I know, I know.  Non-hockey fans will say, “Where’s the puck?  I can’t see the puck!”.  Well, here are some things you can see.  The blood on Cote’s face after the fight roughly 1:45 into the highlight reel, the complimentary blood on his pugilist partner.  The athletic goal-saving saves from a goaltender in his eighth professional hockey game.  The toothless smile of a minor league hockey player, Darroll Powe, called up and scoring a goal in an NHL game.  The see-saw anticipation of goal for, goal against keeping you on the edge of your seat until the last 8 seconds.  Appreciate those things, and you’ll learn to see the puck.  Trust me.
