Why?? I'm being serious here. Trying to be civil (no insults). Why are you dismissing what I've said with solid points and not providing any of your own??

Multiple sources have said that this chipup thing doesn't affect him in his draft. What evidence do you have to support your stance?? I've provided mine, but you keep " " with nothing to support it.

Leg and core strength more important in hockey. Strong arms helps how?? Skating?? No. Shooting?? no? it's way down the list of importance.

This is embarrassing for you, if you seriously do not know.. You have never worked out in any serious way if you are serious.

I just think Bix means in this time in his life and shape,should be,that he should be able to a pullup.
- nbboy



And now he can according to article posted by pinksock... and it matter how?? It doesn't affect his ranking. It means very little to hockey, far down the list.

Seriously, if he can't understand how upperbody strength can help a hockey player..

But apparently it does NOT affect your shooting..

Just crazy stuff.

NEW YORK – When Gary Roberts showed up for his first training camp in Calgary, he was able to do two chin-ups. These days, in case you haven’t noticed, he’s a fitness freak. Brett Hull’s teammates in Jr. A hockey nicknamed him ‘Pickle’ in deference to his endomorphic body type. And Drew Doughty, who is currently dominating the Stanley Cup final, had body fat in excess of 20 percent in his draft year. Mario Lemieux used to finish near the bottom of the Pittsburgh Penguins roster when it came to bench press in pre-season testing.

So the fact that Sam Bennett of the Kingston Frontenacs could not complete one chin-up at the NHL scouting combine recently is an interesting, and amusing, story, but all it means is that he’s clueless. Like a lot of the kids in the draft, Bennett probably believed until now that he was working really, really hard off the ice. And while it might create a red flag for some teams, anyone passing on him because he can’t do a chin-up – actually he reported on Monday that he can now do two – risks ignoring the player who might turn out to be the best of the 2014 draft.

More posts criticizing without any answers. You know what people are called that criticize but repeatedly fail to provide answer are??

How many times do you have to be asked for the answer?? I don't think I'm being unreasonable here?? I don't think I'm being a jerk?? Honesty want to hear your response.

If Suarez isn't 100% we have a great chance. Uruguay's back line is pretty weak too. They are beatable. Also, Italy have an older team and the young guys with pace could surprise.
