldn't call Linden a superstar, but he wasn't a common either. If we were using 90's Beckett's terminology, I'd classify him as a semi-star.

  2. Too bad that ice hockey players do not wear the white plastic armor they used to wear in the eighties and seventies. But nowadays they call that equipment instead of stating the obvious and calling it armor which is what it really is.
