NHL...Hockey....they work so hard and they have so little to show for it....
Polls and Surveys have Proven...
- 96.7% of Scores in the NHL are due to LUCK
- 54.4% of Scores in MLB are due to LUCK
- 43.0% of Scores in the NFL are attributed to LUCK
- 27.6% of Scores in the NBA are because of Luck
- 09.7% of Scores in the PGA are LUCKY
"I'd rather be LUCKY than Good" Is that True ?
No question they are Great at what they do...but LUCK plays a big part .
Are You Lucky ?

My degree of luck falls somewhere in the middle. Compared to some, I have no luck. Compared to others, I'm as fortuate as they come. I've got family, 3 friends, 2 dogs, a Martin, extra pencils, two back surgeries that seemed to work, shoes I never wear, old newspapers, I used to have alergies to fruit and now, that's pretty much gone....yeah, I'm pretty damn lucky!
Can we get "Mr. Lucky" to comment???
I'm also lucky. The one eye I have works well. I'm told the male appendages I used to have would have worked well, had I been allowed to keep them. The guy who used to walk me, before the klutz fell, feeds me. The french playmate they picked up for me now harasses the new kid next door. And I can still limp up the front steps after I watch half the rabbits scurry away from me every time I go out. Yes, life is good. I am lucky. Smitty the wonder dog.
Those stats are just plain WRONG. The ability to shoot a heavy frozen rubber disc into a small hole over a goaltender's shoulder or through his heavily padded legs while you are flying at top speed across ice and large men with sticks try to decapitate you has nothing to do with luck, it's all SKILL!
When they start paying the PGA on a glacier and the holes can move on you in mid-swing, I'll start believing that luck has more to do with success in hockey than golf.
Just not buying it.
If Blaze would just give Mr. Lucky a little "blog" lesson, he WOULD comment on being lucky. Howsomever, Mr. Lucky ain't so lucky when it comes to computerese! Every time I mention something that's been on the blog, he says: "I don't know how to get into the blog". I even tried to walk him through it one night--not easy when you're on the phone. I thought he "got it", but I guess he didn't. The guy needs a little BLOG help!

Your description of how difficult it is to score a goal in Hockey is Proof that it is Luck when the Puck goes in !
