Pushed To The Limit

Great team photos from this summer's grueling start of the season: (via: Suzanne Kukuris!)

"THE RED ROCKS SMOKER"
This intensive daylong work-out is lead by Team Trainer, Ryan Herzog. 
Held at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the team underwent hours of strenuous physical, strength and endurance testing in the brutal heat of August.
 
I personally wasn't there, however I heard that running up many flights of stairs was part of this intensive training session.... the most difficult included running up the stairs in the scorching sun carrying a team mate on your back!



Hockey Trivia Question

Question: 

Who holds the record for most goals in one NHL season?

Answer:

Wayne Gretzky set the record for most goals in one NHL season by scoring 92 goals for the Edmonton Oilers in 1981-82.

Gretzky also holds second place on the single-season list, with an 87-goal season in 1983-84. In all, he has four of the top ten goal-scoring seasons in NHL history.

The only other players to score more than 80 goals in a season are Brett Hull (86 in 1990-91) and Mario Lemieux (85 in 1988-89).
