Stephen A. Smith Doesn’t Know The Rules Of A Major Professional Sport
The NHL hasn’t had ties since 2004.
During SportsCenter today, noted yeller and NBA analyst Stephen A. Smith was asked which streak is more impressive: The Miami Heat’s 14-game win streak or the Chicago Blackhawks’ 22-game point streak.
Okay, but the Blackhawks haven’t lost a single game this season! (They have 19 wins and three shootout losses, which still count as a point in the system the NHL adopted in 2004.)
Huh, what ties?
But Stephen, the last time there was a tie in the NHL was April 4, 2004!
8. Barack Obama was still a Senator.
In fact, this picture was the earliest picture of Obama in Getty Images. The photo was taken on April 4, 2004.
11. Phil Mickelson had yet to win a major tournament.
He won his first Masters seven days later.
12. The first iPhone was still three years away.
13. The Curse of the Bambino was still totally real!
And Nomar was still the Red Sox shortstop.
14. Check out his entire, confused rant:

I’ve never understood the hate for hockey in America. It’s fast like basketball, hard-hitting like football, and it fills the gap between football and baseball seasons. Why it does not catch on it beyond me

Hockey is and always will be a sport. Just because it isn’t as mainstream as the other “major” sports doesn’t make it not a sport. It is hands down better than basketball. It has some of the most passionate fans in the world. And Stephen A. Smith is an idiot. Has been and always will be. I cringe every time I hear something come out of his mouth.

Yeeeeah, except the NHL isn’t and shouldn’t be called a major professional sport. This is a sport that gets 900,000 viewers for the Flyers vs. Penguins game two weeks back and that’s considered “huge ratings”. Sorry, hockey is a fringe sport and Stephen A. Smith not knowing there aren’t ties in the sport isn’t a big deal. Tough shit, Matt Kiebus.
