The Day the Hockey World Stood Still

June 29th, 2016. A day forever remembered in the minds of hockey fans everywhere. In a span of less than 30 minutes three major pieces of news broke that shook the NHL to its core. Now 8 years on from that fateful day we'll look back on each of the moves made and the drastic consequences they left on the League.

Right as I watched this video, Stamkos just got signed by Nashville

[@SansLikespizza]

As a wings fan, how did we miss on Stamkos twice.

[@bmac4]

Almost underselling just how much Taylor Hall dragged the Devils in 2017-18. He had 93 points, nobody else on his team had more than 52. He was 6th in the league in scoring but no player that year came close to being as much of a reason for his team's success as Hall was for that otherwise mediocre Devils team. And man reflecting on that 2021 Habs is so bittersweet. That team gave everything they had for a chance for lord Stanley and Weber and Price would never be the same after, that run effectively ended their careers.

[@igarvin1435]

Last time the Hart was given to a deserving player. It’s just been a glorified Art Ross trophy

[@sharkhaos_probably]

Subscriber count is an utter lie. This is elite hockey content. Keep it upz

[@bigsquigms]

I went to look expecting like 5-10k. My jaw hit the floor when it said 190

[@GlazerKing]

🤖🤖🤖

[@danielx1406]

​@bigsquigms it reads 373 as of now, but I was not expecting only 3 digits. This is a high quality video

[@blickett]

⁠@@danielx1406yes, but 384 in 8 videos is impressive. It took me 3 years and 100 videos to get 300 subs

[@SENSTALK]

Agreed

[@dave.station935]

And now stammer has signed in Nashville…he’s a Bolt forever in our hearts 😢⚡️ great video btw

[@walmartian422]

Oh shit they traded sergachev jeannot and recent addition duclair away also. I just read that Stamkos himself didn’t want to leave this is a business decision and he’s getting old so tampa is probably eyeing younger players. Still sucks though the team won’t be the same.

[@xViperGTR]

It sucks knowing how Montreal had both Price and Weber battling through injuries in the 2021 run and then retired almost right after

[@GillesPaquet-Allaire]

The standing ovation Subban receive at his comeback to Montreal the first game with Nashville was amazing.

[@zygo2971]

really well put together video bro. well done, keep it up

[@chilliisgreen7722]

“if underrated was a person it would be this guy”. - some kid from the comments Okay but actually, that’s such good quality content from someone with under 100 subscribers. respect dude

[@sadsnowman7213]

Great video man, keep up the good work!

[@tmoore4075]

"After the Leafs suffered their annual 7 game choke job." lol

[@bradleymacklin7896]

Great vid boss. This is some quality content.

[@VenintheGOAT]

this feels like a urinatingtree video

[@Pinz_OG]

Awesome video bro, can’t wait to see more quality content from you

[@SouthNewsNetwork]

Get this man more subscribers content is amazing quality

[@xViperGTR]

It feels so cursed knowing Nashville had Subban and now have Stamkos. Guys I felt should’ve retired with their teams

[@stalx8]

great video man keep it up

[@ShimaHD]

You cooked with this video. Keep it up. By the way, amazing music tastes. Love the Fire Emblem soundtrack.

[@captrex7153]

Fire content bud. You deserve so many more subscribers

[@avimilo2629]

Great vid you got a new sub keep up the good work

[@habsfanhighlights1317]

This channel is goated! It baffled me when you had 740 subs

[@konoilers]

Video deserves more than 3k views my man

[@VainoTatti]

You earned my sub mate.

[@_KroW_]

Great video, great editing, hope you blow up soon 👍

[@Tomsthebomb]

Great vid!! Keep it up

[@tylerpaul2331]

I never comment on videos, but this one is different brother. I looked at ur subscriber count and was very surprised, you deserve a lot more

[@MrBeenus]

Amazing video. Just subscribed. GO FLYERS!!!!!

[@Mason-we8gz]

THIS DUDE IS SO DAMN UNDERRATED! HOW DO YOU ONLY HAVE LIKE 107 SUBSCRIBERS?!?

[@Awesometania]

Kudos on the footage of "The Webering".

[@user-fu3ks2mw6y]

one of the greatest video from such a small channel. just earned yourself a new sub!

[@ariccua6101]

The funny part of Ceci for Hall trade between EDM and OTT was that Ceci is on the Oilers right now.

[@HometownHockeyHH]

good intro, hell of a script keep up the good content

[@pascaljutras178]

Stats does not really talk about how Webber got a great impact on the motivation of Habs, he was a real good leader, once Pacioretty and Suban were out this team leaded by Webber was way more bonded...

[@andrewmulligan4018]

Seeing Stammer in Nashville is gonna hurt

[@Lax_edits2010]

I subbed!❤

[@EmpireofAngryCows]

great commentary and an excellent video! i'd recommend turning down the sound effects and maybe speaking a little more slowly, but you've got an incredibly solid foundation for a great channel.

[@Dai_R]

You'll make it big soon.

[@Unholy_Louie]

I think a mention that Weber became a first ballot HoFer would have been appropriate.

[@itsdarkout10]

Huge shoutout to the Arizona ownership. Always willing to take on dead contracts to reach the cap min. You got what you wanted. A new city. Let's see how that plays out.

[@chad_b]

As a leafs fan it cracked me up when you mentioned the leafs suffering their annual seven game choke job lol

[@SylSaintA]

Fire emblem music? I like your style

[@mattycyt5973]

obligatory this is good content so i subscribed comment because yeah this is good content and so i subscribed

[@xavierlafontaine121]

So you're telling me that we could have had Taylor Hall but instead we decided to keep Cody Sissy? Thank god Melnyk is gone 💀

[@sino3467]

Worst defence men on the oilers bro, I’m sorry your team had to feel it

[@jonah7254]

i was watching this at vwork yesterday and got caught and got fired

[@user-qr3so8yz4c]

Hockey deserves better

[@LeoWhalen1933]

I'm happy we don't see alot of moves in the NHL. That's why there are still rivalries unlike the other leagues where the teams are different year to year. If you watch an NBA game all they talk about is where the players are going in free agency😂😂😂

[@goldfingershat]

0:04 Fortunately*** Star players moving around a lot is bad for a league. Look at the NBA, It’s too crazy.

[@phantomxnhlx7628]

I watched Jimmy Hockey recently on awful trades of the decade and his video was awful just casual trying to talk in depth about Hockey, if he has 30k subscribers you’ll be at more soon enough

[@moosinator2948]

well now stamkos is a nashville predator

[@walmartian422]

Yea this sucks

[@RagsLighthouses]

hey Shea's a HoFer now at least

[@veronicafinocchi9550]

Sad to see Stammer go, but he was a defensive liability like sergachev and he is a defenseman. Even kucherov is playing d now. We overpaid guenzel imo, but can't wait for October.

[@DAMNDANNY88]

Annnnnnnddd boom! He’s a pred now. Steamer is gone CANT wait to see lightning fans crying

[@jimstunt9893]

6:40…

[@NateHimmothy]

BRO THIS VID HAS MORE LIKES THAN YOU HAVE SUBS WHICH I THINK IS BULL

[@colehaywood3522]

The shot at the Leafs against Montreal is a little unnecessary there annual seven game choke hi on come on

[@Kurzov]

Edited like a Tree video

[@Grizzology]

Quality video.. Subbed. Don’t forget us day 1s when you make it big

[@bashmo]

legoooooo

[@frankdegarcia]

First 400 subs!

[@StuartSkinner-g7y]

oilers
