What other NHL records would you like us to publish?
Ooof , I was thinking it was a 13 minute shift lol
poop
We used to skate from around 8 or 9 AM until the sun started going down with occasional breaks while growing up and into adulthood. I grew up on a lake. If the ice was thick enough to play hockey, we were out playing hockey. It was a group of 10 or 15 of us but everybody brought a shovel in case somebody forgot to bring a shovel and water to drink if we didn't just chop a hole in the ice and drink the lake water and we would skate all day. I don't know why a professional level athlete can't skate 10 or 20 minutes straight. We played on a lake where there was no boards and no boundaries so you were skating however far the puck ended up going if somebody missed the pass but the goals were set up and that was the boundary there was no outline if you wanted your team to have the park then you better go chase the puck down and get it because if the other thing got it is their possession when they get back. These guys are professional athletes getting paid in millions of dollars. Don't get me wrong, I have a tremendous level of respect for these athletes. They are the best in the world of what they do. We were kids teenagers and eventually adults skating on a lake playing just as hard but with only gloves skates and winter clothes on, no pads. I just don't understand it.
Those jerseys are so nice, they need to make those their regular jerseys
Its a joke to be honestā¦ its not as if he is that good that sitting for a bit diesnt help moreā¦.
Those jerseys are so damn beautiful and Iām a wings fan š¤£
Crazy how 2022 was 4 years ago…
This pass from Islanders player at 5:14 was pure shite, never seen such stupid/terrible decision and game awareness.
Back when McLeod was on the team š¢
bros just trying to catch his minutes back up
type of shifts my teammates play
Title and description has three different statements:
-Longest Shift in NHL History
-modern-era record
-longest shift ever recorded
make up your minds.
I miss Bill and the 2022-23 team. Those were good days.
Donāt know whatās more impressiveā¦ Hughesā shift, the fact that the Devils couldnāt score a goal in 6 minutes of 6v5, or the fact that the Islanders couldnāt score on an empty net in 6 minutes of game time.
Those jerseys š¤®
Why are the devils wearing panthers jerseys?
Keenan left kovalev on the ice for around 5 minutes. He scored a goal to close out the shift
Someone should send this to Jackā¦maybe he can remember what itās like when he had heart and his team played with heartā¦
Remember when everybody loves Jack Hughes on the Devils and Hughes vibes were high
Weak sauce.ā¦. Iāve played entire games at 11pm in beer league.
This is how he won Tates heart ā¤ļø š
I remember this as an Islanders fan. Crazy how the devils have fallen since that year. Sorry devil fans.
i miss this season. such dark times us devils fans are in now.
Kovalev had a crazy long shift too. Mike Keenan skated him almost 8 minutes. He thought that was a reward. Scored at the end of that monster shift.
Whoever wants Jack glas boy hughes can have him, as an extra we give you Fitzgerald….
Nonsense. Esposito used to regularly play very long shifts – like 7 minutes. They have only kept records of shift time since 2008 so the record should just say "longest shift since 2008".
What's the EDM song playing at 7:00?
1 goal and 2 saves. Not a bad shift at all.
Are they showing this video now to try to make us believe Jack Hughes isn't injury prone? Nice try
I beg to differ. A guy in beer league accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago.
But I lose points if I do this in NHL 26?
I dont find this very impressive considering I do a lot more than this every time i play pickup, and I have done a ton more playing soccer for 120 minutes with no water.
