I don’t know why, but I expected him to wear the goal keeping headgear in the picture.
Man, I so want hockey to have more global love.
It kinda requires ice
Nice
oooooooh fun, I watch the Giants play whenever they play in my area, I’ll be able to point to the keeper/on the bench and go oh btw that’s Cech there
He made millions, saw the world, became a domestic and continental football champion and now he’s living our his actual boyhood dream. Cech is the man.
Goddamn legend.
doesn’t matter where, doesn’t matter for who, the man just loves stopping shots
I thought he already joined years ago
Think Cech is severely underrated and left out when it comes to all time goalkeeper lists(in football lol).
I think pre-helmet Cech at Chelsea was arguably the best stretch of goal-keeping the world has ever seen. Even post helmet he pulled out games like the CL final against Bayern at Bayern where he was an absolute colossus between the sticks.
Is is just because Chelsea of that period is so hated that he doesn’t seem to get his due?
A disproportionate amount of the praise for that Chelsea team goes to Terry. Even though he wasn’t even the best defender on that team.
His near post was basically a wide open door at Arsenal, and he was atrocious at penalties. His reflexes were pretty poor, so it genuinely boggles my mind he would be employed as an ice hockey goalie!? His ass ain’t no fine wine, and those reflexes won’t have improved.
he was atrocious at penalties.
For one thing who judges a GK on pens anyway? For another, Cech is literally famous for being great at penalties.
Go re-watch that CL final I talked about. He saves one in normal time and a couple in the shootout, as well as diving the right way every. single. time.
This is a canon event. This is a mythical version of Peter Cech.
Dominik Hasek 2.0 coming
This guy has a dope life outside of football, hes also pretty good at playing the drums
Jose going to appear and park the Zamboni
I admire how committed he still is to sport, willing to move from Oxford to Belfast even with the career he’s had in Football
This is actually incredibly impressive. The EIHL is not a slouch league.
Pretty sure he has always been very serious about hockey, most likely would’ve gone pro if not for his football career
I remember ages ago him saying he wanted to play more hockey as a child but his parents couldn’t afford it.
The actual helmet he wore for those wondering.
Chelsea and Arsenal badge on each side.
Proper tinpot that
Look like Dark Helmet.
Probably shouts “Keep firing, Assholes” during shooting practice.
