What food or beverage was he talking about?
The new federal guidance on drinking says people should limit their alcohol consumption, though it no longer lists specific amounts.
And last question for you.
This week, the NHL goalie who fundamentally changed the game of hockey died at the age of 94.
Before Glenn Hall came along, goalies spent almost the entire game standing up.
But Hall started dropping to his knees so he could spread his lower legs out on the ice and basically block the entire net.
If you watch a hockey game today, almost every goalie uses that technique.
Your question, what is it called?
Don't worry, there are hints, there are hints.
I will give you a few phrases that use the word.
Think the blank effect, a blank knife, or float like a blank.
The answer?
It's called the butterfly style, which brought Hall way closer to the ice.
And fun fact, I guess it's fun.
He was doing this before goalies wearing masks was standard and he had the scars to prove it.
Over the course of Hall's career, he estimated he got over 300 stitches from flying pucks.
After one shot on goal left him with a big gash and knocked out a tooth, he said he remembered a dentist telling him how lucky he was.
He said he replied through swollen lips, I don't feel lucky.
That is it for the news quiz.
I'm going to go count my teeth.
