While I
waited for Bert & Stijn to show up I chatted a bit with their bassist Olivier
who turned out to be just as an excited NHL-fan as me. Frankly, I was not
prepared as well as pretty surprised to run into a hockey fan from Belgium on
that afternoon.
We talked
about why the New York Rangers lacked
some offense that season. We rapidly came to terms that one big reason
definitely was Rick Nash’s scoring drought. He simply did not live up to the
overall expectations. On the other hand Mats Zuccarello carried the team
offensively and did it all for them that year. Arguably he even was their best
player in the entire season.
In our
conversation we even drifted off to talk about my favorite team, the San Jose Sharks, who remarkably improved
compared to the season before and went on to the Stanly Cup Final for the first
time in franchise history. A run that made me spend too many nights in front of
my laptop. Trust me, time zones can be a real sleep killer.
When Bert
& Stijn showed up I ended my NHL-talk and we sat down on the yet not fully
prepared stage to do the interview.
