from Arthur Staple at Blue Notes,
An old hockey term for a punishing assortment of wind sprints and no-puck drills to punish hockey players for poor performance.
Or, a new term for the Rangers, who went through 35 minutes of brutal sprints and exercises today, when Tom Renney decided his team’s inability to drive to the net and create scoring chances had driven him to his breaking point.
“I had a pretty good practice lined up,” said Renney, who had not dropped such a hammer in any of his three-plus seasons as Rangers coach. “We were planning to do some good things. But maybe we did the best thing we could have done for ourselves today.”
continued and the title of the post is “The Bad Skate”. Hope it is just a typo…
