Mikhail Grabovski. didn't know this guy was such a character :clap: the last line is thae best


In March, 2008, after being a healthy scratch for a game against the Phoenix Coyotes, Grabovski left the Montreal Canadiens and flew to Los Angeles to consult with his agent. The incident prompted his trade to the Toronto Maple Leafs that summer.[7]

In January 2009, Grabovski was involved a scuffle with fellow Belarusian Sergei Kostitsyn during a game between the Maple Leafs and Canadiens. The two had been in a feud since Grabovski’s days with the Canadiens. Prior to the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, the head of the Belarusian national hockey program had to intervene in order for the two players to be able to coexist on the same team.[7]

On February 19, 2010, Grabovski was arrested in Vancouver after getting involved in a street scuffle. He was out of the Maple Leafs lineup with a broken wrist at the time of the arrest and was in Vancouver attending the 2010 Winter Olympics. Court documents alleged that Dylan Richardson was punched in the face and knocked unconscious by Grabovski, who then assaulted Richardson's wife by also punching her in the face.[8]

On February 9, 2013, Grabovski was accused of biting Max Pacioretty of the Montreal Canadiens during a scrum along the boards. The NHL conducted a telephone hearing with the players involved, but couldn’t determine conclusively if Grabovski had bitten Pacioretty.[9] However, on May 20, 2013, more than three months later, Grabovski admitted that he did in fact bite Pacioretty, stating in an interview "He was choking me and I bit him. Don’t stick your hands where you shouldn’t."[10]

On July 3, 2013, after learning that his contract was being bought out by the Toronto Maple Leafs, Grabovski was very critical of Toronto coach Randy Carlyle in an expletive-filled interview with TSN. "I play in the fucking Russian KHL, I make lots of fucking points and what’s going to happen? He make me fucking play on the fourth line and he put me in the playoffs on the fourth line and third line again", said Grabovski. "I don’t feel any support from this fucking idiot."[11]
 
well it is kind of interesting stuff if you're looking to model hockey.
Really best if everybody keeps their mouth shut and allows the possibility to make money at it.
Now they seem to be saying shooting % is luck related whereas # shots is not.

I'll say the opposite. Outshooting the competition does not = success
