"The NHL is an 85% League"

[That Aud Smell]

This is really just a definitional problem. Just define that 85% as 100%, and, boom, problem solved.

Does that make the NBA a 50% league.  They don’t seem to take it seriously until the playoffs.

So from here forward in every GDT will there be mentions of 85% if they win, and 15% if they lose? 😂

See, folks, THIS is how to meme.  The quote is there, it matches the scene, and it makes sense in context.

Have you ever eaten 110% of a pizza that you ordered?

Nathan Mackinnon tailors his workouts to peak in the spring. Tweeners have to peak out in training camp. Yes 100% this is true, players plan all around it.

But if you redefine your 85% to 100%, how will you possibly compete with the players that are already giving 110%? They'll be giving... like... 125%.

I've eaten 110 percent of a pizza. GERD.

Do you slow people need an explanation?

I'm sorry that I try to make this place a little smarter and dare I say classier.

I'm done. You people.

Ha. Everyone's %'s get re-defined, I guess?

Makes sense to me - the bench shrinks down to like 3 players in the playoffs and you have a condensed game schedule.

There has got to be a Yogi-ism in here somewhere.  Maybe “NHL players give 110% 100% of the time in 85% of their games”?

In terms of points per game, Tage Thompson is producing at 156% of what he did last year.  That's way more than 110%.
