I just wonder if this trade will end Martinsens NHL career. He was barely good enough for the Avs. But I do suspect he could be better with better team mates. He has a good shot, and is pretty good at defending (lots of experience with team Norway). His major downside is that he doesn't read the game good enough on the offense, at least in my opinion. Still cool to have a guy from my area of the world on the Canadiens.

He big and strong.

I hope he does well, he grew up two hours away from where I did.

Norway now has a hockey world record that I doubt ever will be beaten.

A game went to 8 OT. An 8,5 hour game. 217 minutes of active game time.

And they only have one day off before the next game.

Edit: The goalies ended with a staggering 92 and 94 saves
